Re: Feral cat book

Hideyo, Of course I'm praying for Oreo!  I know how anxious you must be.  How old is he/she?  It's so hard when you have so many.  I was just musing this morning about how much easier it would be to care for everyone, if they were all healthy.  You better not lose that job of yours!  I'm praying for the ferals by your work as well.  I would look for help in rounding up those dogs.  It's a very dangerous situation and no way for them to live.  Life is so hard sometimes. Don't worry about sending me the medication for Gypsy, you have enough on your plate right now.  If you would please email me the exact name and treatment amount/protocol, I'll sit on my vet until she helps me get some in my hot little hand.  Thank you for asking about Gypsy.  Her IBD symptoms have not improved.  It's very frustrating.  I have a call into my vet to see if she has anything else up her sleeve.

My little Shitsu dog, Oreo had a disc injury and started losing control of hind legs, I was very worried because my other dog, JoJo had a similar injury and he became paralyzed within 72 hours.  Though thanks to the surgeon, he can walk again now.  Anyway, we had to watch him very careful for the past week, and I noticed that the condition was getting worse, so I took him to the emergency clinic this week, and the same surgeon who operated on JoJo is operating on Oreo as we speak – Please pray that the surgery and his recovery will go well for Oreo, Nina!   I hope you will enjoy the book.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Nina Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2005 1:45 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Feral cat book   Thanks Hideyo, I just ordered the book from Amazon.  I love the ferals too!

Like you I have had pets of all kinds and I loved them all (even some that were not so lovable.)It makes it easier knowing that they will be there for me when it is my turn to go.
