Title: Message
Thanks to everyone who replied to my hospice Q.
And I did learn something else---the term "hospice" is used in a slightly different way here compared to UK (where I'm from).  In the UK the term is not used for home care for the terminally ill (or at least wasn't when I lived there). It only refers to the physical building.
So yes, you're right---you guys are the hospice providers for pets.

Subject: Re: off-topic: do hospices for pets exist?

I read about a hospice service somewhere on the west coast, but it is like hospice care for humans-- going to the home to help with pain relief, care, etc. for terminally ill animals, rather than a place that takes them.
 
There is an FeLV sanctuary somewhere with a woman who has about 50 positives at any given time and she describes herself as providing them with hospice care. I do not have her info, but my mom might. My mom corresponded with her when I first took in my 6 positives.

Hi all
Just wondering---a friend asked me if I knew if there were hospices for pets. I've never heard of one--has anyone else? Kerry
