This is the list of cats that the vets are holding JUST FOR ME, and would
overwise already be DEAD. I need opinions people, do these sound treatable,
and should we try to get them transported? Tad? Do you have the time to nurse
open sores and that type of severe injury? I'm recommending saving the dilute
calico, sounds like she just needs rehydrated and fed. I'm also demanding they
save the black DSH, because I may know his owner, so he will be held til I can
get picture tomorrow. I'm up in the air about the buff guy with open pressure
sores, and all that mess, he sounds like he is suffering, should I give the OK
to euthanise him guys?
I have no say over the FIV cats, as I don't have fosters for them, so if
they sound like they could be one you are seeking, let me know ASAP, before
they euthanise them!
I have the records for the 3 FeLV cats: I will just list what is
abnormal. Please let me know what you think. I can get pictures
and send them to you if you need them tomorrow.
