Apparently the 7-month-old FIV positive kitty that I posted about recently that the vet techs were trying to save after its owner wanted it PTS after it tested positive caught calicivirus upper respiratory while at the vets and quickly became very ill. The vets decided to put it to sleep. Probably wouldn't have if it hadn't tested positive, and in fact it may well have recovered despite its positive status if treated, but I expect they felt it would require intensive care and they didn't feel they had the time and money to invest in it, especially since it hadn't been adopted. This is very sad, since it had no symptoms when it came in. So Belinda, you can take our ad off the adoption pages (the one that's headed "Help or I'm dead in a week" - poor little kitty, he was going to be euthanized if no home was found, and while everyone scurried around to try to find him a home he caught something that other kitties would maybe easily get over and it proved to be his death sentence anyway). Could you put him on the memorial list?
