Good luck Kevin and you are great for going through this effort for your kitty. Not just with the overseas situation but also for making it work with your girlfriend who is allergic. Many people would have given up on your kitty a long time ago and I'm sure she appreciates all you have done for her! Best of luck and keep us posted!

I never did get a return call from the MN sanctuary.
So after Christmas I will be following up with them
again and will also try this one. In the meantime we
had her at the vet Fri. Vet said she seem to be in
great health and the paw hair loss is probably just
her licking as a nervous thing or allergy, etc. Not
something to worry about. The vet gave her some more
preventative medicine (something for preventing upper
respiratory infections, rabies update, etc) and drew
blood to send out for an IFA test. We are supposed to
get the results of the IFA test in 7-10d. Thanks for
all the help. I will keep you updated. Hopefully I
can get something arranged quickly. I just recently
talked to my management for my new job and told them I
can't leave on the 1st as originally planned. It
isn't a good situation but I bought time till the 6th
or 7th for departure. I hope it works and and think I
should adopt a dog to keep her company when I get
back.
