I guess reading Jenifer's post was the last straw for me. I know some people would wonder why we are such masochists. I mean, who in their right mind takes on an FeLV cat knowing all the risks? I went in and played with Ki..He is a yr. old now (I think) and he is as healthy as any of me cats. He is huge, 10 lbs and the biggest tail I have seen in awhile!
We are moving in 3 wks, and we have made the commitment to take him with us. Everyone has had all their shots, and i will release him in the house when we get there. I know this move will be very traumatic for him. He has been in a 12x12 bedroom since last July. I spend a lot of time with him watching TV and playing with him. He is frightened of anyone else...well he is starting to give DH the benefit of the doubt. He is so playful and full of life that i couldn't bear to lose him and I hope this trip doesn't make him sick. I hope I am doing the right thing taking him, but his options are limited. Just needed to vent; I am a basket case anyway now. I have one cat that is diabetic, one with asthma, one with CRF and my 3 FIV boys, one with an HCT of 20 (don't know what's wrong, but he isn't getting any worse, and is eating well) All the sickies will ride with me. Geez, I will be glad when this is all over. Love makes you do interesting things.
