Junior initially was treated for hemobartella as a precaution with Baytril. The anemia did improve, but then came the fevers the eye infection etc....it was a rough go and without this group, I am not sure how long I would have put him through it. I was and to certain extent am clueless.
My vet at that time was saying the with the fevers most likely being from the FELV it might be time to pts. I took my puttycat home and got him back to the old vet and told him I wanted to do the IR. He, Dr Larrick is a good natured fellow who thank goodness had just hired a new(young vet). She has been very caring and did the IR protocol and we treated what came along. Junior is still with me 10 months later. Thanks to the support and knowlegde of this group. sally On 7/1/07, Marylyn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Not necessarily on topic........Mai Mai had AIHA and it improved with the addition of liver (yuck) to her food + alternative vet treatments. I have to wonder if anemic cats would benefit from liver pops???????? If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

It will be a year in guessing a bit, but I would say September which was when he was treated for the anemia. I had to give Junior his Metacam today. I could tell he was not feeling well. Flinching when I petted him as if he was in pain. Time to go back to the vet to see what our options are. I am wondering who has cats over a year from their dx of FeLV.
