you are prescribing medicine without a license. Wow. It just doesn't end, does it? For the record, twelvehousecats, Susan has left the list, so that's one less jab she'll have to deal with, due in large part I'm sure to statements like that. This will likely be my last post to this group. I find the attitudes and behavior of the "senior" members of this list to be discouraging, at best. Toe amputation is cruelty to animals, period, and virtually every major animal-rights group (including Siamese Rescue, ASPCA and PETA) oppose it. I will, for those of you that requested "scientific" information, include one last post before I bow out of this group. See it at the bottom of the email, if you're really concerned/interested. You can sugar coat it, and ignore the facts if it makes you feel better about yourself, but the bottom line is its cruel, period. For anyone who's interested, I have started another group on Yahoo. The URL is here: _http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/FelineLeukemia_ (http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/FelineLeukemia) Let me preface that by saying I am not advocating or asking anyone to leave this list. I am not saying the new group is a replacement for this group, or that its any better than this group. I am simply providing an alternative list if anyone is interested in joining. I'm sure some of you might be interested in being on both lists. For me, this was just too much. It was uncalled for. Susan was one of the first people to respond to my email when I originally joined this group scared out of my mind and not knowing what to do, so yeah, I guess I took the attacks on her a bit personally, and perhaps I shouldn't have, but whats done is done, and I don't think it can be undone at this point. The ground rules for the new group is relatively simple, and that is no one's opinion will be stifled or silenced, and the group will be moderated. Also, no one will be judged on the other list for anything that was said or done here, so long as its not brought up there. As disgusted and disappointed as I am in everything that has transpired here, I do wish all the cats (and people) on this list the best.
