I live in NY so am not much help. BUT I found my current vet by contacting nearby rescues that take FELV cats and asking them which vet they used. They were more than happy to help & I found someone who is 15 minutes away..

It might catch someone's attention who might otherwise not read the post since a lot of people scan posts. I'm in Texas so don't know of any, but I hope you are able to find a good vet! :) Wendy "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world - indeed it is the only thing that ever has!" ~~~ Margaret Meade ~~~ ----- Original Message ---- From: Dawn Morrison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2007 9:56:26 AM Subject: Vet Recommendation I was wondering if anyone lived in the Far Northern Chicago area or Southern Wisconsin area (I live on the border of IL & WI) that knows of a vet that is familiar and treats FeLV.

It's from Kerry, who I consider a trusted member of this group, and has been here on and off for at least two years: Belinda--I'm sorry to hear about yr friend's bad experience. Awful, but it doesn't surprise me any more. I've used Drs Dodin and Dr Rovner for years and trust and like them both. They were at Higgins till recently and have both left (owner is a jerk-- tell your friend to avoid Dr Humphrey Roberts, the owner of Higgins). Also tell her to avoid McKillips Animal Hospital, and the Mayfair clinic.) But tell me where your friend lives and when I get back (22nd) I'll see if I can help further with nearer clinics. Kerry Dr Dodin can be contacted at Abell Animal Hospital, 773 631 6727. Scott Rovner, owner of Roscoe Village Animal Hospital, 3131 N Clybourn (almost next door to Emergency Clinic) tel 773 549 3131. Problem: his clinic is very new, and still a work-in-progress, and he may not be available every day. Another housecall vet I've not used but that comes very highly recommended by a close friend who had to have her dog PTS. Dr Alisse Mawrence, 773 575 7387. She does evenings and weekends too. But she can take some time to respond -- she also works at Chicago Emergency Services. Doctor Teuber at Higgins, 1705 W. Belmont (Paulina & Belmont), tel: 773 525 0472. I've only seen her once (yesterday) but i liked her. She was easy to talk to and responsive to ideas. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Belinda Sauro" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2005 7:33 AM Subject: Re: July 5 update on Flavia > Kerry when you get back from your trip, I would really like to know > what vets you have seen, I just had a friend move to Chicago and she has > had some horro experiences finding a vet she can trust. > > -- > Belinda > Happiness is being owned by cats ... Hi all You may remember I sent out an email last week about a bad vet clinic in Chicago, McKillips. I sent the same email to a PAWS counsellor in Chicago, and she left me a message saying she'd never had a"good feeling" about that clinic, and went on to say that people who had adopted a PAWS cat in the past recently took the cat to McKillips. The problem was "blockage"--and McKillips recommended, and then carried out, removal of the cat's penis. Has anyone heard of such a "remedy" for "blockage"? It seems extraordinary, to put it mildly. I'd welcome any/all feedback. Thanks, Kerry __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
