Hi Beth, Nice to meet you! I wish I could recommend a good vet to you, but unfortunately I haven't found one I'd swear by. I have heard great things about the Animal Cancer Center off Greenville Avenue in Dallas, but I'm not sure if they do just routine exams. I have not personally been there though. I bet they could recommend a great internal med vet if you needed one, if they don't already have one on staff.
I went to UNT and lived in Denton for the 5 years I was there. Are you there permanently? I'm so sorry to hear about your sweet furbabies. There is a chance that your Manx can throw the virus so don't give up! A great diet and a stress free environment are the two best things you can do for your FeLV+ furbaby. :) 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: Beth Gouldin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2008 10:31:08 PM Subject: Re: CLS Hi Wendy I just saw on your last post that you are in Dallas - I'm in Denton. I just joined this group about a month ago after the loss of one of our babies to FeLV and now we are dealing with it in our almost 7 month old female manx. It's nice to know someone is near by - is there a particular vet that you would recommend in the area (or possibly/hopefully closer to Denton) ? The vet we used has not been extremely helpful or informative, simply because I don't think that they have seen many cases that have positive outcomes (their first advice for a symptomatic cat was to PTS) So far, she is asymptomatic - save for the occasional runny nose/eyes which I'm thinking is allergy related because it generally gets worse the same time MY allergies flare up. Anyway - best wishes Beth ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile.
