This is such great news about Autumn and hopefully good news for all
of our kitties. Please keep us updated on her
progress. I want to be able to keep these reports for my vet (about
to be former vet) who has been so adamant
about the lack of testing and science and so hostile to the Imulan
company.

I am so glad to hear that she is holding her own! I have asked my
vet if she would consider trying the Imulan and she agreed. She has
set up her account with them last week and hopefully will be able
to place an order in the next week. Since rescuing 5 feral kittens
last year (Oct 08) plus a bonus FeLV that was tossed into the feral
colony, we have lost the 4 brothers in the past 5 months, only one
barely made it to a year old. We still have the tabby sister, Rosie
and the bonus kitty-Murphy. We had attempted a transfusion with the
second one, with not so good results-he was euthanized after having
a reaction during the procedure. We quit counting after 6 grand.
This has been a long, heartbreaking journey. With only the 2 cats
left and they are just a tad over a year old, we can't give up.
Reading about Autumn has given us hope that there is something out
there that will help. We already are giving the Interferon Alpha 2x
a day. Rosie and Murphy appear
healthy, bright and shiny, playful-but so did her brothers until
they just crashed fast. Maybe in Rosie's case it may be the female
gene-her mother is still alive and feral, we TNR'd he last year and
she has always appeared healthy-in fact since her spay, has become
filled out and relaxed-we can even pet her on occaison. I have so
much hope that the Imulan will help us-we are going to follow the
once a week for a month on the injections and see where how it goes.
