Dear List,
I haven't read too many of your list posts, but I ran onto one while googling
for sanctuary options and wondered if somone on the list could provide me with
more information about Snowball's placement in the Second Chance Meow in Reno.
I have a 5-6 month old kitten who has been in my care (quarantined) since
January 2. She was a mess when she arrived - very scared, skinny, &
dehydrated, bad case of mange, diarrhea, etc... She has tested positive with 2
different FeLV tests (Snap and a "confirming" test that the vet sent out for
analysis).
I foster bottle babies for a local (So. Calif.) rescue and this is my first
FeLV + kitten in 6 years (and over 150 kittens) of fostering neonatals. I have
spent many hours googling and reading about FeLV in cats, but have been unable
to locate a sanctuary that will consider taking my little Wisp tabby girl. She
has some special needs in that she has to have wet food mixed with water and
Benefiber powder instead of free feeding kibble or she gets horribly plugged up
bowels.
I happened onto the post where one of your members (Laurie) found a sanctuary
for Snowball at Second Chance Meow in Reno. Can Laurie or someone give me more
information about it and possibly contact information/link to their website?
Kitten season is beginning here and I can't safely quarantine Wisp for much
longer. She is getting too big and active. I dread the thought of euth. but I
can't risk the health of our 3 cats (former fosters) and I just got my first
litter of 2010 - 5 10-day olds found in an attic. Little Wisp wants so badly
to come out and play with the other cats - I need to find her a place where she
can get the care she needs and hopefully have a few FeLV friends to play with.
She is sweet and lively and pretty darn feisty now that she is feeling so good.
Thank you in advance for any advice and/or information you can provide.
Georgetta
