Denise, here is the information I was given. I will respond again with the oncology vet name when I have it... Laurie
>>This is a tough question. I think it really depends on how much she wants to do for the cat (and also, put the cat through). I went to CSU for Rudy's knee surgery and they were great. But when I brought Joe there, I felt like their approach was much too invasive. I know that CSU has a great reputation for cancer treatment, so she might at least want to check them out. But she should be very specific about what she does/does not want them to do to her cat or they will do whatever they want. I have a friend who is a vet at CSU and I'll ask her for a vet referral for someone in the oncology department there. I really love my vet here in Boulder. Her name is Liv Brockman and she works at Alpine Hospital for Animals; she's extremely knowledgeable as well as compassionate. She ended up treating Joe during the course of his illness and she was really the best vet I've ever worked with. Your friend might also want to check with the owner of PC's Pantry in Boulder. She (Mary Lee) has taken several of her animals to CSU for cancer treatment and she probably has some good suggestions. Hope this helps. (And I'll let you know when my friend gets back to me with a referral at CSU.) -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Denise Grimm Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2010 5:25 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Felvtalk] Boulder/Denver Does anyone know of any vets in the Boulder/Denver area or CSU that specialize in FeLV? My girl has non regenerative anemia and is on prednisone and erythropoetin. Not sure if there are other options. Not sure if a bone marrow aspirate is work the stress to her, etc. Thanks!
