Ya-hoo! You have your hands full! Plenty of folks on here have great
experience and can help guide you.
I'm just good for moral support.
Thanks for taking care of these little tigers...a job rewarded by their
health and happiness.
Carry on!

I am not sure how this board works, but this is my story. Can I answer on
the board or do I have to send a e-mail each time.
Over last summer, there was an abandoned foreclosure house next door to
me. Well, in the hole of the fence, these 2 little faces kept popping
their heads threw the hole. Turns out they were kittens born in March 2010
from a feral mother cat. I feed them over the summer and finally made
friends with the kittens. I bought a small dog house they could eat
without getting soaked in the rain, snow etc. I finally TRN them in Sept.
One is a healthy Gray Tiger one which I call "Hello". The other is a small
black and white which I call "Hello Kitty". they were both males. The
black and white seemed to eat alot less, very skiddish, not as friendly.
The tiger one is a big mouth meow, meow, hey here I am. They are so
bonded, so close. The tiger one seems to mother the Hello Kitty on all
terms, watching out for him, washing him.
Well, over this bad snow, cold winter the black and white came down sick,
I grabbed him FAST and set up a cage in the house. Took him to the vet, he
was on antibodics. Turns out he is Positive with FeLV. Since I never took
care of ferals in my life, this is all new to me and a bit overwhelming.
So we now have the black and white kitten (11 months old now) in the house
since Feb 14th and on:
Prednisolone (1 pill a day)
Chinese Herbs Immune enhancer (2 caps a day)
EFA vitamin and mineral supplement (1/4 teaspoon mixed with food)
Fellovite II (1/4 teaspoon or lick right from finger, which he does)
I also have the tiger one in the house and he was vaccinated from the
FeLV. so hopefully it works, cause I can not separate them at all.
I am also feeding other ferals outside. (The cats must look for
house........LOL)
Steroid: Big male black and white, he looks like his ear is tipped
Bobcat: pure black one shows up in the dark, in and out. Has a bunny
rabbit tail
V: gray male tiger, who's been missing since Long Island snow storm this
Feb
Red: Male just showed up the past 2 weeks, Friendly, but not neurterd
The Mama CAT: caught her in Oct and TNR. She is doing well, and healthy
and lives and eats by a women down the block.
Any suggestion would be so helpful!!
thank you
