I've known people to keep a wild kitty in the bathroom with a litter box & food & water. Mostly the kitty just hides. Usually under the toilet (of all places). It seems a bit warmer and nicer than the car. Plus she can hear the sounds of life, which may be frightening but are probably also re-assuring. I've learned many times that cats turn out to be more resilient than I've first thought they were. Bless you for helping her. I'll hold a good thought for you both, that this works out to the benefit of all involved. Peace, Bonnie

My thoughts and prayers are with you as I just recently lost a 9 mos old kitten to FeLV that I adopted 6 mos prior. She still has a chance, until then, let's just all pray and hope for the best! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Pam Norman" <pam_nor...@charter.net> To: <felvtalk@felineleukemia.org> Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2011 9:28 PM Subject: [Felvtalk] Poppy > Poppy is a little wild 6 month old kitten just tested & found FeLeuk > positive.
