Immediate treament for any illness should be a given. I am not a hypochondriac but most people aroun here think so because I take my cats to the vet period. Just let them go and they will get over it is their answer. I believe tht I should not let them suffer any more than necessary plus it is cheaper to treat an illness at the start than wait for it to get bad. I would not neglect myself or a child so why would I neglect my cats that I say I love. ---- katskat1 <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks! > > On 9/8/11, Natalie <[email protected]> wrote: > > Do NOT vaccinate against FIV - no reason.
