Can anyone explain to me why if from point of exposure to actually testing pos
is 28 days, if this is correct, why we can't just retest in one month using
Elisa? And if all excepting the one testing weak pos, stjill test neg, is this
good enough? All 8 kittens and some of their moms tested neg, just the one a
weak pos. I am asking because I am trying to make this make sense to me and
keep everyone safe. And foster homes understanding.
Thanks,
Janine

Thanks, Lee, I was about to say that I have never seen anyone not get responded
to on this list in their time of need and emotional turmoil. Going offtopic is
almost inevitable when you’re on a specialized list like this. I think the OT
discussion has been amazingly civil and respectful. As it happens, I will be
voting Democrat because I feel they are in touch with, and care about, the
people that the Republicans have referred to as the 47% they’re not interested
in reaching. My reasons have to do with the way the most vulnerable among us
would be treated under each party. I feel people like most of us, who are sort
of getting by or not quite getting by or getting by only because we get a
pension or disability or whatever, need people in government who are interested
in reaching us.

In the middle of our chit-chat about politics and hunters and vegetarian diets,
if someone had come in with the subject line: Cat Bitten by Cobra, we would
have
been off the chatty stuff in an instant and onto Google to look up what could
be
done for the cat while the caregiver was taking him to the vet emergency
clinic. So if we wander around the hospital isles occasionally when everyone
is
asleep and babble a bit, don't worry. We can switch in a moment. I actually
did switch when I saw how agonized you were and posted about vets treating FeLv
cats differently from non-FeLv cats to get us back on topic. But occasionally
on
every specialized list I have been on there is a subject with OT listed and
then
it's either a funny article copied from a magazine or other online source or
some cute pictures of cats doing silly things, or even a heated political
discussion about who will be President and how it would effect our ability to
financially keep our heads above water and still feed our rescues and take our
cats to the vet when needed. It really does tie into the FeLv+ cat group
because we are very money intensive in trying to keep our rescued special needs
cats as healthy as can be for as long as can be. If I lose my Social Security
and Medicare benefits or they are reduced, I would have to cut down on food for
myself and air conditioning in the summer and heat in the winter to pay my
mortgage on this house that I bought to keep my cats safe from being seized by
Animal Control in a city where there are cat limits. Even though I still work
and have an online job, I would be in dire straits. So it is very important to
my cats who I vote for. And since I live in a rural area, hunting becomes a
problem for me also. If the NRA controls the government, then my 3 outside
cats
and my peacock are in danger. I actually hear gunshots sometimes in the
daytime
on weekends and it makes me tremble.
Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors
too!
