Subject: [Felvtalk] Nitnoy and felv
My Nitnoy crossed over today at 12:45. She had been with me since 2008,
survived a raccoon biting of her tail and being FELV +. There was nothing to
idicate whaat was going on. During the holidays, she was not doing well so
took her to ER. They did x-rays and complete bloodwork. I had told them she
was FELV+ but they did not seem upset that she was just 1 point low on red and
white cells. After the holiday, I took her to my vet as she was not improving,
had not passed urine or stool. First thing he did was look at her anal glands.
They were impacted and infected. He cleaned them out and gave her Covina and
we brought home Orbax to be given once daily. Everything was much better, she
was back to her self. Then Friday, she began hiding, not eating or drinking so
took her to vet on Saturday. ONE THING SHE DID THAT STRUCK ME ODD - SHE TRIED
TO EAT THE FIRBARK THAT MY ORCHIDS ARE PLANTED IN. Sat when we got to vet, my
dr was not there, but his wife (also a vet) was. She said her lymph glands
were slightly enlarged and gums very pale. We did another blood panel. Her
white cells were .98 and her red blood cells were 3.2. Kidney and liver
functions were normal as were creatine and bun. We thought about going to ER
for transfusion, but she would have to stay over the weekend in a cage and we
decided the stress would outweigh any good it might do plus her body might just
kill the new blood and we would be right back where we started plus stress.
Again, gave Covina shot and started again on Orbax. I wanted to try a tonic
that has worked wonders on cancers, etc. Vet said ok but keep a record of what
I did in case it worked. She actually seemed to improve. I was feeding with
an eye dropper aruond 50 ml every hour (i can ad mixed with 3 cans hot water so
she could swallow and also to egt fluids into her. She got around 50ml of
tonic also. She took a turn for the worse this am at 3:30, but then seemed to
get better. She was breathing easier, heart was strong and she responded to my
voice and touch. By 12:45, she had gone completely the opposite direction. I
was holding her aganst me as she seemed to like the body warmth when she gasped
3 or 4 times and the light in her eyes went out. I knew she was going and I
told her it was all right. She held on with her claws, gave a sigh and that
was all.
