two months ago we lost our sweet Cole to liver failure, anemia, blood clotting tests was off the charts it was so thin, who knows what else (possible infection from fleas), and feline leukemia. He died in my arms. Don't know which is worse, having to make the decision to help them cross over or having them gasp for their last breath in your arms. It all started with Cole not wanting to eat. Now his brother Ash stopped eating yesterday and I am scared to death. If anyone has some advice, it would be greatly appreciated. Today we took Ash to the vet because he had not eaten for 24 hours and threw up first white mucus and then pinkish mucus later. the vet said he had a very high fever. Here is the results of the bloodwork for two months ago when we had him and his two brothers tested and current bloodwork. Ashs blood work is much better than Coles was, so I hope more can be done for Ash and pray we do not loose him two.

Also tested positive back before year old. and tested negatived two times while one year old. all of this have been the in officce feline leukemia test. He is now a little ove 4 years old. Ashs brother (Cole) tested the same before death two months ago with a positive, then two negatives, and recently positive. Ashs other brother tested positive one time and has been negative ever since. the 3 brothers were housed together and the surviving two brothers Ash and BJ are still housed together, The vet gave him an injection that they said would help his upset stomach and high temp but I just noticed they let that off of the statement so I do not know what it was. and they gave me Orbax 20 ml to give for the next 10 days once a day. Ash is back to normal self---eating and active again and has had one dose of Orbax plus injection of some sort in the vet office No fluids or anything else has been given to Ash. I have another appointment tomorrow for Ash with the vet for checkup and to make sure fever is gone. Any suggestions would be so so appreciated, Karen Harshbarger and Ash
