Here's a short update about what's been going on at our house:
Last Thursday Grace had been feeling badly, I've already posted about her quick recovery the next day. On Friday Jazz (my other +) started acting lethargic. Jazz did not bounce back the following day the way Grace did. I can only wonder if it has to do with the different protocols I used on Grace and Jazz. Grace was given a larger initial dose when we began because she was so sickly and Jazz's only symptoms had been slight gingivitis. By Sunday, Jazz hadn't eaten anything for two days, and hadn't left her bed except to go to the litter box. Okay, here comes the panic. Neither one had a temp, or was congested. Jazz seemed like she might be a little nauseous, and achy. I only had three days worth of VO left from the previous phase of feline interferon dosing (the protocol says 5 days of dosing). I've been waiting for my next shipment. It was suppose to be here around the 13th. It's still not here. On Saturday I decided to start them on the SQ shots and hope that the last two days of dosage would get here in time. I figured at this point some was better than none. Apparently I was right. Jazz still feels crummy, but has begun to eat and today she's moving around again, (although still sleeping allot). The VO does seem to be an excellent way to boost their immune systems. If the new shipment doesn't get here by tomorrow, (I have one more dose left for today), I pray that it will have been enough. I'll keep you guys informed.
It would be wonderful if this stuff worked on an "as needed" basis. It lasts 24 months in the fridge, and if we could just give them a dose or two and have them respond, it would be a lot more cost efficient.
Say a prayer for my girls, Nina
