They are both beautiful.

I see you haven't removed the invisible sign welcoming wayward ones from
your front lawn :-) . I Googled your question about worming pregnant
cats and got conflicting answers. If it where me, esp given her age and
circumstance, I'd have her spayed and the kittens aborted. It may sound
harsh,
How long has it been since Cassidy was neutered???

Vaccines weaken the body and, in her condition, even just a little could be too

I'm using steroids right now, 2 tablets of prednisone per day. This is back to
the dosage he was at for a week after his transfusion. This is basically the
last thing the vet said we could try, she didn't say anything about

I think he needs the immune suppression as well,

Scratching is a sign of fleas.
