Re: outdoor arrangments (was:Tip is Gone)
Well, I love my screened porch and so do my kitties and dogs. One thing I would worry about in an outdoor enclosure that allows access to the lawn is the possibility of them eating some toxic plants. My orange girl Rosalie did just that last summer and fortunately got better. Actually I had her on a kitty leash and was spacing out, thinking of something else, while she got into the flower bed and started chomping on some plants. THEN - soon afterward she began to vomit and couldn't stop for hours. I took her to the vet who finally suggested exploratory surgery. I agreed and nothing was found. Rosalie got better on her own and the vet thinks the plants were the cause. I am not sure which ones she sampled. So I had a big scare and there went my entire income tax refund for last year.

Re: Loki Advice: fleas, throwing up
Steve, I've been away from the computer for a while, so this may no longer be timely. When I found my FeLV bottle babies (didn't know it at the time), they were just over 2 weeks old. They were so infested with fleas that they were bloody from them. At that very tender age I used just a tiny amount of Advantage on them. I put some Advantage on a Q-Tip and touched the back of their necks with it. That was all that was needed to get rid of the fleas and the kittens showed no ill effects. I know it's scary putting toxic stuff on our babies, but sometimes the alternative is worse. I have since switched to Revolution for controlling fleas because it's alcohol based (instead of oil) and doesn't seem to upset my animals as much as the Advantage. Revolution also claims to control ear mites and get rid of roundworms. I never use a full tube, even on the adults. I find I can stretch a tube between 3 or 4 cats and it seems just as effective with out having to douse them in poison. Here's the link to Pet Shed were I order my Revolution, I also get Drontal (worm med) from them w/o a prescription. http://www.petshed.com/ Nina Steve Williams wrote: Cherie, I'm kind of afraid to use Advantage or Frontline with a kitten who has hadFeLV+ from birth.

Does anyone have advice on best course of action for a 9 month old FeLV+ kitty? I will also go to the vet for any prescribed treatment, but don't want to cause him a speck of stress withtreatment. My vet is very good in this regard since he is opposed to poisonous stuff. For the past three days Loki has been throwing up in the early evenings. He is eating normally otherwise and this doesn't seem to faze him too much. Our feeding regiment for him has not changed. His supplements are L-Lysine and Vitamin C, which he has been give for many months. His throwing up seems to occur sometime after he has his wet food with supplements in the early afternoon (4pm-ish). Any advice or comments? Even though he is fine otherwise,this is causing mevery much anxiety. Thanks for any advice.

Re: Off topic - rescuing feral
Dear Hideyo: You really have yourself a can of worms there, don't you? I have a friend here in San Jose who is faced with a similar problem of feral cats proliferating around the company she works for...fortunately a pack of marauding dogs is not also part of the problem. Because of your fear of losing your job, which is very real, you have to be very careful. If you know of anyone in your area with an animal welfare group who could speak to the management on behalf of the cats so you don't have to be directly involved, it might help. They need to be enlightened about feral cats and how to deal with them humanely. I will redouble my efforts to get a copy of the info from the SF Humane Society...they may even have a web site. They have info to support the fact that just trapping and removing the existing cats is not going to solve the problem in the long run...as soon as those cats are removed, others will move into the territory and the best solution is for an aggressive TNR program to spay/neuter the cats so they won't continue to reproduce and the population will then stabilize and gradually reduce though attrition. Cats will control any rodent populations in the area as well. Perhaps if they will listen and learn and understand there is a reasonable solution, they will be less antagonistic. One can only hope. But, if the company won't listen to such an approach, then perhaps this person can at least get permission to com in to trap and remove the cats, humanely. Is there some other, safer, area these cats could be released after they are S/N?? The dogs are far more of a problem than the cats. And this needs to be pointed out to the company's management, as well. Marauding dogs are much more of a danger to humans (to say nothing of the poor cats) and unless there is a dog rescue group willing to get involved, you will probably have to contact Animal Control. It will be hard for you to realistically trap the cats with dogs running around loose to complicate things. I do hope you can enlist the support and assistance of others in your area to address the situation. See if you can find the e-addresses for other rescue groups (sometimes Animal Control will have a referral list) in your area and contact them and perhaps you will find others there with sympathetic hearts and a sense of responsibility who will help, so you don't have to jeopardize your livlihood to help these unfortunate cats. By any chance are there any celebrities or people in the news media in your area who are animal lovers and might lend their clout to your cause?? In S. Calif. there is an animal welfare group called Actors and Others for Animals...I don't know if they might be able to help you in any way or not.

Bless you for caring so much, Hideyo. I wish I were close enough to be of some real help. Feral cats may never have the benefit of a loving home and human copanionship and protection, but their lives deserve consideration and they should not be treated like unwanted trash.

RE: Off topic - rescuing feral
Thank you, Sally. Well, it's probably sort of my fault - if I did everything carefully, this wouldn't be an issue - They did not want me to feed cats anymore because they were peeing on the furniture that we NO LONGER NEEDED and therefore BEING Abandoned in the trailers in the parking lot. When I asked the management if I could trap them and remove them, they did not want me to go near them for potential of me or anyone getting any disease (???) from dead cats, as some of the feral were trapped in trailers for a long time, and they died there, which still upset me to think about (Ginger's mom was trapped there recently for three days - and I did not know about it but she got out ok)- My friend Kathy, offered to talk to the management before, I just did not want to create any additional attentions around cats here because it could go either way, if you know what I mean. If I can quietly trap the mama, it will be good, though there are two more out there possible. I had had trapped a total of 8 cats from here and never released them back. Wish me luck with my situation, Sally. I just hope that all the kitties left here are ok.

Hideyo, Of course I'm praying for Oreo! I know how anxious you must be. How old is he/she? It's so hard when you have so many. I was just musing this morning about how much easier it would be to care for everyone, if they were all healthy. You better not lose that job of yours! I'm praying for the ferals by your work as well. I would look for help in rounding up those dogs. It's a very dangerous situation and no way for them to live. Life is so hard sometimes. Don't worry about sending me the medication for Gypsy, you have enough on your plate right now. If you would please email me the exact name and treatment amount/protocol, I'll sit on my vet until she helps me get some in my hot little hand. Thank you for asking about Gypsy. Her IBD symptoms have not improved. It's very frustrating. I have a call into my vet to see if she has anything else up her sleeve. Nina Hideyo Yamamoto wrote: Nina, sorry, I have not shipped Surphur to you yet, I have it in my hand and have not forgotten!!. How is Gypsy? My little Shitsu dog, Oreo had a disc injury and started losing control of hind legs, I was very worried because my other dog, JoJo had a similar injury and he became paralyzed within 72 hours. Though thanks to the surgeon, he can walk again now. Anyway, we had to watch him very careful for the past week, and I noticed that the condition was getting worse, so I took him to the emergency clinic this week, and the same surgeon who operated on JoJo is operating on Oreo as we speak Please pray that the surgery and his recovery will go well for Oreo, Nina! I hope you will enjoy the book. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Nina Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2005 1:45 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Feral cat book Thanks Hideyo, I just ordered the book from Amazon.

Everytime he saw us he'd hissso of course we named him Hisspuff. After about a year we could pet him while he ate, but he'd still hiss when he first saw us. We tried to get him to come into the house...but he never would, just prefered the straw we put out for him in the bushes out front. He got sick, nose stuffed up and eyes running - but wouldn't ever let us catch him. He showed up at the back of the house one day...just to say goodbye...again we tried to catch him, but he wouldn't have it and went off to die...but he'll ALWAYS be one of my favorites!

Re: Feral cat book
Title: Message i have only 7 cats (down from 9 )and 1 dog (down from 2). and people regard me the same way--especially my family members. screw 'em. I thank god I'm hardwired to respect animal life and enjoy their companionship. You are an angel to risk your job for these ferals. did you try contact Alley Cat allies-even if just to ask for help on how to deal with your company's higher ups? (and how the heck do they claim the cats are a danger? idiots!) have you asked around any stables if they need barn cats? (a local woman rescues ferals out of our pound -and rehomes them that way). if only i could win the megamillions lottery. barbara
