Re: Pekoe Update - Not Very Good News
Marlene, If it is possible it is lymphoma in the bone marrow, I would suggest doing the bone marrow biopsy. I did it with Simon-- they knocked him out for a few minutes and it was never painful-- he had a very tiny scab from it and that was it. It showed lymphoma and then he was able to get chemo, which helped for a few months, and sometimes it can help for longer if you catch it early enough. Other than that, I would do all the stuff that Kerry did with Bandy, whose anemia has improved-- he is one of the only ones to have it improve for more than a short while. I am not sure it was the same problem, but I would start with looking at the emails with his regimen on it and discussing it with your vet. VO is a good thing to try, but I have not that much hope in it, having tried it for other things. Immuno-regulin has been said to help some positives with anemia-- there are articles on this group's website about it. Michelle
Re: Another disaster - update
Hideyo, I hate to even suggest this but your comment about the neighbor not wanting people with certain ethnicities in his neighborhood made me wonder-- do you think that any of his animosity, or the animosity of the other guy, could be racism against you because you are Japanese? New Mexico is kind of known for being racially divided, and when I lived there for 3 months I could not believe how much blatant racism there was. What I saw was mostly racism against Native Americans and Latinos, but I would not be surprised if some of the white people there are racist against anyone who is from another country and/or is not white. If you think this might be part of what is going on, I think you need to tell your lawyers about it because it is relevant to the complaints, and it might also be something you want to mention to the ALCU if they are still considering doing an amicus brief.

I thought about it, but I dont think so, but I am not 100% sure --- he lives with girlfriend, and she is not US citizen, I think she is somewhere form south America, - it does not mean that she doesnt have anything against Japanese but its hard to say.. it looks like he is trying sell the house soon, so I hope he does --- Also, Greg just found out that someone shot his car window with a gun (I think) last night or something.. I think this is about 2nd or 3rd time his car got some type of damages what a timing.. I hope he does not think we had anything to do it..

OT:Dental for my babies - need prayers
Hi, I have a couple of drooling kitties that I have been told that they need a dental work (I already have got done for Hannibal and RubyE) a few weeks ago So, today, I took Savanna, and her sister Daisy, and their cousin, Sachi to the vet to see who needs it worst as I scheduled an appointment for one Anyway, they offered to one dental today and keep another tomorrow so I can take care of two --- so, Savannah being very skittish, I asked my vet to do Savannah today so that she wont have to come back.. they pulled a total of 8 teeth including one k-9 tooth but she did very well! Tomorrow, I have to take Daisy back for her surgery since her gum is very very red.. and I am going to wait on Sachi, a little bit please pray that Daisys surgery will go well and she will recover form the surgery with no problem I would appreciate your prayers and sending her a healing energy thank you very much in advance -
Re: OT:Dental for my babies - need prayers
prayers, of course. Having just been through this with Patches, and with Ginger last spring, I know it is nerve-wracking. I hope it all comes out ok! Michelle
Re: Heart Murmur
I wish I had some advice for you. I'm sure others have given you some by now though. I don't know. I would want him neutered. It shouldn't take much sedation at all for a neuter. It's not 'major' surgery like a spay. As far as the heart murmur your vet should be able to tell you how 'bad' it is. I had a male older cat that needed a dental and my vet suggested he see a specialist for an ultrasound before surgery. I took him for the ultrasound and I think it was only around a hundred dollars. (I think. It's been a while.) It was totally non invasive and non stressful for him as well. (And this is a cat who won't even take a pill!) The vet said the murmur was nothing serious enough to worry about and he's had 2 dentals since. He is NOT felv positive, but he does have high blood pressure which is not treated because he won't take his medicine. He's also a senior.Hope this helps some. tveggiepugs [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Well I took Wowie (Brooklyn) to the vet today for his eye infection, which I am now treating, and the dr said to me "He's not neutered!!" I said well, last I was here, I was told he was at more risk under anesthesia being FeLV+ so I am hesitant. Asked me if he was an indoor cat I said yes, he said his urine must stink. Actually, I said, he is very good with the litterbox and I keep it clean so, no. Like as if that's more important than his risks under anesthesia. THEN he tells me, "He has a heart murmur". So i say out loud "Even MORE of a reason for me not to put him under!!!" Am I wrong not to neuter him? He's strictly indoor. Am I putting him at risk for more illness? Or am I playing it safe? So, now he has a heart murmur and I'm wondering why they didn't catch this OR the fact that they told me today that he has gingivitis, at his last visit a month and a half ago. They looked in his mouth and listened to his heart so what the heck? Dr says I need to have him get an echocardiogram. Said the murmur and the eye infection AND the gingivitis could be secondary to felv. I'm worried. But wowie is still happy and doing well, any words of advice/guidance? I have to start brushing his teeth too.ThanksRebecca
Re: Another disaster
Hideyo, Merry just called me to update me on your case, and she seems very positive about the moratorium on the 10% rule getting passed soon and you getting a permit and the city dropping the criminal charge and civil case. We all need to keep our fingers crossed, of course, because it's not over til it's over and things always seem to happen. But Merry really does feel pretty certain that at some point this will all go away, at least for you. There will still be the need to lobby agains the limit law of course, but let's hope she's right about your case! Michelle

Re: Bandy has an eye infection
I'm glad to hear Bandy is feeling better. Prayers that his eye clears up as well. I take it his temp has stayed down? How do you get him to consume 500 to 1000mg of lysine a day? Mine aren't nearly so good at eating sup laced food! Nina Kerry Roach wrote: Thanks Michelle for the info...but what do I look for in the other eye? He had no signs of anything the day before so this came on rather sudden...That day I found his eye runny and all cloudy...Now, it isn't running anymore and hasn't really since I started the meds, but in the bottom of it inside the eye ball itself is a hazy spot...She didn't call it uveitis either, but I didn't know to ask that at the time either...she has an eye chart in the exam room and his eye didn't look like any of them...there were more than 20 different kitty eye disorders on that chart...Also, the first day his eye wouldn't dilate either and now it does and just has that spot (which looks like it is inside the eye ball). It is sorta brownish/grey...He is playing and eating good again...only that one day was he out of it, but his temp was up, too..Wonder if I should give him about 10 days of pred, too? 5mg for 5 days then 2.5 mg for another 5 days..as I did read about this after you mentioned it to me...and it did say in some places that oral steroids were needed on occasion...just wondering if you did this, too.. I know it is another mystery in Bandy's situation... I am giving him 500 to 1000mg of lysine a day now, too...should have done that all along, but just didn't know it..Since the other kitties eat with him, I figured it would be good for them as well...they are all on the same supplements since they do eat together...Little Rascal needs his heart supps. so most of the same can be used for both him and Bandy.. Let me know what you think. Thanks again, kerry and bandy Brings words and photos together (easily) with PhotoMail - it's free and works with Yahoo! Mail.
Bailey Update
Bailey is not doing very good, he is getting 200ccs of food a day but is still wasting away. He is still getting epo 3X a week, and 20mg of prednisolone split into 10mgs twice a day. His diarrhea is for the most part gone, although he did just tonight have a mixture of a solid and runny bowel movement. He is sooo bony and his muscle is all but gone on him, he is wasting away and I am starting to think there is cancer somewhere that we haven't found. He has that cancer look (wasting away). He potties wherever he wants and still just lays around. I'm really worried about him, he seems so depressed. We are suppose to do bloodwork in a week but I don't know that I want to wait that long. Our last option is to add leukeran to the prednisolone he is getting. He will be laying somewhere and when he gets up there is usually a little poop there, so it is still coming out of him involuntarily, he doesn't seem to have any control over it sometimes. Anyone know what may be causing this??? Prayers are really needed, my baby is slipping away from me and I don't know what to do ... -- Belinda Happiness is being owned by cats ...
