Re: [Felvtalk] Here we go again!
Hi everyone, The list is running just fine. These kinds of bounces occur because of your email hosts. If it were an issue with the list, a lot more people would be experiencing the problem. This is not a Yahoo group or any other such forum. This mailing list program is caled Mailman, and it runs directly from the felineleukemia.org website. If Mailman receives too many bounces from an email account, it blocks it temporarily to avoid an overflow of continuing bounces back to it- which would otherwise clog up list resources. Again, either mailboxes are full or the email host misidentifies FeLVTalk messages as spam. You should contact your host and ask them make sure that our list mail is recognized as safe. I hope this information is helpful.

[Felvtalk] ADMIN Re: Mail bounces
Hi Lorri, I'm sorry you and others are having problems with the FeLVTalk list mail. This error is an automatic response that is sent out when too many emails from the list are rejected by your ISP (Internet Service Provider). Frontier.net is one of the more temperamental ISPs. Do you have any other email accounts you could use for list mail? Since these messages are automated, I have no control over them. Please let me know if you have another email address that you can use for this list, and I will help you set it up. Again, I apologize for the inconvenience.

Hi Amani, Kelley, and all, This list does not provide for posting pdf files or picture images (jpg, gif, png, etc). It is a text-based information resource with a limit of 20Kb of text per message. If your message to the group bounces, it is probably because you need to trim down the quoted materials from all of the previous messages that have been quoted in the thread.

Amani, I found the article on Winstrol online at: http://press.endocrine.org/doi/full/10.1210/jcem.86.11.798 3 Everyone should be able to copy and paste it into their browsers to read it.

Hey all, I must reiterate that this list is for discussing FeLV, treatments, and support for caregivers. It is NOT a politics, hunting, personal soapbox, etc. list. We have a well-defined mission here to discuss FeLV. All of these other topics need to be taken to forums where such topics are discussed. I would hate to have to suspend this list because some want to ignore or bring their own interpretations into my gentle reminder about OT posting here. But, if suspending this list for a short time is the only way to stop the continuation of the off-topic chatter, I will have to do so. It is rude to continue these conversations after being asked to stop. Thank you for your consideration and cooperation. Kind regards. James G.

[Felvtalk] OT: Pleural Effusion
Hi everyone, Three months ago, my cat, LG, was first treated for fluid buildup in his lungs. He went nine weeks before needing to have that fluid drained again. Now, it seems that we are having it done every four or five days. LG is on prednisolone and Salix (diuretic to help slow the fluid buildup). The vet is calling what he has pleural effusion. Has anyone else here had this problem? Do you and/or your vets have any other suggestions about possible treatments for it? Once LG gets the fluid drained, he eats like crazy and is pretty much his old self. He is twelve and a half years old now. Thanks for any and all suggestions on this. Best wishes to all! James G.

Re: [Felvtalk] OT: Fluid buildup in the chest
Thanks to everyone for the well wishes and suggestions on LG's chest fluid. Thankfully, he is not FeLV+. This fluid just seemed to come out of nowhere because he is so healthy otherwise. He is on prednisone and a diuretic (salix- 12.5mg). He is going to the litterbox about every three hours to pee now. He is eating, and I saw him drink some water just awhile ago. I was worried about how to pill LG because he is so stubborn about such things. The vet gave (sold!) me these treats called LeanTreats from NutriSentials. I was skeptical since LG is so finicky. I put the pills in the treat and squished it up and put it front of him. He sniffed it for a bit, licked it once and then acted like he was going to walk away. Then, he came right back and wolfed it down in one bite! I was shocked! :) So, he's getting his pills. I guess the main questions I have are these. How long before the fluid builds up again? He's on seven days straight of the pred and diuretic.. then it goes to every other day. I was given 20 pills each. He's breathing SO MUCH better today- no heavy breaths at all. Even after they drained the fluid yesterday, he was still breathing a bit heavy. But, that could have been the stress of it all too. I just want the best for him- a good quality of life for as long as he wants it... Thanks again for everyone's assistance. Best wishes to all. James G.

[Felvtalk] OT: Fluid buildup in the chest
Hey all, Sorry for the off-topic post. But, my male cat, LG, is sick. Took him to the vet this morning because he wasn't breathing right. He had 288cc's of fluid built up around his heart and lungs :( :( :( They drained the fluid, and his color came back almost immediately. He's on prednisone and a diuretic to help curb the fluid buildup... Unfortunately, there were lots of leukocytes in the fluid which means a great chance of lymphatic cancer :( :( :( The prednisone is giving him his appetite back at least. He hadn't eaten in two days now... And, he was already too thin. Does anyone here have any experience with all of this? LG is twelve years old and quite healthy otherwise.

[Felvtalk] Fwd: New to the list, would like some advice!
From:avia.rausc...@gmail.com Subject: New to the list, would like some advice! - Hello! I'll try to make the history brief but clear (not always easy for me), we adopted a kitten from ACC here in NYC in July 2007 to keep our cranky, one and a half year old, only cat Onyx company. The kitten (Cinder) was 9 weeks old and tested negative at adoption for FeLV. We added a third cat (Horus) from a rescue group that October (tested negative after adoption, the rescue group said he was negative, but there was no record of testing with his paperwork), and this past October added a tamed feral (Blackie) to the mix (kept separate from the other three until she was medically cleared and tested negative). On January 12, 2009 our darling little Cinder was diagnosed with lymphoma after an extremely sudden decline (fine on Friday, heavy breathing, not eating/drinking, hiding under the bed Sunday night) at one year and eight months of age. I took her to the vet first thing Monday morning, and after xrays and an ultrasound found her chest so full of fluid she couldn't breathe and a massive tumor in her liver, we made the decision to let her go rather than tormenting her with treatment to make ourselves feel better. The postmortem tests revealed that Cinder had FeLV. We were in shock and couldn't believe how quickly she got sick! Onyx is a three year old persian, Horus is a five year old mix (Siberian/Maine Coon?) and Blackie is a dsh. Onyx and Blackie have been the picture of health, Horus was diagnosed with asthma almost a year ago and is on Flovent twice a day. After waiting the recommended two months, I had the other three tested this past Thursday. Horus and Blackie are negative, but Onyx came up positive. Yesterday, I had Horus Blackie vaccinated, and the IFA test results for Onyx will be back in about a week. For now I have some questions that maybe some of you can answer: 1. My vet said no booster was necessary for the vaccinated cats, yet I see many references here to 30 day boosters - should I ask again or insist on the boosters? 2. The vet said to separate my kitties, but I can't stand the idea of locking Onyx up. From what I read, most of you seem to mix your positive and negative-vaccinated kitties, so am I being awful by not separating them? They say low stress environment, but Onyx likes to roam the apartment and it seems like it would be very stressful for her to be confined. 3. I feed my kitties Weruva canned and California Natural dry. I was thinking about supplementing with a vitamin like Nupro. Any suggestions in that department? Onyx is very picky, and it has been difficult to find foods that she will eat that don't upset her tummy. I guess that's it for now, any advice anyone can give will be most appreciated!!

[Felvtalk] (Fwd) Blood transfusion on Felv+ cat
--- Forwarded message follows --- From: Jennifer Dykhouse redg...@hotmail.com To: felvtalk-ow...@felineleukemia.org Subject:Blood transfusion on Felv+ cat Date sent: Wed, 21 Jan 2009 14:17:45 -0500 Hello everyone, I thought I'd let you know how the blood transfusion helped/didn't help my Felv+ cat, so that if you need to reach that decision, you can see my example. The day before we did the blood transfusion, Mr. Darcy's hematocrit count was at 7 (I was told that 30 is the lowest you can be and still be healthy). He was extremely lethargic and as a result would eat. He lost 2 pounds in a month (even with us assist feeding him) and he was starting to catch a respiratory bug. Right after the transfusion, which cost 800 dollars and took about 5 hours, his hematocrit was at 17. That's great, but I am upset. I was thinking he'd be brought up to a healthy level, not just a slightly better level. He had perked up and he is eating turkey baby food now, but he still is extremely tired and now he has balance troubles. What I am most upset with was the lack of information from my vet and the animal hospital. When told about the blood transfusion by my normal vet, she made it sound like he'd be back at a healthy level and that it could work for months and that it was perfectly safe. When we were handing him over to the vet at the hospital, he finally told me that Mr. Darcy could die during the procedure and that it may only last a few hours, days. I am furious. It makes me feel like money is more important then informing the owner. I have decided to not do any more transfusions due to the fact that he's in the last stage of his illness and going to the vet really stresses him out. He won't eat for the rest of the day and since the transfusion may only give him days, I would rather have him enjoy his last days/weeks. So right now, we're at the point where the most we can do is get him to eat and sleep and to pet him and love him as much as we can. Now, your cat may have a different experience, but I just wanted to tell my story.

[Felvtalk] ADMIN: bouncing mail
Hey everyone, There have been a number of 'bounced' messages to the list lately. This is because the messages exceed size limits for the list. Please remember to trim your messages to only what is relevant to your responses. There is no need to quote whole messages (and whole threads) when responding. I know that this is a 'default setting' on many email programs. So, please take a moment to remove unnecessary quoted material from the end of your replies. Feel free to contact me privately if you need assistance in learning how to do this with your particular mail program. Sorry if this message comes across as mean. I certainly don't intend it to be so. Take care, and best wishes to all. James G.

[Felvtalk] ADMIN: Gentle reminder about netiquette
Hello everyone, I apologize in advance for making this message longer than I'd first thought... Now that our list appears to be back up and running properly, I think it's time to send out a gentle reminder about netiquette and what this list's mission is. First, remember that this list is for discussions of feline leukemia, related treatments and support for those who are dealing with this dreaded disease. We do, however, allow a bit of off-topic discussion because of the close-knit nature of this group of wonderful people. If you do plan to post something that is off-topic (but, hopefully, somehow related to FeLV and/or list members), remember to put 'OT' (without the quotes) at the beginning of the subject line. Next, remember to properly edit your emails to this list. Lately, folks have been posting messages that contain the complete text of the entire thread to which they are responding. This is causing problems with both the digest mode and email size limits for this list. So, please edit your messages to contain only the relevant text of previous emails. If you need assistance with this, please contact me privately, and I'll try to explain it further. Also, attachments are NOT allowed. That means, do not attach pictures, pdf files, Word document files, Excel files, etc. I will not forward such messages to the list. Lastly, due to the nature of this disease and its effects on our furry friends, there is a potential for passionate debates every now and then. While this may be healthy in a general sense, please try to observe the following rules: No flaming- ie; no personal attacks, hostile language, personal threats, etc., No posting messages that proclaim a, my way or the highway type of rhetoric. We are a diverse group of people with varying opinions on which treatment options work best for our loved ones. Some here believe that certain treatment options are not viable (or are simply hokum) while others swear by a particular treatment. Some here believe in mixing positives and negatives while others say that it shouldn't happen at all. Even if you adamantly disagree with another list member's point of view, please be respectful and sensitive to their right to their opinions. Members are free to share their opinions, but they are not permitted to badger others into submission. It is my hope that this message will serve as a general guideline to posting to FeLVTalk. If I've forgotten something, or if you disagree with the content of this note, please contact me PRIVATELY to discuss it further. Please do not try to create a controversy on the list about all of this. Thank you. Best wishes to all. James G.

RE: Technical issues with FeLV/does anyone know the moderatorpersonally?
Hi Wendy and all, Sorry to take so long to respond to this concern. As has been posted, my health isn't that good. It's not bad, but it's not good either. When there are problems between list members, I tend to wait and let folks work it out for themselves (unless it turns into a flame war, of course). And, over the nearly ten years of running this list, I've only had to ban five people for continuing to cause trouble. This is a good list with good folk who are trying to care for their FeLV+ cats. There maybe differences of opinion on certain topics, but as long as everyone is respectful of others' opinions, all is well. Wendy, as to the problem with your Yahoo account, I'm not sure what to say other than Yahoo has had a lot of problems lately. They are testing various methods of SPAM control, so we are an occasional casualty. Also, I didn't receive your previous emails asking for assistance because the felvtalk-owner account is deluged with SPAM (several hundred per day now).

(Fwd) from Dede
from Dede: Hi everybody, I'm having my friend Missy write this for me. You wanted to know about Scooter, the FeLV positive cat at Jax HS. Yesterday (Thursday 4/12) they finished the forensics and they accounted for 68 cats. Scooter was not among them. There were four FeLV positive cats at the shelter. The week before the fire, three were moved out of the building. Scooter tested negative and was moved in with the other cats. When the fire broke out, he was in an area where the firemen first entered. When they began breaking windows and tearing down doors, they threw open all of those cages. The other cats that survived were in this area. All I can tell you is that Scooter's body was not found...so there's still hope. They think he escaped to the 14 acre woods next to the HS. He and one other cat are unaccounted for. The grey cat they found last week turned out to be white after they washed him! His name is Casper, and he was a nasty fellow and now he is a lap bunny. They are joking and saying there's nothing like losing 8 of your 9 lives to get a different perspective. My computer is off, and the furniture is ready to go (went Friday 4/13)! Cats and us go on the 21st. Take care, everyone. Dede and Ki

Hello all, I've received some private complaints about our list starting to drift from its mission of late. While a certain amount of activism and off-topic (OT) posting is allowed (and appreciated), the focus of our main topic is getting a bit drowned out. This is a high-volume list anyway, so too much OT posting makes it harder for folks in need to get advice and assistance. There are many activism/rescue lists that are more appropriate for extended conversations on such topics, so maybe pointing folks to those lists would help alleviate some of the congestion here.
