Re: [Felvtalk] PLEASE HELP FRENCH FRY
French Fry was rescued yesterday. I was in comms with Linda yesterday one on one saying exactly what you said, that all I could do was pray. Within 30 minutes of me sending that email I got a reply back that Linda had placed the cat with someone about thirty minutes prior! Now that's an express answer to a prayer! :D Thought you would want to know.

Dear Stacy, I was beginning a military transfer from Chile to the DC area on Jan 2nd when I saw this post, and am just now settled down enough to find the time to reply. I was so saddened then, and I'm still sad now knowing that Spanky is gone. I'm sorry for this late reply, and I hope that it doesn't upset you too much to be reminded of his passing, but just know that I'm thinking about you and praying for you.

Re: [Felvtalk] how to know if your only needs a friend?
I'm with you Claudia!! The reality is that there are no rules... only imagined tendencies. :) I recently saw a very sweet movie called The Answer Man. I highly recommend it. In it, the lead female character said three things that she lives by that I totally love. 1) Never take advice from someone you wouldn't switch places with. 2) Try not to do anything you can't take back. 3) Something is what it is... and it's not something else. #3 is how I approach cat relationships, or for that matter humans too. It's personalities and chemistry. Nothing more. And thank God for that. It makes life joyfully interesting. :) Mike From: Claudia Veiga elisasta...@yahoo.com To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Fri, December 17, 2010 6:19:59 PM Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] how to know if your only needs a friend?

Re: [Felvtalk] Insight Please
Hi All, I live in Chile, and the feline specialist that we were so lucky to find explained it this way to me when only one of the two kittens we rescued tested positive. She says that a kitten will find a teat that they prefer on the mother, based on taste and smell, and that they will nurse only on that one and not move around. She said that a kitten will wait it's turn when there aren't enough to go around. She said that since it's a virus, it is possible that only one or some of the teats are infected, and therefore it would only be passed to the kittens that nursed on those particular ones. It seems like a plausible explanation. Can anyone out there concur about the selective nursing or possibility that if a mother is positive that not all of her teats would be infected?

Your'e right. They DO know when they are special in particular to you. And my heart sores knowing that Caeser had you to make him feel that way. The extra special and sweet posts, such as yours, are so heart warming even with the weight of the sorrow and the tears. It's the love in your/our heart(s) that shores itself up against that heavy load.

Re: [Felvtalk] I killed my kitten last night...
Dear Kim, So glad that you have the other three to help ease your hurt. Thank you for sharing images of the joy you two experienced. Paws on the face is one of the most 'human things they do, and is such a personal expression from them to us. In response, who hasn't munched down on those spongy little pads and play gobbled them up and not been bothered a bit by the sudden chalkiness of a little tidbit of litter! ;D To hear you focusing on those kinds of special moments means your heart is already mending, even though, yes, it will be very slow, especially in lost relationships. Each day the brokenness grows less, and God helps us to see through the clearer eyes of grace rather than the blurriness of sorrow. A little more emphasis on every precious moment you had with her comes more naturally than a painful thought or regret, and suddenly somehow you can talk about it without growing a pumpkin in your throat. :) That's God healing his child who honored him by loving and caring for his creation.

Re: [Felvtalk] I killed my kitten last night...
Dear Kim, Your little baby just couldn't do it any more. That's all. Her little precious life just expended itself. All the while she did have life in her, she had the warmth of your loving touch and the softness of your lips against her too, as surely you kissed her a thousand times or more in her brief little life. Love is our only true form of communication with these precious creatures God has blessed us with, so you no doubt talked her little ears off. :) I know you are suffering and questioning yourself. That's natural. Just don't burden yourself with too much of the latter. You didn't intend any harm upon her, so your heart is pure. Please believe that. I cried for you this morning knowing the pain you are feeling, and my heart hurts for you. Let me, and others here, lift you up with our prayers and affirmations of your love and kindness. May God bless you. Mike 3 ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
