okay, here's the latest.

part of me is screaming hissed, because it turns out that dear josie
is probably NOT positive to start with--she came from a shelter that
we know is using the new test, and NONE of the FIV/FeLVs, supposedly,
from there have retested positive.

she went to ANOTHER vet hospital to have the transfusion continued, as
of last night, she was up to 19

so the first vet who suspected mycoplasma hemofelis, but didn't test
for it, nor put her on doxy, was the real culprit.

lots (LOTS) of vet bills later, but josie's a much happier cat, and
now we're just trying to smooth the feathers of all the humans
involved.

PLEASE enter your good vets' info into the database at
www.adopt.bemikitties.com so we know where to find help when it's
needed.

thanks.
