Thank you Wendy.
I will call my vet today about the Doxycycline and Hemobartanella.
Here are the results of BooBoo's blood work. This is a Canadian lab so I don't
know if the values are the same as in the US.

Wendy, if it isn't already too late with the anemia he has I will do

I know. I once knew a 25-year-old cat and thought that was really

It's easy: Just put BooBoo on your lap, put a little food on your

They're doing pretty darn good - I never expected them to live this

Thanks again, Kerry. It was so good of you to put these together.
Jane, I think that's a wonderful idea. I was telling our vet about the good
stories tonight and he was very interested. We've determined this is a really
terrific guy we've found. He's attempting to adopt out a just diagnosed FelV
cat because as he confided to us tonight, he just loves this

Not too long ago, when I was as 'shell shocked' as you are now, a

it is her belief that these Felv kitties are often 'sent' to us to

Get a bowl of pretty hot water. Put the bowl of food in the hot
water. It will take a few minutes but the heat will transfer and you
will not dilute the food. If you want to mix a liquid in it try a
broth (chicken, beef etc). Again, you will be adding to the food.
