Hi Sally, Thanks for the info. I am happy to hear a good ending with your story. I will search for non kill shelters and post adoptable felv cats when I can. Thanks again. Jenny SALLY NORDSTROM ms...@sbcglobal.net wrote: Hi, Jenny. Wisconsin Humane Society will, indeed, euthanize

Sally, truly a bummer about your workplace, I believe the attitude out there right now is be thankful you have a job -- never mind that you can't make ends meet on what they pay you. Hopefully things will get better in the coming year or so. I hope we can all at least hang on to what we've got

Hi diane They are very shrewd where I am employed. They made the furlough short enough so it does not qualify for unemployment. I do believe things will pick up again, but I am preparing for another career. I am getting ready to take a certificate program in Medical billing and coding. Of course

Sally -- my housemate took the medical coding class, online, a few years ago, at which point the bottom apparently dropped out of the medical coding biz, at least around here. So she puts stickers on at In-Sink-Erator. Her furlough days are usually only 1 day at a time, and she can still get

I am sad to say that my baby Ben has gone home to be with the Lord at 2:53 a.m. on January 14, 2009. My heart is broken and I can't imagine this horrible pain ever subsiding. Thank you all for your help. Please add him to the CLS. This is a ruthless unfair disease and a horrible way for our babies

I'm so sorry for your loss--it is so very hard. But Ben hasn't really left you--you may not see him or touch him but you will always feel him in your heart. That is the legacy they leave us... Chris ti...@mindspring.com -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org

April.I'm so sorry you lost Baby Ben. Two days after Christmas I lost two FelV kittens who only lived to be 8 months old. It is SO hard and seems so unfair. You did so much to help Benny, and perhaps you now have room in your home and your heart to help another cat or kitten in need. We all

I find it the most help for my grief when I lose a kitty to find another one who needs me (unfortunately, that's not too hard to do). The only other thing that helps is the passage of time. Thank you April for taking such good care of Baby Ben. Pat - Original Message - From: Lorrie

You cope by knowing you gave our friend love and care, things he would not have known without you; by learning from him because he had lessons to teach and lessons to learn; by knowing your love was returned. The pain will dull as you let his love reach into your heart. It is awful and

April, I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Ben. Most of us have been through this and understand how devastating it is. It makes you feel so helpless to lose a sweet, beloved wonderful cat to this horrible disease. I just lost my Buzz not even two months ago and it still feels awful.

Regarding the doxycycline and ulcers, the vet (a fill in at my regular vet's office) who prescribed doxycycline for my positive said that specifically the pill form has a tendency to lodge in the cat's esophagus and lead to severe ulcers. We instead went with a compounded liquid version.
