Re: [Felvtalk] Little Girl Coco

Kelley, I get it. When my first one tested positive for the first time, I freaked. I was ready to separate him out, which would have made him very sad. My Vet looked at me and said "that ship has sailed". They'd all been together long enough that any transmission would have already happened. Since

Re: [Felvtalk] Capstar/Nytenpyram

  Kelley, you do what you have to do. I have more issue with using a collar, than the chemical part, but that's a personal choice. I had the same incredible level of fleas this year, and the flea traps really helped. One of my FeLV+ boys has major flea allergies, and we've kept that manageable

What is too expensive? The catnip is a nice idea, but with dogs and people in and out all day, I don't think it will help. Besides, I would (unintentionally) kill it... -Original Message- >From: dlg...@windstream.net >Sent: Sep 29, 2015 1:45 AM >To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org

Re: [Felvtalk] Little Girl Coco

I spoke to him about the Winstrol and he agreed it would be a good idea. We did not go further than that. I have a diarrhea problem we are trying to deal with and I think a specialist may end up getting involved. It is nothing that shows up in a regular vet office type fecal and antibiotics and

Re: [Felvtalk] Capstar/Nytenpyram

You cannot kill catnip, not once it is established. We have pulled it (a piece of the root always survives), it loves Roundup, even vinegar has a problem dispatching it. That is why my yard is full of it. I just cut and re cut and recut. Margo wrote: >

Re: [Felvtalk] Little Girl Coco

Kelly, be brave. My vet told me that as long as the others are vaccinated, you are safe. The idea is to reduce stress for them, keeping her seperae adds a lot of stress. My positives and negative have been eating from he same bowls, drinking from the same fountains, sleeping on my bed,

Re: [Felvtalk] Little Girl Coco

I agree Kelley. Do what you think is best. Unfortunately, only you get to live with the consequences of your decision. I learned that the hard way and always keep that in mind when deciding what to do. When I close my eyes at night, I don't want to be tortured but what I should have done but

Re: [Felvtalk] Little Girl Coco

I would go ahead with the Winstrol. The diarrhea shouldn’t interfere with it and it won’t worsen the diarrhea. My experience is that when they start to pick up, eat better, keep the weight on, etc., that the diarrhea gets better on its own. In any event, the diarrhea isn’t so concerning when

Re: [Felvtalk] Little Girl Coco

By the way, various vets have told me regarding mixing vaccinated negatives and positives everything from "FELV is so contagious that if a positive cat licks a blade of grass and your negative cat comes along and licks the same blade of grass they will be infected" to "it's no big deal." So at
