Hi guys,
Took your advice and found an internist (I live in Cleveland, and
surprisingly it took me 3 hours to find the nearest one which was 1/2 hour
away). I was not impressed w/this doc at all. (Had all files faxed to him
before appt). He looked at his gums and said he's anemic (doc I saw
Lisa,
I would not give him flea medication while he is sick, unless
he is clearly infested. Interferon, while possibly prophylactic, has never, to
my knowledge, helped a cat get over anemia or anything serious like that.
Immuno-Regulin maybe, but not interferon. It has done more for mouth
Not impressed with this guy, my vet always starts with blood work and
goes from there. Did he do that or is he just suggesting all this other
stuff before that even?

Lisa,

couple days ago...
Chronic gum problem I called it... My cat has had most of his teeth
pulled and he still
has the problem.. I have had this pos cat for 3 years now and he has
always had this problem
but he is healthy active
Hi Lisa,
Well that sounds like a terrible experience for the two of you! I'm so
sorry that your search for a vet that can help you and Chester is still
ongoing. I take it this Internist wasn't recommended by your current
vet, sounds like no one would recommend him! As far as Chester's

Hi Nina
Yes I did.. But my cat with no teeth and sore gums that make him cry

These two bother me the most:
Felv $28.69FIP $46
For one, you already KNOW he has FELV, so WHY waste the money testing
again?
Secondly.. and foremost: THERE IS NO TEST FOR FIP This guy is a MORON
if he says there is!
