Re: OT: Charlie (FIV+ in MA) needs help and a home
Yes, I am very lucky to have found him. Sometimes he seems too good
to be true. Especially since I often seem like a "special needs" partner!

Hi Michelle,
Charlie sounds like a great guy and with you in his corner, I'm sure things will work out very well for him!
Since he is in close proximity to a sheep and a horse, is it possibly that they have some kind of a parasite that he's picked up? I'm thinking especially of lice, although
Thanks, Julie. There was a ringworm epidemic at the shelter many months
before Charlie got there, so maybe it is that. Though it does not look like
ringworm, but from your post I guess sometimes maybe it doesn't look
stereotypical.
They did a skin scraping to check for mange, but I do not

Actually, going to visit my mom and my 28 year old horse in NJ. If everyone
is healthy and mobile, that will be enough to please me.

And I called and left a message at the shelter about the ringworm already.
And am spending so much time getting things ready for the cat sitter (Gray is
away too) that I am never going to even get out of the house!

Michelle...
I do hope someone comes forward to give Charlie a loving home and the special
care he needs. Bless you (and Gray!) for being there to care for Charlie and
try to help him find a better situation.
Have a good visit and be sure to give your horse a carrot and a hug for me.
I hope
My vet says turning the heat on in the winter can cause it because of both stirring up any allergens in the system and the dryness as well

Yes, good idea. Of course, Gray just bought him a ton of chicken food. The odd thing is that he came from a feral colony,
Poor Charlie,
I wish I could take him. I had an fiv that sounds a lot like him. Honestly, out of the many, many cats I've dealt with, he was the sweetest cat I've ever known. Everyone wanted to take him from me!
He basically had no ears left when I found him from scratching at ear mites. After
Michelle,
My heart goes out to you, you have been thru so much. I don't
know of anyone around here that has romm for another FIV+, sorry, but here are
some sites you could cross post on. I actuallywas able to place some
seniors and disabled cats using a couple of these sites. It's worth a
Patti, thank you so, so much! I had just found the FIV yahoo group and
joined and posted about him. I will post about him on all the other addresses
you sent me too. Thank you!!!

Charlie sounds like such a wonderful guy. I know of one local person
that just lost her FIV cat, she swore 'never again', but we all know
that's not true. I'm forwarding your email about Charlie to her.
Something that has occurred to me in the past, I'm not sure how to even
go about it, but...
Thanks, Nina, but aren't you in California? I'm in Massachusetts, so
it might be kind of hard to get him to California!
I was at Gay Pride in Boston last summer and a shelter from a town near
Boston actually had a similar idea to yours-- they had a stand set up with
information about FIV
Michelle, Just going thru some of my files. Found some
holistic items you might want to try:
Vetri-Science Derma Strength for Cats - specially for skin
allergies immune support
Health Cocerns Skin Balance - A Chinese herbal remedy for
allergies, skin coat problems
Seven Forest Quercenol -
Wow, thanks! If you were to try one of these, which one would you try
first? I have to go find him and pill him twice a day and am already giving him
2 pills each time so do not want to add much more. He also does not have his own
food so can not get stuff in food. Though I guess I could
Yes, CA is far away, but you never know what might come from asking!
This lady is a board member of a rescue group that has helped me in the

I was just thinking how wonderful it would be to be able to adopt
someone so deserving. Don't you envy
Michelle,

In regards to diet. It is wise to r/o food allergies. I
fostered 2 little darlings that came to me almost bald. :(
After trial error, we found success using a rabbit or
duck formula, exclusively. Ended up feeding that to everyone, it was impossible
to feed dry
