Hi. I would give him Immuno-regulin shots (article on website), which have really helped a few of our cats with URI's.  Also, I would syringe feed him to get food into him, as he can get fatty liver disease if he goes more than a day or two without real nutrition. Michelle

Hi, I was just on vacation and hired an incredible cat sitter. I got really lucky, she did some research on Felv+ kitties and was great with my girls. Might it be possible for you to find a petsitter or travelling vet in your area? I know it's tough to find someone you can trust with Satch! Good l

o have been put through that.   I'll call the airline now and see what it will cost.  I think that the fee will be more like $130, but comparatively it might be worth it.    He licked the liver shake off of my finger, but wasn't interested in the plate of it that I put down for him.   Leslie

Hi Leslie, I wish Satch were doing better for you. I know you are frustrated. Several people here have said that you can use people expectorants with kitties but I don't know any more than that. Maybe someone will post more, or you can call and ask your vet. Also, there may be info. on it in t

Hi Kat, Thank you for the suggestion, it's good one.  When the vet calls back I'll ask if he has any recommendations, I don't believe that they board at their office.  If the cost is more than changing the ticket, then I'll stay, if not, I'll go.  And hopefully he wouldn't need to get forcefed the

Hi, I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond, but things change so fast and I hate writing all optimistically just to be congratulated and have to reply with bad news.   Satch held his appetite and a ~102 degree fever over the weekend.

Oh for God's sake, Satch better be okay. With situations like this I usually stop praying to Spirit and start threatening :). You did good taking him in right away. It sounds like you met a nice new vet in the process and he knows about the 'don't wait and see approach for a pos', that's a g
