Marissa,
Loved reading your post. Congratulations on your new
family! I think you will all be very happy once
everyone is settled into their routine. These two
kitties are very lucky to have you.

Dear Marissa,
I just wanted to tell you/let you know from my own (horrific)
experience[s], NEVER give up or lose hope...
My dear, old, ancient Puma had fallen out a window [ground level, rotten
window locks ] and was gone for what seemed like forever. I did all the
same things [w/out
Hey Jenna Marissa,
I know both of you are considering adopting kitties
with eye issues. I was reading the January 2007 issue
of Best Friends Magazine tonight and there's an
article on pages 36-37 about blind pets and a
subarticle on living with blind pets, in case you are
interested. Here's
I know whoever ends up in your home is going to be very fortunate. I am happy
that you have decided to give your abundant love and care to more furbabies.
Blessings,

Rufus sounds like a CH kitty (Cerebellar Hypoplasia), they are WONDERFUL, so

you should join handicats2 (it's another email group), where they are others

Hey Marissa,
How are you doing today? You sound pretty upbeat in
your posts, so I hope you're feeling good. Slinky is
probably so happy to see you doing well, watching you

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can
through this stuff without you!!! I hope all your
furbabies are doing well!!!

Reading Patience's story made me cry (yes, I too end up crying a lot at
work) -- to think of the cruelty she's already endured in her little
life. I'm so glad she seems to be on her way to a great new home even
if it isn't yours.
Rufus and Justin look delightful. I hope you get
Marissa,
All of those furbabies look so precious!!! I can see
why Patience is popular. She definitely has a
heart-wrenching story to tell, but it's going to have
a beautiful ending, I know. Have you been able to
spend any time with your prospective furbabies?
Hopefully, that will give you

Hi Marissa,
I knew you were taking Slinky for pts yesterday
evening, but hadn't heard anything since, so I guess I
was secretly hoping he had rallied at the last minute
and was still here. After reading your post to
Elizabeth, I know that is not the case, and I wanted
to tell you how sorry I am
Hey Marissa,
I am just now catching up on the weekend's emails. I
hope that Slinky is doing better after resting this
weekend. I think you hit the nail on the head when
you said you are doing everything you can. And it's
out of love, and Slinky knows that. I hope to read
that Slinky is better

Hey Marissa,
I feel kind of bad now sending that out. If I had
thought about it, I wouldn't have because stuff like
this does tend to stress out people who are already
stressed about their pet's health. I apologize. I am
not sure what to think about it. I am interested in
what other people
Marissa,
Get the numbers out of your head. They won't do you any good at this
point except to possibly make you feel disheartened. We all have a
tendency to mourn our babies before they are gone, maybe it's sometimes
necessary to prepare ourselves, but the most important thing I've found
Duh! I feel so stupid not suggesting the Doxy
treatment also. I know you said that Slinky had been
on 2 rounds of antibiotics; which kinds were they?
Hemobartanella is very hard to diagnose, so even with
a negative hemobart test, I would still definitely go
with the 2 week doxy treatment in

Thanks Wendy, I am better but not 100%. I know I'll never stop missing her or worrying about the mistakes I may or may not have made, but the pain has been more manageable this week. We got her urn back on Tuesday and it gave us some closure. The presentation was so beautiful. Along with the urn

Hi Marissa,
Did the vet say whether or not Jake had any
reticulocytes present in his blood? This is
important, because it tells you whether or not he is
still making red blood cells or not. I put you and
Jake on my prayer list.

Thank you Wendy. The vet did say that Jake's anemia is non-regenerative. I am still new to this so I am not hip on the terminology but am learning. Thanks for your prayers! I am taking him in to get another epogen shot today, and hopefully he will respond.

I have heard good things about Epogen, even with
