My two dear Kerrys,
Thank you for letting me know you're thinking of us. I've been assist

With my distemper kittens, my holistic vet gave me basically the same
recipe.
We started the kits out w/ colustrum w/ olive leaf extract, and now, since
the girls are doing so well, we have continued w/ the recipe, in addition to

I think that it is reasonable to feel like you should let him be, and let him live, especially since he still has a good appetite. Does he like attention? I don't know if you were on the list in January, when my Simon, who ultimately died a month later, was so bad he was unable to walk, etc.
I agree with Michelle if he has a
good appetite, please let him live I have known cats who actually lost

How do Sebastian's gums look? Are they pale? How's his breathing?
He could be fighting anemia...but I'm guessing the vets would have
tested for that when they saw him last...are they leaning towards
something neurological? It may help your piece of mind knowing what

OK folks - thanks to the Purring Pixie list, we now have 4 new FELV babies
here in Little Rock. They went to Missouri first, but then we had a
couple of openings and Missouri allowed them to come to us. I have two,
and Susan is taking two.
Have you heard of this - They had FELV as babies,
Nina - I am so sorry that Gracie is not feeling 100% - I just read this
message - I am so praying that she is going to bounce back very very
soon! Ginger did not eat on her own over week - but then her appetite
came back all of sudden, and I am hoping that Gracie will do the same..
Keep me
Have they had FeLV since they were babies? If so, maybe we should talk to our vets about this protocol!

I have found that interest in food sometimes builds gradually. When Ginger started showing some interest in food and taking a lap or two, she was eating again within about 2 days.

Nina, which needles are you using and are you warming the bag of the
fluid - since I have been on CRF group, I learned lots of information -
there are some needles much easier to use on kitties than others - so I
can send you some.. also she will feel better if the bag is warmed a
little... soak
Interesting theory. I'd be curious to hear what any veterinary
personnel on the list might have to say about this.

Jennifer, only you can decide what is best for Sebastian. If
there is any way you can at least get blood work done, I would encourage you to
do that. You can learn a lot from that.
Sebastian will tell you what he wants. Just sit with him, and let him
tell you. Sometimes they want us to
Hi, Kerry, Ceaer and his little sister
Annie are not doing too well I think they are still nursing some, they
dont want to eat on their own.. and Ceaser is acting he is still not
feeling well (they also have URIs) I have been force feeding a couple
of them a few times a day.
Also,
Yes, The doctors do believe that his problems may be neurological. He is not anemic that I know of. He had blood work done about two months ago and everything looked purrfect! He is happy when I am around and purrs alot. Ho does seem a little depressed though becuase he can't walk around.
I know it is horrible and I would be freaked out too, but I truly believe that if he purrs when you are near, eats, and even plays with string, he is not as bad of as many. That is a lot of quality of life. Humans who lose the ability to walk also get depressed, but their life continues and

I second that. I have seen acupuncture do amazing things. The vet acupuncturist who does acupuncture on our sheep, Lamby, said he did acupuncture on a dog that seemed paralyzed from an attack injury and the conventional vets had given up, and the dog was walking around after 3 acupuncture
Also sooner is better before he
loses the control of the entire function you will have much more
success can he feel anything on his hind legs.. if so, its a
good sign, if you havent tried it, I would tried it asap I had
two paralyzed dogs and started walking with acupuncture

Before you decide to do anything, and if it is right for

serious/surgical testing for Kitty. Like you, I desperately want to know

would want done if

Those signs that they're feeling a little better are so precious. (I know
how often I've longed for them and they never came again.) Praying that dear
