Hello all:
I am not sure if my previous post went out correctly but if it did I have
an update on Ziggy and really need some help on what to do. Went to the
vet yesterday who ran Ziggy's blood work which showed him to be "moderately"
anemic. Vet immediately gave him a shot of immon regulin

I can't help you with the kittens and adoption (2 reasons - 1, I'm in Mississippi--not Kentucky, and 2, I'm allergic to most cats and cannot adopt one without having first been around it to see if I react or not since some aggravate my allergies more than others). However, I do have a 1 1/2 year
This is one of the reasons I hate dealing withcertain shelters/humane societies up here. This person just got caught but it happens all the time and it leaked out to the press.
They use the "No Kill Policy" that is a crock of you know what.
Do it Karen...your not stepping on my toes. I want this girl to have a good life. I'm behind you on this.
P.S
Pam is there a way you can arrange transport from TX to WA for me on a Siamese baby that Karen has?
Thanks!

My god, the numbers for 2005 and 2004 show a euthanasia rate
of about 50% In 2004 that was almost 25 EVERY DAY. This place must

Maybe if they spent that 7 million spaying and neutering strays, they wouldn't have so many end up being killed. Hm. Cheap vets charge about 50 bucks to spay/neuter. 140,000 (if my math is right, which is may not be) animals could be spayed or neutered with 7 million bucks!~Ashleighgary
Niki,
The things you are doing (steroids, immuno-regulin) are a good
start, but you need to find out what is causing the anemia. If it is lymphoma,
he will not get better without chemo (which might or might not put him into
remission). If it is hemobartonella, he needs doxicycline (and

It is with great sadness that I must tell you that we

Niki,
When my Cricket was first diagnosed with anemia, I
felt the same way you did. This ominous feeling just
ate away at me the whole time he was ill. It was
horrible. But luckily, Ziggy is moderately anemic.

might be able to turn him

Absolutely, these kittens, IF they are positive, as

Hi again,
I met with my vet and she put Loca on interferon,
vitamin C and vitamin E. My neighbor who works at a vet clinic was able to point
me to where I could buy the interferon and I got it today. Reading the document
wendy sent me it sounds like I should be giving her 30 IU a day. The
The interferon leaves the body very quickly so I see no reason to do 7 on 7

I use it everyday.
Karen
I do daily interferon. I'm told that for FELV cats, one theory is
that they don't produce enough interferon. So doesn't make sense to
do the on and off.
Just what I've heard and practiced, there's so much that we really
don't know about FELV.
