Re: To Jennifer re new kitty with FeLV
Midnight is about 8 mo. He was a stray so I am unsure of his exact age. He peed on my kids in bed last night. I am going to take him to the vet Monday. I have got to get him to stop doing this. wendy wrote: Hi Jennifer, I have been reading about your new Kitty, and a few of the symptoms you wrote about sound like hyperthyroidism. Drinking water all the time and going around the house meowing, especially at night, are both symptoms. We have a cat with hyper T. To check for it, you have to get a T4 test at the vets. If it's expensive, you might as well get a whole blood panel done. HyperT is more common in older cats. How old is your new kitty? :) Wendy 8:00? 8:25? 8:40? Find a flick in no time with the Yahoo!

Re: Getting cat prescriptions filled on line
I think your vet has to prescribe this one. You can buy elavil in tablet form from http://www.1drugstore-online.com/ without a prescription.

Please pray for Lucy
The vets are still all stumped by her case but think it is wet fip. I have been researching feverishly and she is on a lot of meds and is eating, but otherwise seems to be going downhill. Someone on an fip list serve emailed me about a cat who had all the same symptoms plus additional ones who was not given any hope and was hospitalized and not eating. The man got all his friends to pray for his cat, even though he himself was not religious, and his cat inexplicably completely recovered. The vets can not explain it, but it is 5 months later and he is fine. I have read medical studies saying that people who are prayed for tend to get better more frequently and faster, for whatever reason (the study was written by doctors from a medical, not religious, perspective and they offered no hypothesis of why). So I am asking all of you to pray for Lucy to get better, for her to start producing red blood cells again and for the fluid to go away from her belly and for her symptoms to all get better. If you would pray for her even once, I would appreciate it. I have tried everything else. thanks as always, Michelle

Michelle, please do remember, *always*, that a 100% reliable assessment of FIP (dry or wet) CANNOT be made until the cat is alive: only necroscopic exams could tell the final word.

Re: Please pray for Lucy
A couple of the segments provided are not running for me, (the movie is divided into 20 minute or so segments to make viewing on line easier), but what I have seen so far makes so much sense to me. One of the premises is that we attract what we think about, what we feel about, into our lives and that those thoughts don't differentiate between the negative and the positive. When you concentrate on not wanting something, you are still giving it power. Instead of focusing on what you don't want, (which amplifies it and brings it into your life), concentrate on the opposite, what you do want. So instead of concentrating your fears on fip, concentrate on good health instead. We touched on this a little last night, (another coincidence?). I have always been told by animal communicators that animals don't recognize negative word structure. Being a dog trainer, I have long been aware that it is easier to educate using affirmatives. Instead of No barking, use quiet, instead of No jumping, praise four on the floor and say off. Animals relate to what you are thinking, not what you are necessarily intending. Just maybe, the universe works in the same way.

Re: Please pray for Lucy
I know. And we are treating for toxo, which does not really seem to be working so far. Next step is probably to treat for small cell lymphoma and fip inflammation at the same time with leukeran. But that suppresses the bone marrow and wbc, so my vets do not want to put her on it until we have completely given up on the abx working. The only way to really diagnose her would be exploratory surgery with multiple tissue biopsies (they can definitively diagnose fip if they find it in a tissue biopsy-- that is how they do it in necropsies as well), and I do not want to put Lucy through exploratory surgery because she is FeLV+, anemic, weak, and almost seemed like she would not recover from the ultrasound/biopsy-- just sat in sick cat position staring into space for half a day afterwards and would not look at me or eat until the evening. So I am afraid the surgery could kill her. So I am trying to treat for the treatable things they might find in a biopsy, which I was told would only be a) infection, b) cancer, or c) fungal infection. We are treating for toxo, an infection, right now. If it is cancer, the only really treatable kind is lymphoma, which the oncologist does not think she has because the enlarged lymph nodes in her abdomen did not have any lymphoma cells and neither did the fluid in her belly. But I think if we give up on the abx, the next step is leukeran in case it is lymphoma, since it is also used to treat fip-related inflammation. Fungal infection seems least likely and the medication apparently makes them feel sick, so that is probably last, unless the internist decides otherwise. So I have not given up hope. But when she is so tired, and her pcv is still going down, and her belly keeps getting bigger, it is frightening. That is why I ask for prayer. That said, I put her collar on her, with the bells, and asked her if she wanted to go outside. She just sat there and looked at me, so I went into the kitchen. When I looked up she was walking through the kitchen to the back door. I let her out and she walked around a while, jumped up on a stone wall, walked around some more. She meowed strangely a few times. When well, she is quite talkative, but some of these meows sounded different and I got scared. But she then climbed up on top of the picnic table in the sun. I plugged in her heating pad out there and she got on it, and we spent about an hour outside in the (cold) sun. She purred when we pet her. I eventually brought her in because the clouds covered the sun and her ears got ice cold, and she meowed at me the whole time I was taking her in because she did not want to go. Once in, she ate some, and then curled up on her heating pad. She rolled on her back for a while like she was really happy, now is fast asleep on her side. So better afternoon than I was expecting! Perhaps because of the prayers! Or perhaps because she heard a mouse this morning and that excited her. Or perhaps if I had asked her any of these past days if she wanted to go out and put her collar on, perhaps she would have responded the same way. I don't know. But I am glad and grateful for it.

Re: Please pray for Lucy
Hi Michelle, I hope Lucy is eating and feeling better today..I am behind as usual..I was wondering if they sent the blood off to be checked for toxo...When Bandy first saw the eye spec., that was the first test he wanted to do and really only thing Bandy hadn't been checked for in the past..Here in TX they usually send everything to Texas A and M, but this time they sent it to Colorado..it took awhile to get the results, too..He was negative..If they haven't done the toxo blood test, they should...cause that would eliminate unnecessary meds that Lucy might not need right now...and I believe that was some of Bandy's problems near the end...too many meds...which I believe caused the liver failure..He couldn't process all the things he was getting.. Also, my kitty that had lymphoma lived on 20mg of pred daily the rest of her life..along with her several months of chemo..They used adriamycin for her..with great results..She was in remission for almost 9 months..How much pred is Lucy on now? I read some where that you were using the Merck vet book..I have a new one and use it all the time..Check it for FIP and toxo and anything else if you haven't already..The IBD section is really good as well..It has the protocol that we are using for Lucy and Inky. Also it mentions using dex daily for IBD.. .22mg per kg. I found that quite helpful.. Bandy also had non-regenerative anemia...I put him on folic acid from the health food store..800mcg pills...I would sprinkle some on every meal he ate...I really believe along with the epogen and added supps it helped him..cause his internal med specialist said anemia would be his ultimate fate, and it wasn't..His PCV would drop at times to around 20, but then go right back up to 30+..He only received epogen for around 5 wks..and he had quick results which isn't usually the case..His PCV went up rather fast.. He was also on Co Q 10 30mg daily along with 2 other supps that I got from onlynaturalpet.com. feline immune system support and extra strength immune and antioxidant support...I would alternate those 2. Vit E 400mg weekly.. 500mg L-lysine daily I am sorry to go on and on, but I am just trying to see if any of these things might be something that might help Lucy.. I guess you remember he was on interferon mixed with liqui-tinic (which is a good iron support) daily..I mixed 1/2 cc of this with his interferon..

Re: Please pray for Lucy
Thanks, Kerry. I am already giving Lucy all that you mention other than the chemo and coq10, but maybe I will get some Until yesterday she was on 10 mg/day of pred but I upped her yesterday to 12.5. I am all for more steroids if this is not something infectious. my local vet wants to wait on more steroids until we see if the abx will kick in, though he does not think it is toxo at this point. He did not want to take enough blood to send out a test, since clindamycin, the abx to treat toxo, was recommended by the internist for Lucy as a broad-spectrum abx to be on anyway in case she has some other kind of infection. Apparently it has few side effects. Do you think I should up her pred? I am thinking of asking for a dex shot or dex pills on Tuesday when the vet opens (closed tomorrow for a funeral). I have only been giving 100 mcg of folic acid. You really gave 800 mcg/day? That is twice the human dosage of what I have. If that is really what you gave, I will up what I am giving her.

Just saw this. Be very careful. From the 4 experiences I had with my cat, the first was when I had just gotten out of the hospital myself, and it was obvious he needed help. But the next 3 times, he was at 13, and once he had a minor respiratory infection to boot. At those times he wasn't obviously in any distress. The thing that alerted me was his faster heart rate after any real activity, and a bit of panting. He paradoxically has never stopped eating, his appetite has been fairly constant all along. You want to deal with it before it gets too bad, because most cats will hide sickness like that well (if it's only gradual onset of pernicious anemia). I think it's more of a case of watching the individual cat, and if he/she is acting out of the norm as far as energy and/or breathing, be safe rather than sorry. It would be great to find a way to get a quick PCV without committing to a transfusion if you suspect the anemia is getting bad.
Re: Transfusions
One more thing to consider when you are possibly looking at a transfusion. Depending on where you live and where you go, the cross-matching process might be a lengthy one. I don't have problems with that, because the employees at my vet's are glad to have their own animals donate God thanks. But if there is a delay in finding a proper donor, it lengthens the process, which is bad for the animal in more than one way. So again, to be on the safe side, I would suggest from my limited experience that anyone who thinks they're seeing very low PCVs from their animal's activity level etc. gets their cat's PCV checked ASAP.
Re: ot: transdermal benedryl gel for allergies
Thank you so much for telling me about this, Michelle. It makes a world of difference for Phelix. He doesn't mind when I rub it in his ear and he seems a lot more comfortable. I wouldn't be surprised if the fur grew back on his tummy. We really appreciate the tip. elizabeth On 1/28/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I just saw this email. It was me.

Re: Please pray for Lucy
I think the epogen worked in less than 2 wks...They all said that was very fast as it usually takes longer..He was at 20 and it went to over 32 in around 10 days. He was only on it for around 5 wks..as when he went to the specialist, the pcv had already dropped again to 23..so she stopped it due to he might have been going to develope antibodies to it..which usually happens if they are on it too long..We stopped and were going to use it again later if he needed it, but he never did...Then all I know is maybe the folic acid and other supps that I gave him helped...I would break open the cap and sprinkle some on every meal..It was hard to tell for sure how much he was getting, but the cap would be gone in 2 days or less..I just sprinkled a small amount on all meals...I would up Lucy's though.. I would probably up the pred, too just in case you think you are dealing with some sort of cancer (lymphoma). I sure hope you get some dex pills...my vet just wrote a script for me and I had it filled. I am going to ask for some more just in case I need it for Inky.. Bandy's pcv was 32 just days before he passed away and for the most part had been in the 30's for the last yr except on a few occasions when we had it checked.. I know we used 1 bottle and part of another at a different strength... He got .07 of the first bottle then the other was .14..so I am thinking now that he was on it maybe 6 wks..I would have to look back at his records.. Hope I haven't totally confused you..Wish I could be of more help.. Kerry, Angel Bandy and Inky - Need a quick answer? Get one in minutes from people who know. Ask your question on Yahoo! Answers.
RE: Chris and Mylo
Mylo went to the specialist yesterday. The doctor was very nice and seemed very educated on FeLV. He said that Mylo's kidney's are very inflamed, and that he believe's that Mylo has lymphoma and possibly liver disease. This diagnosis didn't surprise me as I know lymphoma can accompany FeLV. Mylo is dehydrated even though I give him water throughout the day. He's just not drinking enough on his own. So the vet said Mylo would have to be hospitalized, have a blood transfusion, be put on meds and have chemotherapy. He said that even if I did all those things, Mylo would most likely only have 4 to 5 months to live. I am glad I went to the appointment because I wanted a specialist's opinion even though I know how bad off Mylo is. Mylo has hardly eaten the last couple of days. His energy is still very low, and the sick meow sound that he makes once and a while is very painful to hear. Mylo's quality of life has deteriorated within the last month and I don't want to put him through any more stress than he's already gone through. I tried my best to find a way to help him get better but I have to accept that there is nothing more I can do to help him become healthy again. That is a difficult thing.

Re: Chris and Mylo
Oh Chris...this is so hard. I am so sorry the prognosis was not better. You can let him know that you love him and comfort him. I know it is so hard to talk about - but there comes a time when the kindest gift you can give is freedom from pain and suffering. You will know if that time comes. Every day is so precious. My heart is with you. elizabeth On 1/28/07, Chris Ramzy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Mylo went to the specialist yesterday. The doctor was very nice and seemed very educated on FeLV.
