I think that your vet is right. I would never consider vaccinating a
sick kitty.
This is a link to C.A. Diodati. http://www.freeyurko.bizland.com/

She has researched and written exhaustively about vaccinations, and
is considered a sane
and reasoned voice on the subject.
I can't address the vaccinations that Autumn got but my holistic vets are
recommending titers to determine what a cat needs. Apparently a lot of animals
are having trouble with vaccinations. Others on the list can address this
better than I. Dixie tested FeLV+ and will never receive another v
I'm a big believer in Just Born with Colostrum..high quality/high

as well as for the ferals who are going into the winter and need to bulk up.

Since Autumn has been sick the vet didn't want to give her her booster. The
first time she got sick was two days after her first shots. She was found
outside and was relatively healthy. Has anyone else had problems with a cat
with viremia and vaccinations? Just curious.

i think that many of us have found, no matter what WE might have thought,
that sometimes the best diet for a cat--especially one with an underlying
problem--is whatever the heck they'll eat we all know 20-year-old cats

Hi Lance,

eating it and steadily gaining weight.

Newbies do not understand that advice may be very wrong. Oft

Yes, that makes sense.
I have a vet that only charges $15 for a fecal, but I know other vets
charge more.
And almost all rescue groups are disorganized. I've been told I am
one of the most organized ones, and I'm terribly disorganized - there
just are not enough hours in the day.

i have to agree with kerry--the archives on this list are great.

You'd be hard pushed to find better info than that in the archives on
this list. This was a second-to-none resource, put together by the folks
who really knew what they were talking about--folks with years of solid
experience of caring for FeLV cats.

Susan,
I like _The New Natural Cat_ by Anitra Frazier. I don't agree with
everything that she says, for example,
how she views feeding, but that's just my take on it. It's still an
excellent book. As with anything you
read here, it's a good idea to discuss anything you'd like to pursue
