angel's gate hospice site for chili and salsa?

they do "treat" the feline leukemia cats. 



RE: Still looking for adoptive home for Chili and Salsa

2005-02-23 Thread Chris









Melissa,

I had visited Angels Gate last year
 they were renovating a sep little house on the grounds for felv+ cats.
They do seem to be devoted to the multitude of animals they care for and
consider themselves hospice care. Started out, I believe,
for dogs with paralysis  it went from there. The whole place is set
up for animals of all sorts (they are also wildlife rehabilitators). If
you can visit, you might have a better shot at getting them in.

try
throwing yourself on themercy of Angel's Gate in Fort Salonga here on Long
Island. Iknow they have a waiting list for the leukemia kitties but maybe if
you also sent them your website info to show all you've been thru with these
sweeties they might be able to jump the list. i dont' have the website but that
info i gave you should turn them up on a google. the director's name is Susan i
believe. just sorry i can't take them. if she says no, then press her for
leads to other places or adopters...

Subject: Still
looking for adoptive home for Chili and Salsa











I feel like a broken record. I am still looking for an adoptive
home for Chili and Salsa.











Here is
the deal guys:











They
are beautiful. They are soft. They are sweet and funny and playful. But they
can't stay here forever. I live in a two bedroom apartment that is carpeted. My
dog was just diagnosed with the first stages of renal insufficiency. I have a
17 month old toddler. Seven animals, carpet, and toddler aren't a good mix. 











I have
worn out the good will of my partner. I have to get these numbers down and get
our household back to some semblance of normal. I have two sections of
isolation now because the new FeLV positives cannot mingle with the original
ones because they are not altered and either not vaccinated or incompletely
vaccinated. The new cats aren't completely vetted yet. 











Chili
and Salsa are in adoptable condition--they are FeLV positive but otherwise
healthy, vaccinated, and altered. They are dog-friendly. Adopting them out
frees up room in my home for the remaining cats, two of which are also FeLV
positive but not in adoptable condition. It will help me devote the same time
and effort i put in to the original litter to these new cats. These new cats
need more TLC because they came in sick, malnourished, and older and therefore
far less tame and willing to trust.











The
Marley Fund house is currently way overburdened due to a cruelty case they had
come through. Originally they were supposed to go there, but a real HOME would
be so much better. if anyone is looking to adopt, please please please let me
know. It would be best if they were adopted together as they are a bonded pair.
I know how near to impossible that is.

Dear Shiela, 

I am so very sorry, it literally breaks my
heart to hear what happened to Tip.
I cant stop crying  I so feel your pain very much  a
couple of years ago, I was looking for one of my feral cats that I had been
feeding for years, and she everyday would show up at the door step to wait for
me to feed her  one day, she did not show up, and the 2nd day
she did not show up, and I knew something was wrong then  I put flyers
everywhere, and one of my neighbors called me to tell me she had found her 
she was already dead for a couple of days  again, she was all wet from
the rain, too. The lady had put her in a trash bag and in her trash can. I asked her to give her back to me so
that I could bury her in my yard along with her friends and her little boy Henry  it
was devastating  roaming dogs killed her. That was the time when I was also
thinking about trapping her and keep her with me two days prior to the day she
started missing and I never had a chance to do so  



I am sorry, I did not make it about me 
but I just wanted to let you know that I know exactly how you feel  just
know that Tip is at a better place now, and he is even closer to you now in a
way  he is watching you, so dont be too sad, because it will make
him sad, too. and you will meet him again in another life
(I really believe that).



Hugs,



Hideyo

opening for felv+ baby male

Hi everyone-
Just thought I'd let you know that a client at my vet hospital has an opening 
for a young male felv+.
She is an excellent mom and has been adopting felv+ for as long as I can 
remember. Right now she has 4 girls (all young) and 1 adult male.  The male 
will only accept very young or baby cats, he likes to play foster daddy.  
Anyway she is looking for specifically a male because of the current ratio, and 
she hasn't had a baby boy in a while.  If anyone know of a felv+ in need of a 
home, prefferably in the Mass area let me know.  Thank you

Well, Ginger is definitely not eating as
much  I think she should be eating a bit more. And I began to worry. She liked liver shake I made for her and
she drank it and ate a bit more food.
I gave another shot of V-B complex (I dont have V-B 12) last
night. She ate a bit today again but she had a bad diarrhea last night 
again, I am not sure what to think of it either as she did not eat anything unusually.
She acts just fine  (thank god)  I made a
appointment for Friday morning  I hate to take her, but if she continues
not to eat, I should probably take her.


Has anyone experience this type of changes
in your kitties appetite?? 

Please continue to send Ginger a healing

I am almost positive that the shelter where I volunteer will have someone 
who fits the bill, as there are many positives there and it is the only shelter 
in the area that cares for positives. Your client already adopted one cat from 
the shelter so should have the contact info. I suppose she may already 
have checked. It's the Fund for Dogs and Cats in Pepperell MA, and the number is 
978-433-0404. I can talk to Terry, the woman who runs the shelter, when I

No, not necessarily. Sometimes it forms in and around the tissues of 
organs. It often can only be detected through an ultrasound. 
Intestinal lymphoma can cause lack of appetite and also diarrhea.

But it might not be lymphoma at all. A lot of FeLV+ cats have 
unexplained bouts of anemia and anorexia.

and the specialist thinks it's a kidney infection-so 6 weeks of antibiotics. the 
anaesthia also gave Hamish an appetite because he wolfed down can after can and 
even had food all over his big face which was very heartening for my sister who 
has been opening can after can and sour cream and yogurt and deli food etc to

Re: Tip is Gone

2005-02-23 Thread Skf95111
Dear Shiela:

I am so very sorry to hear that you lost your Tipper, tragically, before he 
could come back to you.  I, too, know how heartbreaking it is to find a beloved 
furkid who has gone missing and come to a tragic end.  

I know it is too late, now, for anything to bring Tipper back to you, but it 
IS possible for you to be able to talk to his spirit, even though he has 
crossed over, if that would help bring you some closure. That may sound like 
over-the-top crazy, but telepathic communication with animals is a very real 
phenomenon.  Since the communication is mental and between spirits, the 
limitations 
of being in a physical body is not necessary.

Had you ever considered trying to locate Tipper with the help of an animal 
communicator? You might want to keep that in mind for future reference. I wish 
that I had known about animal communication some years ago...it might have 
helped me find one of my furkids before the coyotes did.

I went to farm-sit for a friend's horses for a weekend and took my cat Ian 
with me...he always went wherever I did.  My friend's daughter was careless and 
left the back door to the house open while I was out at the stable with my 
friend being briefed on the care for the horses and when we came back to the 
house, Ian was nowhere to be found.  I spent the entire day and all that night 
looking and calling for him.  The farm was out in the boonies and surrounded by 
open space and sagebrush, which is coyote country, and I was scared to death 
for Ian's safety.  How I wish that I had known then it was possible to have 
been 
able to talk to him.  When I did find Ian in the wee hours of the second 
morning, he had perished...a coyote had grabbed him just in front of his tail 
and torn one hind leg away and broken his back, but his body was still warm and 
I could see that he had been trying, futilely, to drag himself back to me with 
just his front legs.  I sat down and bawled so loudly, I swear I must have 
sounded like a coyote howling.  I was absolutely devastated!

Since then, I have become enlightened to the phenomenon of telepathic 
communication with animals.  Finding lost critters is one of the biggest 
challenges 
for an AC...a critter cannot tell us where they are in the same way we 
would...they cannot give an address or exact location.  What they CAN do is 
communicate mental images of their surroundings and can usually tell the AC if 
they are 
relatatively close to home or farther away.  An AC can also usually tell you 
if your furkid is still in his/her body, or has already crossed over.

I've had two experiences more recently where an AC has been able to help me 
find my missing furkids very soon, before their lives were in jeopardy.  I 
would not wait a few days to see if they come home...when one of my furkids is 
missing, I immediately call an animal communicator to make sure they are still 
alive, that there is nothing to prevent them from finding their way home and 
how 
I can locate them.

On one occasion, it was summer and very hot and I had left the back door to 
the house open to cool the house off in the evening.  One of my furbabys had 
just been spayed 3 days prior and so of course I was being careful to make sure 
she stayed indoors and quiet.  But I had fallen asleep on the sofa watching 
the news on TV and when I woke up it was around 3AM and as I stumbled to the 
bedroom I noticed the door in the kitchen was open and being half awake and 
without thinking, closed the door and crawled in bed.  I never imagined that 
Angel 
(who was not a very brave kitty and did not go outside unless someone was with 
her) had gone outside on her own.  In the morning when it was time to feed 
everyone and Angel did not come scurrying for her breakfast, and a frantic 
search of her preferred spots to snuggle in the house was fruitless, my heart 
crashed to my feet.  I went outside and called and called and called, but no 
Angel. 
 I walked around the entire neighborhood many times, calling and knocking on 
doors.  I made flyers and posted them on fences and telephone poles.  And then 
I got on the phone to contact an animal communicator.

The one I usually called was at a conference and not available, but she got 
back to me and gave me several others for referral and I was finally able find 
one who could help me.  The AC said at first Angel did not answer her, and 
then did but was not being very communicative, but finally did talk to her.  
She 
said first of all Angel had been angry with me for taking her to be spayed 
without telling her anything about it, and then she was angry about being shut 
out of the house and she hid.  When she got over being angry, she discovered 
she 
did not know how to get back and was too afraid to try.  Angel was still in 
her body and not far away...she said.  Angel pictured herself in or under 
something she was not able to get out of.  I continued calling for her and 
looked 
in and under everything I could, but

YesI can relate..buying and preparing chicken and liver always
goes against the grain (pun not intended). But whatever kitty needs,
kitty gets, right!

Hey Michelle - I'm a vegetarian, was a vegan, I certainly feed my cats 
different from myself.  Weird, first time I went out to by liver.

RE: Ginger update2

Oh no.. now I am worried 
can one be really active and playful, but still develop lymphoma?? Is this something that I should get checked
out for Ginger separately? Or will it
show on the blood work?

No, not
necessarily. Sometimes it forms in and around the tissues of
organs. It often can only be detected through an ultrasound.
Intestinal lymphoma can cause lack of appetite and also diarrhea.











But it
might not be lymphoma at all. A lot of FeLV+ cats have unexplained bouts
of anemia and anorexia.
