Re: CLS
Hi Tanya, Hubby is fine - thank goodness, it was just a medicine interaction - he sure scared me !! No my kitties didn't come from Georgia, I try to name the litters to match so we can keep them straight on who goes to who :) Their Mom is Savannah and so I named the kits all different counties, the only female is Marietta, I "used" to do genealogy and my family came from Georgia, and also from SC, NC, TN, TX ... Marietta is a county in GA that my "James" line came from. Anyway, I am hoping that Marietta, Athens and Atlanta make it, but I have my doubts because it seems that FIP is taking them one by one. Oh and their brother Rome is the only one who tested negative, he seems to be doing fine but I will have him re-tested in a few more weeks - he is separated from his siblings. Got to run - one of my kitties has a bad front leg and is going to the vets this morning to get it amputated, but I know it is for the best, we will keep him if he doesn't get adopted but 3 weeks ago we did adopt a 3 legged - some people love the special needs.

Sad News
Hi Everyone, I have somesad news to share. First, Mandy's biopsies are back and she has oral squamous cell carcinoma. The entire back of her tongue is involved. We are consulting a surgeon, but her prognosis is very poor, indeed. The surgery would be horrendous (possibly removing part of her jaw, too), followed by radiation therapy. Even with this extreme treatment, the recurrance rate for this kind of cancer is very high; I understand sometimes within just a couple of months. Mandy is a sweet little girl (Tater Tot's sister) who loves to come visit on her terms, but does not like being handled. Medicating her and syringe-feeding are nearly impossible.I'm not sure at this point what we will do or not do. Paulie, (the father of Mandy and Tater) is 7 years old and is in renal failure. He is feral and although I can capture him when I have to, I would need to keep him in his own room to get treatment. When he had the corneal ulcer, it was a much different story and we had a treatment plan and a projected outcome. For CRF, I can't see imposing that on him just to keep him a bit longer. He is eating again and seems a bit more like himself (won't let me pet him!) so we'll just see how he does. Cosmo has a dislocated ankle and according to the consulting radiologist, it cannot be splinted. He would need surgery to have the bones fused and he would then have a stiff leg that he couldn't bend at the wrist. I have to investigate this more, because we all agree that he is starting to put more weight on the leg and the bones may actually be fusing in this position which is not much different than it would be after surgery. Again, not sure how we will proceed for him. Hedoes not seem to be in any pain; you can move his leg every which-way and he does not make a peep or try to pull his paw away. He just obviously favors the leg. I'm just overwhelmed by all this. It's breaking my heart. Having so many cats, I knew that a day would likely come when I had several who were ill all at the same time, and that has certainly happened before. I've not faced or dealt with so many probably being terminal, though. I suppose one can never fully prepare for that emotionally.

Re: Sad News
Oh Julie, I'm so sorry to hear all of the bad news. I don't know if you are soliciting advice, but if so: Mandy: I don't think I would put her through that surgery. I think I would watch her closely, and when she begins to have trouble eating, or shows obvious signs of pain, I would euthanise her. It just sounds like it's not something that you can fix, and even trying to sounds like it would cause her more suffering than prolonging any good times. Paulie: I would just let he be himself. It is likely, with him being feral, that some day he might just not show up for his feeding, and will go off under some house or bush to die, but I think trying to prolong his life would cause him much stress, and only buy him a few months, if he is in failure. Cosmo: Hard to say what to do, but if he is not in any pain, I see no reason to put him through surgery. I know your radiologist said it couldn't be splinted, but handicapped pets is JUST about to release a NEW improved splint for pets, and maybe the new design could work in this case where the old way wont help. From their September newsletter: "Orthopedic knee, hock, and wrist braces: I know that several people are waiting for our braces. Were 'almost there.' We're completing our final research on the product and will be putting up the site, we expect, within a few weeks. We just need to make sure they're right."

Re: Sad News
Thank you, Jenn for all your kind words and for those great links; I will be sure to get the information to my vet. It helps to have loving people who are of the same mind confirm what you know somewhere deep inside to be the best course of action. Given the prognosis for Mandy, I don't think I can put her through the surgery. I lost my Lucky to mammary cancer earlier this year and she had a pretty good prognosis; after the surgery they felt she had about 6-12 months of good life. The cancer hadn't spread to her lungs or any vital organs; in less than 2 months, she was filled with cancer. I can't terrorize Paulie just to keep him with me a bit longer.

Re: Sad News
Hi Julie, I am sorry to hear about your kitties...I do understand as I have several on meds at this time and it can be overwhelming that's for sure... I wanted to let you know that I had a kitty several yrs ago with an in-operable tumor on the back of her tongue...We put her on 20mg. of pred a day for the inflammation as she could not be force feed or medicated...I would hide the pills in her food and she would eat them..I think she had so much steroid that her appetite was always great..She lived another 3 yrs with this tumor...It was awful looking, too...She would sometimes choke and have a difficult time eating..as we did get some of the inflammation down she would even eat some dry food at times...It seems as if she just learned to cope with it the best way she could...She wasn't FeLV+ though so if your kitty is, I don't know about all the pred..I know the steroids are awful to use, but I guess sometimes we have to use them...

Re: Sad News
Holy cow, Julie, you are dealing with a lot. I recently went through something like this with multiple animal illnesses and losses, and I know that it is barely survivable. Hang in there. I have no idea why these things happen in groups and at first I thought it was just me and my family, but I have been hearing it a lot lately. It is really weird. All I can say is take a hot bath every once in while, get a massage if you can afford it (unlikely given all the vet bills, but if you can spare $35 for a half hour massage it can really help with the stress), and try to get some sleep while you can. That's about all I can say. And pray, even if you are not religious. I can't explain it but it helps. Love, Michelle

First, Mandy's biopsies are back and she has oral squamous cell carcinoma. The entire back of her tongue is involved. We are consulting a surgeon, but her prognosis is very poor, indeed. The surgery would be horrendous (possibly removing part of her jaw, too), followed by radiation therapy. Even with this extreme treatment, the recurrance rate for this kind of cancer is very high; I understand sometimes within just a couple of months. Mandy is a sweet little girl (Tater Tot's sister) who loves to come visit on her terms, but does not like being handled.

He is feral and although I can capture him when I have to, I would need to keep him in his own room to get treatment. When he had the corneal ulcer, it was a much different story and we had a treatment plan and a projected outcome. For CRF, I can't see imposing that on him just to keep him a bit longer. He is eating again and seems a bit more like himself (won't let me pet him!) so we'll just see how he does. Cosmo has a dislocated ankle and according to the consulting radiologist, it cannot be splinted. He would need surgery to have the bones fused and he would then have a stiff leg that he couldn't bend at the wrist. I have to investigate this more, because we all agree that he is starting to put more weight on the leg and the bones may actually be fusing in this position which is not much different than it would be after surgery. Again, not sure how we will proceed for him. Hedoes not seem to be in any pain; you can move his leg every which-way and he does not make a peep or try to pull his paw away. He just obviously favors the leg. I'm just overwhelmed by all this. It's breaking my heart.

Fwd: Re: Oklahoma City - 4 sweet leukemia kitties in a desperate situation
Hey guys - we'd like to take only 2 of these 4 kitties here in Little Rock - she's desperate in Oklahoma City, and I'm looking for anyone open to taking an FELV kitty into their home - Thanks Gloria Date: Tue, 6 Sep 2005 12:32:23 -0500 (Central Daylight Time) From: Jennifer Dennis [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Oklahoma City - 4 sweet leukemia kitties in a desperate situation X-FID: BA285063-5BCE-11D4-AF8D-0050DAC67E11 Dear Gloria, I was just wondering if you and Susan might still be interested in adopting any of my leukemia kitties. I got an email from Best Friends in Kanab, Utah, and I sent them additional info and pictures but I never heard back from them. We are starting to get very desperate. I just can't put these kitties to sleep, but I am out of time and out of other options. I am trying to buy time, but my electricity is due to be shut off now and I am having trouble affording food for these kitties. My daughter needs special formula which costs about $7.50 per day (almost enough money for an 18 lb bag of Meow Mix...) plus she needs medications and we are having to pay 100% because my husband makes $1500 too much per year to qualify for Medicaid and his employer does not offer health insurance. We are really in a bad situation. I know the timing of this is terrible too, it almost leaves these cats with no hope of being saved because of all of the poor animals displaced by Katrina, who are also in desperate need of a place to go. I hope you can help. Please let me know if you can. My husband is planning to take them to be put to sleep or else take them to the pound this coming weekend if I don't place them. I will bring them to you if you can take them.

I worked as a vet tech in Oklahoma City for 6 years. During that time, I saw a lot of animals put to sleep that could have lived long, healthy lives. I could not bear to see these 4 sweet leukemia cats be put to death who were not sick, they just tested positive for leukemia. So, I took them home with me to keep them from being euthanized. I also have other cats who are not leukemia positive. I gave these leukemia cats a large bedroom where they have been living for the past couple of years. The problem I have now was totally unavoidable and unplanned. I became pregnant with quadruplets, and I had enormous problems throughout the pregnancy. I was hospitalized for 77 days, I went into labor starting at 18 weeks. My 4 beautiful daughters were born incredibly premature, and 3 of them died. I have one surviving daughter who is on oxygen and suffers from respiratory distress syndrome, she also has bronchio-pulmonary disease and requires a heart monitor 24 hours a day, and she also has partial liver failure and brittle bones. She spent 3 months in the hospital, too, and has recently been released. I lost my job during all of this, and I cannot go back to work because she cannot go to daycare with her medical problems. We are now losing our house. I have found places for all of my cats to go except the leukemia cats, and I cannot take them with me to the inlaws' house. I have not had any luck in finding a place for these sweet leukemia cats to go. I cannot allow them to be put to sleep. I think it is just wrong. I love these cats very much and they deserve to go to a place where they will be loved and not put to death. If anyone can help these kitties, please let me know as soon as possible. We do not have the money to stay in this house and we are quickly running out of time and options. (We are in Oklahoma City.)
