Hi Marissa and Everyone,Pippin has started eating the Innova wet food again, but not with the interest she showed before. She is 4 1/2 months old and weighs 4.6 pounds. Does anyone know what the growth rate should be for kittens her age? I tried to look online but I couldn't find a growth chart. She's going in for a well kitty check this Friday, so I can ask the vet, but I just wondered if anyone on the list knows.I have a question about her second FeLV test. Which test am I supposed to ask for and what else do I need to know about the lab it goes to, etc.?Thanks!GinaMarissa Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I feed Slinky Innova Evo wet and dry too. It took me a while to get him really interested in the canned, and I did have to take away the dry
 when I gave it to him. Then I just went away for a few days and had to leave the dry in an automatic feeder and have my coworker who was coming to take care of him give him twice as much canned in a serving because she could only come once a day. I was really worried that he wouldn't eat ANY of the canned. In order to try to entice him, I mixed in some freeze-dried chicken chunks I bought as a treat (called "Live-a-littles"). They actually crumble and become kinnd of a powder that I mixed into the food. He couldn't resist it then!Now I'll have to ween him off of that, but...it got h im eating it! You might want to try that. I get the live-a-littles at my natural pet food store. They might have them at Whole Foods  or you could try online (www.petfooddirect.com seems to have a pretty good selection). They also make
 flakes and treats that you can sprinkle on food as a way to get them to eat.Just a suggestion. Good luck getting him to eat!!MJGina WN [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Hi Wendy,I've been offering her the dry foodas a supplement to the wet food (as was recommended by my vet) for about two months. She never turned her nose up at wet food before. She was on Science Diet(wet and also dry seperately). When I transitioned her over to Innova (wet)she loved it and would eat her fill. Now she just paws at the ground by the food bowl like she's covering  up her "business"! Her dry foodis a mixture of the Science Diet and Innova Evo dry. I am going to buy another bag of
 Evo and mix it in, as I think she likes the Evo dry and her system is okay with the change over from Science Diet now.At any rate, I am going to call the vet tomorrow for a check-up just in case, and go to my local feed store to buy some different cans to try.Gina.  wendy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  Hey Gina,What do you think made her start turning her nose upat the wet Innova?

Ginawendy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: Hey Gina,  I am not sure how much is too  much lysine, but from what I've read, if kitty is asymptomatic, then 250 mg. per day is good for
 maintenance. If kitty has symptoms or is ill, then 500 mg. per day is not too much. That's what I gave Smookie when she had a corneal ulcer. If she tests negative on the second FeLV test, then I don't see the need to boost her immune system, unless the test is wrong. I have a kitty with feline herpes and I don't give her lysine unless she has symptoms. Some people do though. It just depends on the person and their philosophy. It is good for them, so doing it for maintenance or for symptoms, either way is fine. I am not sure how much lysine is too much. I think some people even give 1000 mg. per day or more depending on how sick kitty is. You should research this more though. You can find info. on the web.

There is nothing wrong with your letter. I 
have first hand knowledge of one woman who cut a hole in a cat's throat, drained 
the blood into a chalice and drank it. The cat lived by the way. 
Feeding live cats and small dogs to fighting animals is a well established 
practice--it gets the animals to taste blood.I've heard the kittens for 
snake food stories from very reliable sources who named names. The belief 
among these people is that there is no real difference between a live kitten and 
a live mouse/bird etc. Most animal "rescue" organizations refuse to adopt 
out black cats and sometimes any solid cat near Halloween. People don't 
realize the dangers and most are going to be grateful for the information. 
Some may ignore it but at least they have the knowledge.

I think it's very telling that you have sent this letter out often and only received negative replies twice. It's very similar to twenty people telling you they liked your presentation and one person saying they didn't - you dismiss the twenty and dwell on the one (I do anyway).

Okay, for what it's worth, here's my 2 cents... What Belinda is trying
to convey with this letter needs to be said. I don't think the way she
said it was rude, but it is a harsh light of reality that most people,
(as Diane points out), are completely ignorant of. I think the fellow
that wrote back to Belinda has other issues that don't involve finding
his cat a home, he obviously has a chip on his shoulder that Belinda
didn't put there. My only suggestion is to tone down the graphic
content of the letter. I'm remembering the letters that the ASPCA used
to send out. The ones with the pitiful pictures of abused and
neglected animals on the envelopes. I never opened them, I put them
quickly into the trash with my eyes closed. I always felt guilty not
being able to look at the images, not being strong enough to read about
their plight. Maybe it's because I've seen those faces first hand,
maybe I'm more faint of heart than most, but it wasn't until they
changed their tactics and started putting the "after" shots on the
cover of their request for contributions that I opened them and sent
what money I could. If we're going to reach the people that are open
to listening to the message, we have to do it in a way they can hear.
We have to be diplomatic and assume they have some feeling for the
animals they are looking to place and they just aren't aware of the
dangers that lurk out there. It's an opportunity to educate, but first
we have to figure out a way to get them to listen.

Title: Message




I'm so 
sorry, Karen, to hear the sad news about little Angel.
I'm 
just glad that he knew what it was to be loved in his short life. And, I'm also 
glad, that if he had to leave you, he did so at home, 
peacefully.
(All 
mine have passed by euthanization in the clinical, strange and stressful 
surroundings of emergency clinic, by a vet we didn't know. I would have much 
preferred we said goodbye at home.)
Thank 
you for loving and caring for Angel.He knew he was loved, and that's more 
important than anything.
hugs,Kerry

 drafted letter which I'm 
 copying below with the reply I got from the person I
 sent it to.  Please 
 tell me if my letter is rude because that obviously
 isn't my intention

 dangerous it is to post a pet for FREE.  My letter
 follow below:
 
 
  Hi Kathy,
  Belinda here, I admin the ads, and there are no
 Free To Good Home 
  ads allowed, none is the same as FREE. This is
 very dangerous for the 
  cat, there are all kinds of lunatics out there.
 
  I don't think you want Tiger to end up being
 ripped to shreds by a Pit 
  Bull in training to fight, or to spend his last
 few minutes on earth 
  petrified while a snake squeezes the life out of
 him and devours him. 
  Or maybe a sick, demented person who scours ads
 daily looking for an 
  animal to torture and beat until they tire of them
 and finally put 
  them out of their misery by killing them. Then
 there's the buncher who 
  looks for free or cheap pets to take to labs where
 they are 
  experimented on and then killed when they have
 served their purpose, 
  these bunchers get anywhere from $30 to $100
 dollars a pet from these 
  labs.
 
  Giving an animal away FREE is very dangerous for
 that animal and I 
  personally would rather euthanise a pet than take
 a chance that they 
  could end up in some horrible situation like those
 I described.
 
  I get emails every single day about some poor pet
 that has endured 
  horrible things until they finally died or were
 killed. I have even 
  been told by some of my rescues how a whole family
 will come to look 
  at an adoptee making them appear quite normal,
 only to find out later 
  the pet was tortured again and again until it
 finally died or was 
  killed. Please, please be very, very careful who
 you hand Tiger over 
  to, he is depending on you to make sure he is safe
 when he goes to his 
  new home!! Thank you.
 
  I'm not saying this to be mean, believe me I know
 these kinds of 
  things happen a hundred times a day to innocent
 animals. I've changed 
  your ad to negotiable.
 
  Please read these links for more info about how
 dangerous this is for 
  the cat:

  I belong to a group of people who are all owned by
 FeLV+/FIV, most if 
  not all have other cats who are negative. Some let
 their cats mix some 
  don't, it's a personal preference thing.
 
  I personally had 6 cats, my Bailey was my FeLV
 positive, he was + at 5 
  months of age. I just lost him last month to
 anemia at 11 years of 
  age, he wasn't sick for all of those years. I just
 lost him in May 
  after a 5 month illness to what turned out to be
 cancer. He lived, 
  ate, slept, played with, groomed and on occasion
 had spats with all 
  his vaccinated, negative housemates for all those
 years and nobody 
  ever got it from him. It is almost impossible for
 a healthy, adult cat 
  to get it from a positive and if they ever did the
 healthy adult cats 
  immune system would fight it off.
 
  The bottom line is it isn't as contagious as most
 vets would have you 
  believe. AND FIV is even less contagious and
 harder to give to another 
  cat as it takes a deep bite wound to for it to be
 even possible to 
  transmit it from one cat to another.

   Wendy,
  Unfortunately people need to know these things DO happen, most people 
have no idea that all of these things occur on a daily basis (I know 
this for a fact because I was one of them not too long ago).  Candy 
coating or not talking about doesn't make it go away.  I can't just omit 
it and tell people they can't put free because I say so, they have to 
know there are real reasons for it otherwise they just think I'm stupid 
and I would be doing the animals posted a disservice.


Toning down may work but I won't white wash it, any suggestions on 
toning it down but still get the point across??

assets to speak of but are assigning a portion of our life insurance to
the pet trust fund. The most difficult thing was identifying a person
who would mange the care for them in the fashion we wanted. The trust
will pay a monthly stipend to the caretaker for their care and will be
dispensed either to the caretaker or an assigned charity upon the death
of the last of them.

Re: OT: Need feedback please

Hey Belinda,

I agree that people need to know that horrible things
do happen, but I think you can say a lot without being
specific.  You don't want to turn people off to the
service that you are offering them/their animals.  I
have some ideas for toning it down, but let me get
back to you in the am when I have more time to think. 
Have a great night.  

:)

 Wendy,
Unfortunately people need to know these things DO
 happen, most people 
 have no idea that all of these things occur on a
 daily basis (I know 
 this for a fact because I was one of them not too
 long ago).  Candy 
 coating or not talking about doesn't make it go
 away.  I can't just omit 
 it and tell people they can't put free because I say
 so, they have to 
 know there are real reasons for it otherwise they
 just think I'm stupid 
 and I would be doing the animals posted a
 disservice.
 
 Toning down may work but I won't white wash it, any
 suggestions on 
 toning it down but still get the point across??

To Karen and Angel

2006-08-30 Thread wendy
Karen,

I am so sorry to hear that Angel has passed on.  I
can't believe it was so sudden.  Just three days since
you noticed her hip.  I am sorry I did not get to
encourage you earlier; I just read your posts today. 
And I feel badly I did not get to pray for little
Angel; she sounded like such a sweetie.  You were SO
good to her, and she will always be with you.  You
will carry her in your heart.  I get emotional
thinking about what it feels like to lose a beloved
furbaby.  Take care of yourself over the next few
weeks Karen while you grieve for Angel, and allow
yourself to grieve.  So many of us don't.  If you need
anything, or just to vent, we are here.

Wendy

My husband and I both have life insurance through our employers. I don't know if that option is available to us, but Iwill look into it.Any more suggestions anyone?Thanks,  Gina  Evan  Dee [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  We just met with our attorney tonight to draw up wills and establish a trust for our animal family.-it was easier than we thought. We have no assets to speak of but are assigning a portion of our life insurance to the pet trust fund. The most difficult thing was identifying a person who would mange the care for them in the fashion we wanted. The trust will pay a monthly stipend to the caretaker for their care and will be dispensed either to the caretaker or an assigned charity upon the death of the last of
 them. Evan  DeeGina WN wrote:   Awww, poor oldguy! I know animals are abandoned all the time, but it breaks my heart to think how he must have felt going from the comfort and security ofhis hometo finding himself without his person(s), just a throw-a-way on the street.That makes me realize even more so how important it is to try to make arrangements for our pets before we die. It's not always possible however and wishes aren't always carried out. But, I have made informal arrangements with friends to take care of our animals initiallyifmy husband and Iboth die at the same time or are incapacitated. And we are going to ask my husband's sister if she would take one or two cats (we have four). I
 would wantmy family and friendsto know about any no-kill shelters in my area so if they didn't want my cats they could at least take them there.Does anyone have any suggestions? We wouldn't be able to provide a trust at this time; it just isn't a financial option right now.Gina  [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:  Geez, now that is sad this poor guy couldn't live with a family member.What I know of that rescue he will be safe.In a message dated 8/30/2006 4:46:59 AM Pacific Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:  I was wondering about you Tator..

I just saw her picture. She was a precious baby. Again, I am so sorry she went to the Bridge.Ginakandbz_ mom [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Thanks everyone for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.

I am just so heartbroken as I had only had her for less than two months and she was only 5 months old. She seemed to be doing so good and then over the weekend, took a turn for the worse.
