Hi Michael, The problem is that Google maps says it is 1,796 miles and probably at least 1,000 of that is before they get to Nevada. That's why I was looking for someone experienced in setting up transports, which I am not. I have someone to drive the first out of what, 18-30ish legs? I haven't heard from the adopter since all the excitement of getting them rescued from the shelter (literally HOURS before death) so she may have found another option. Pilots and Paws is good for short trips (300 miles or so) and we have a wonderful paid transport company in Austin (they went and got 2 of our cats after the adopters had a baby and decided the baby was allergic - in New York State). They are not cheap but do sometimes offer cheaper rates for rescue if they are going that way anyway.

Re: [Felvtalk] Leona Jean Yahmuna
Just an addendum -- don't get the stuff that's formulated for humans, there are unhealthy-for-cats additives. Get the pure stuff from a health food/supplement store. Best of luck with Leona Jean. Diane R. -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of katskat1 Sent: Sunday, February 20, 2011 8:57 PM To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: Re: [Felvtalk] Leona Jean Yahmuna Megan, I am in Ohio so can't help you that way but would strongly recommend you get Leona Jean on L-Lysine. I cannot tell you exactly what it is or how it does what it appears to do but I am sure some of the others can fill you in. I have two cats that are FIV positive and have had them on L-Lysine for well over a year. After a few weeks any recurrence of their upper respiratory symptoms was negligible and neither of them has had a recurrence at all in many months. Both are fat and sassy, with clear eyes and noses. No sneezing, rattling, etc. It apparently helps bolster their immune system and while I in no way think it is a miracle or the end-all for this nasty disease, I think it is of great value. Go on line and look for it or go to a local health food store. If your cat is picky or hard to pill or medicate I suggest the soft treats. A bit more expensive but great for fickle cats. My two will fight over the things and come running when I rattle the container they are in.
