Have you tried colostrum? I'm a big believer in it...powder, mixes into soft food, buy at the feed/livestock stores. On Apr 4, 2011, at 1:11 PM, Mary Lou wrote: Okay guys we need your help big time.

Re: [Felvtalk] Abbey
An absolute MUST: CoQ10 - get the powdered version that is Vegetarian at GNC, or I've been told Whole Foods also carries the capsules in powder form. Open capsule, mix 1/2 of 100mg into food daily! Vitamin C would also help, and Echinacea drops would be great - in fact, it should be given to all FIV/FeLV+ cats to boost immune system. -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of Mary Lou Sent: Monday, April 04, 2011 2:12 PM To: Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: [Felvtalk] Abbey Okay guys we need your help big time.

Re: [Felvtalk] Abbey
Does vet think she might need antibiotics? I'd keep giving her soft of liquefied food--anything that she'll eat. Stuff she can lick up and not have to chew. -Original Message- From: felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org [mailto:felvtalk-boun...@felineleukemia.org] On Behalf Of Mary Lou Sent: Monday, April 04, 2011 2:12 PM To: Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: [Felvtalk] Abbey Okay guys we need your help big time.
