Cassandra My vet thinks that many of the health problems that both cats and dogs are facing is the result of over vaccination. I would not vaccinate such young cats, and I would research the Felk vaccine before I would ever consider it for basically indoor cats. The Felk vaccination is still co

Thanks for the information Laurie and Sally. I thought I would try it when the Maitake DMG runs out. My vet thought using both was redundant. Jane On Jul 23, 2007, at 8:52 PM, Sally Davis wrote: Hi Jane   I use the human form of Transfer Factor. Originally I got 4 life Tran

I cannot find the post, but I thought someone on the list said that they used the human Transfer Factor for their cat, rather than the feline formula. Is it a powder that is mixed into wet food? If the human grade is used, what quantity? Thanks Jane

Great job getting the information, guys While we're at it, we might ask CNN to loose the vile footage of dog fights. I saw and heard two seconds of it before I could grab the remote. It is so heartbreaking and they are clearly showing it for the sensational aspects. Also, they have a video on

Several weeks ago, after I got the Felv diagnosis, I had to stop letting MeMe go out. She was miserable and I was sure that the stress of screaming at the door handle was going to do the both of us in. I asked the list for help with enclosures and got a lot of great suggestions and photographs

Laurie be careful with the Brewers yeast. One of my Scotties developed itchy, bright red ears, as a result of an allergic reaction to it. The minute my vet saw her she asked if I had been using Brewer's yeast. Cats may react differently, but 'heads up'. Jane On Jul 12, 2007, at 2:52 PM, Maryly
