Kerry,
I'm so glad to hear that a positive kitty is getting Epogen and it
seems to be helping, I will use your bandy as an example when I get the
it won't help from so many who refuse to even give it a try

Hi Lisa, Love that name Cloud too - just wondering, does Cloud have
Lymphoma, Anemia, or what? I had two die of lymphoma. One, I think,
Mittens, became anemic in the process and possibly died from that, before I
could get a handle on it and get him to the vet.

Lisa,
I can't say for sure, but I suspect you need a different vet. You
haven't told us much about Cloud, except that she's lethargic and that
she's dieing of Felv. They don't die of feline leukemia they die
because they are susceptible to other ailments and can't fight them off

Lisa,
There is always something that can be done for anemia, though it sometimes works and sometimes does not. But it depends on what is causing the anemia. You have to get Cloud toa different vet-- hopefully a board-certified internist at a hospital or university or big clinic or veterinary
The vet said he is very anemic, no energy, does not want to eat at all
today.Do you know of anything that can be done for anemia, the vet says
nothing can be done? Thanking you for your help...Lisa
Number one get a new vet, what tests has Cloud had? What kind of anemia does
Cloud have,
Lisa, that "diagnosis" does not make any sense. Unless they meant she is killing her own red blood cells, in which case she needs steroids fast (dexamethasone and depomedrol). You need to get her to an internist and also you need to syringe feed her some food. Cats can die from fatty liver
Hooray! Michelle's here! Lisa, listen to Michelle, she knows what she
is talking about. You need to get Cloud to a vet that will help you.
It sounds like tests were run and that (from your description), Cloud is
battling an auto-immune problem. Your regular vet has given up too
easily.
I'm not sure I was clear here. Lisa, if I were you, I'd call my regular
vet that has seen Cloud and read them Michelle's email and ask them
about the Dox and the steroid shots. Since they are already involved in
Cloud's care, (you still need the Internist), they can prescribe
quicker, you
