He had a blood draw on July 2nd. We did hemobart, CBC, and a thyroid panel.
We started him on pred Thursday evening when we got the hemobart results an
Two weeks is a minimum, longer is probably better as long as he
seems to be doing OK. Stress is a big no no with these guys, that was
one of the reasons I didn't really give Bailey any supplements until he
got sick, he got so stressed when he had to take anything, pills ect ...
I was luck
I was thinking of going back in a bit over 2 weeks when she returns from
vacation. There's another vet in the office but I would prefer to see my
regular vet unless we run into problems.

Amy,
If the HCT was 29% on the July 2nd draw and he is acting the same I
would wait at least 2 weeks, stress is not good so you want to avoid
that. If he takes a sudden turn for the worse before 2 weeks then get
him to the vet. When did the vet want you to bring him in for a
recheck? I
Oops, forgot to answer that yes his last draw was the HCT of 29%.

PS. How long has he been on the Pet Tinic and how long has he been
getting the pred and doxy? When was the last time he had a blood draw?
On the last draw is that when his HCT was 29%? They can always take a
tiny bit of blood from the ear tip to check the HCT and if it is OK then
do the ful
Hi Amy,
Petinic doesn't contain folic acid which is also needed to build new
blood, Nutrived does ... most vets carry the Petinic and not the
Nutrived that is why they recommend it. If you can find the Nutrived I
would switch to it, I used to buy it online, I'll see if I can find it.
about taking any blood right now (til we see how he responds to the pred and
doxy treatment) because if he's not making more, I'm worried I'll make him
worse. Thoughts?

Hi Amy,
Sounds like a mystery but his HCT isn't too bad, it is when it gets
to 20% and below you really need to start worrying, although with an
FeLV+, I'd keep a close eye on it when it gets to 24% or 25%. My Vet
wouldn't start epogen until the HCT gets to 20% or below, and a

So we got the bloodwork back and Wolfie's thyroid screen (TF4/T3) was totally
normal. He's been losing weight steadily for the past 4 years and always acts
hungry. We also did a test for hemobart. They tested for three organisims and
one of them (can't remember all the names) came up positiv
