Hi Tonya Mt thought exactly...With all the stress of being moved and a 1500 mile transport ahead of them...

Re: Current FELV and FIV cats up for euthansia - could these be yours?
transporting FeLVs, even sick ones, IS possible--we moved 19 from Texas to Michigan two years ago, losing only one: she was very very ill, but when i asked her if she wanted to come with us or stay in the safe place she was in, she made it very clear that she wanted to make the journey. i will never be able to explain the experience with her--she had just met me, and was clearly close to death, but when i talked with her she perked up and purred. she spent the first night on the road with me, at our Gloria's house, where we both loved and cared for her, and spent the last few hours on this earth under my shirt, close to my heart, gazing up at me with a look that no creature, of any species, has EVER given me. we didn't know her name at that time (the records were packed away), so we called her, "Bliss," because that was what showed on her face. i have never seen such trust and love before, or since, and carry that blessing with me still. when she was ready to journey on, we stopped at a rest area and let her complete her passage on a blanket laid on the grass in the sun... we had 29 cats total on that trip, and we were racing tornadoes the whole trip north--i would have liked the luxury of stopping more often i'm talking with folks here in michigan who've done the trip to angel wings numerous times--they don't have the time off from work they used to, but we're trying to see if there's anyway to juggle it--they'd need help with gas money, maybe overnight places to stay. (jenn, this is n and g, who've been in touch with you/TN folks) it'd be easier if someone could make part of the trip north--as close to baltimore as possible, to cut off some of the triangle between detroit/TN/NY.. -- MaryChristine AIM / YAHOO: TenHouseCats MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 289856892

I'm recommending saving the dilute calico, sounds like she just needs rehydrated and fed. I'm also demanding they save the black DSH, because I may know his owner, so he will be held til I can get picture tomorrow. I'm up in the air about the buff guy with open pressure sores, and all that mess, he sounds like he is suffering, should I give the OK to euthanise him guys? I have no say over the FIV cats, as I don't have fosters for them, so if they sound like they could be one you are seeking, let me know ASAP, before they euthanise them! I have the records for the 3 FeLV cats: I will just list what is abnormal. Please let me know what you think. I can get pictures and send them to you if you need them tomorrow.

Current FELV and FIV cats up for euthansia - could these be yours?
This is the list of cats that the vets are holding JUST FOR ME, and would overwise already be DEAD. I need opinions people, do these sound treatable, and should we try to get them transported? Tad? Do you have the time to nurse open sores and that type of severe injury? I'm recommending saving the dilute calico, sounds like she just needs rehydrated and fed.
