Re: article on releasing /not testing for felk in feral cats
Why don't they just give all the cats who are not FeLV+ shots against it. Wouldn't they be able to get a good price from the med people? (I hope.) Jesus! To euthanize those cats is a crime! I don't like that director much. Not to immunize them against it means that mothers will catch it and give it to their newborns. Otherwise they won't. Stupid and thoughtless. stupid!

Same here...we have a large group here that sends kitties to a hospice but do not euthanize. Felv+ and Fiv+ (no confirmatory tests) are mixed togetherdrives me nuts. Some are asymptomatic. However, no other group offers free TNR surgeries so they do a lot for controlling the populationif not for them, the cats won't be fixed otherwise and will indeed be suffering. http://thebestlittlecathouseinpa.com/Dome.htm > Date: Wed, 9 May 2007 08:36:22 -0500> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: > felvtalk@felineleukemia.org> Subject: Re: article on releasing /not testing > for felk in feral cats> > Scream!> > Shadowcats here is one.

Re: article on releasing /not testing for felk in feral cats
Scream! Shadowcats here is one. They are also the best known feral group in our area by far...which means when they teach TNR to people..they teach it is *unethical* to not kill asymptomatic FELV+ cats... Although they do not euth for FIV and may not even test for it. They *do* euth asymptomatic FELV+ cats. I have had this argument with their director many times...she doesn't like me much..*sigh* www.shadowcats.net On 5/8/07, MaryChristine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: yep, but there are still "TNR" groups that not only test, but routinely euth positive cats with FeLV OR FIV...

yep, but there are still "TNR" groups that not only test, but routinely euth positive cats with FeLV OR FIV...
