Re: meet_Jersey
Try asking your vet for some. My vet gives me syringes free. After awhile, when the rubber O-rings on the plunger-thing get hard and it's difficult to push, I just ask for a few more. Bonnie in WI www.elephants.com Stan, syringe feeding is not that difficult, and no, it does not require any prescription or even a trip to the vet, because you can buy everything you need online (though it may be easier just to get the syringes from the vet). Here is a great website that tells you step by step how to go about syringe feeding: http://www.assistfeed.com/FeedingTechniques.htm And here is another webpage from that same site that talks all about cats that don't eat, and gives you all the info and details you could ever need: http://www.assistfeed.com/FelineAnorexia.htm And, here is a website where you can order syringes for feeding Jersey (he's a very cute little guy, BTW): http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=3393Ntt=feeding%20syringeNtk=AllNtx=mode+matchallpartialNp=1N=2002Nty=1 Jennhttp://ucat.us/domesticcatlinks.html No virus found in this outgoing message.

Re: meet_Jersey
He is beautiful! Does he let his tongue stay out a bit like that a lot? My Santiago does that when he is being petted. Pets to Jersey.

To be honest, it is hard to get a professional vet without recs. The hospital I took Jersey was professional but they are very pessimistic and expensive also (I already paid there 400 for 2visits). Once Iget him successfuly on his back legs I will start looking for a professional in the FeLV. My zip codeis 43607 (Toledo,OH, Detroit, MI).So, if anybody knows a qualified vetin radius 100- 150miles, plase let me know. thanks again for the non- stopping assistance.

Re: meet_Jersey
Oh Stan, what a handsome fellow your Jersey is. I'm praying you and he find the help you need. There is an internet group for assisted feeding, (with syringes). Here's the link: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Feline-Assisted-Feeding/ Getting him to eat the baby food is good, any food is good right now, but baby food doesn't have all the good stuff he needs to stay strong, (like Taurine and maybe potassium if that is the problem with his back legs). If he won't eat on his own and you need to syringe feed him, (force feed him using a feeding syringe, (no needle), you can put vitamins and supplements in with his food to make sure he's getting the nutrition he needs. People use a syringe because they can load it up with food, (instead of medicine), and slowly get the cat to swallow it by plunging the food into his mouth. The folks on the assisted feeding group could help you with things like that. Give them a little history about you and what's going on with Jersey, tell them you've never done assisted feeding before and ask for their help. You really need a vet that will help you do what's best for Jersey. I'm afraid most vets are expensive though. You might as well find one that you trust to help you do whatever you need to for that handsome fellow of yours. I can "hear" how much you love Jersey. We're all praying for the two of you. Please let us know how you are doing. Nina stany petrov wrote: Hi all again, I just forgot that 2 months ago I put a picture of Jersey in a photography contest online.
