Nope--good ol' Nebraska! But, now that I know it's a Nigerian scam, it makes sense. My sis in law had this happen--someone from Britain (supposedly--or somewhere in Europe) got in touch with her to buy their house--said he was moving here as a doctor, but was sending someone to inspect the house.

This is true, one size doesn't fit all, (even though most of us feed that way). I was just thinking about that when I posted to the list with my turkey recipe. Gypsy needs the pure bran and pumpkin in her diet, but other kitties might not. You have to be careful about the calc/phos ratio

Tomi and Kisa are both about 2.5 years old. I found them when they were approximately 2-3 months old. They were both diagnosed with FeLV five weeks ago. My guess is that one of them had the virus before we took them in, and gave it to the other one since they spend so much time together.
