[Felvtalk] Undesirable or just plain ugly cats

Hey Lee, You gave me a much needed laugh this morning, with your cat names. Among my crew is a "Fat Bastard" who has been with us for 8 years now. The thanks I get for rescuing him is getting bitten when I try to even briefly pet him. He is a miserable cat who bolts his food and then shoves his

Sounds more like you should find the little tub a restaurant home. Yeah. I have several aggressive eaters in my feline family. I especially love when they suddenly get and itch while walking with me to the food and plunk their tubby rears down in front of me to dig a back foot into their ear, ca

Yep. We loves 'em cuz they're there. Hemi hisses at me when I come around a corner too fast & startle her. Princess eats and sleeps all day. Will is afraid of his shadow. But as they are all "rehabilitated ferals" I figure, Who Knows what trouble they've seen. And I feel better seeing Hemi sl

[Felvtalk] IFA/PCR and question about missing emails

Hi, Thanks for the replies to my initial question. Lots of good insight regarding testing. I didn't realize about the PCR's showing regressive infection, thanks Lance. Does that mean same as latent? I just have one positive cat, so the test expense is something I would spring for if it might

After the long discussion that I just got on testing, I am really confused and concerned.  I have a group of 6---one senior and the others a year old.  It was suspected that they were exposed to a cat with feline leukemia so I had them tested.  All but the one year old female tested positive on

We had a kitty that showed up in the backyard a few years back so we trapped her and had her fixed and vaccinated and named her SuzieQ. Soon a male showed up so we got him all fixed up. Well, SuzieQ became more and more friendly but we didn't want to leave Charlie outside alone and they were

My Annie was never positive until her owner went into hospice and she ws locked up in her trailer for 3 weeks, not knowing where Kathy was and only Kathy's sister coming in, changing the box and giving fresh water and food, no interaction. Then when I said I would take her (Kathy said if no goo

OULD YOU CONSIDER USING A TONIC THAT IS NOT MAINSTREAM MEDICATION? I AM IN A CANCER GROUP that has a tonic that works for so many things. It does not cost much and there are not big research programs for it because it is not something big companies can own (herbs) and make huge profits from.

AS to weight, my Harley weighs only 14 lbs according to the vet, but when I pick him up, I would swear he weighs at least 30. My Casey has an eating problem, she wants to eat constantly. I just ignore her when she starts pawing at me for treats. Lee Evans wrote: > Sounds more like you
