THANK YOU, honey--i was hoping you'd jump in.
okay, here's the latest--she's found an er vet that she's worked with

Usually, a transfusion with un-typed blood can be done once, but there is a

around 99% in the US. As it is in people you need to match the blood
types. Because there is such a high prevelance of type A in the US, they do
