Bob, I met our cats through the shelter we volunteer at as well. We wanted
to adopt sooner but my dog blew out his CCL and needed surgery and to
recover first. Then we went to get Mo and they were under quarantine for
ringworm. By the time Mo made it back to the adoption room he was stressed
and sick and I feel terrible. Violet at least had a home once (her owner
passed away which bounced her back to the shelter) Mo has had nothing but
the shelter and illness. Giving a home to the "unadoptable" is a beautiful
and rewarding thing, I wish people would give these animals a chance too! I
hope your colony can recover from their illness, the cats on our FELV room
are all sweet as can be too. It always amazes me, the capacity animals have
to forgive us for their suffering.
How is Jelly? Have the meds helped at all? It's so hard to know what the
right thing is sometimes.

I know , all too well, what you are going through and hope to the power
of 10 that the meds help for mo as much as they have for others on the
list The more people out there recognize that FeLV is not always a
death sentence ( if one has a forward thinking vet) the more people
might be willing to adopt these lovely cats ( At the shelter where I
volunteer EACH of our FeLV cats is nice than the next) I am worried
about the Colony now because one of the Colony just died from Effusive
FIP and since all were raised together there is a high likelihood that
the others are still carrying the Corona Virus fingers crossed as to
whether is will develop into FIP in them So glad you have a vet
that will work with you and my hopes are SO with little mo who really
hasn't been given a fair shake until you guys came along. Thanks
for giving this deserving little guy a home EVEN if it's just for a
brief while.
