Nothing New Under The Sun
Hello,
What is that cough Buger has. It could be Whipworm, regular worms or coming from the new kitty litter. I guess iwill worm him for the Whipworm, but he is soooo small yet, however he has never been done for the Whip . . . you should wait until they are 3 months, but miss by one week and you have a dead kitty. We, here in the Erie/Crawford area, just went through an Anthrax mess - everything from horses to kitties were dropping dead, and everything in between. When i have time iwill give you the details, and tell you all about a lesson well learned . . . at least on my part . . . I had a lot of kitties drop because of the Anthrax and Whipworm coming at the same time, not knowing which was which, and who wouldhave guessed Anthrax anyway. I guess if youare in the business long enough, you eventually learn everything . . . The Vets were worthless . . . i even had one treating for an infected uterus, and all the Gumment could do was say, "duh" and pass you on to the next telephone No. I saw a precious, Tiffiny kitten (about 3 months old) die a horrible death from the Anthrax. The older kitties didnot seem to get it so bad, and i myself hardly got all that sick, but i was on the ball with meds. It did however linger, as itis a fungus, and i still often have burning and a little cough in my lungs. I often wonder about the hunters in that area, that ate what they shot. No one will ever know because such news getting out could ruin the tourist trade of hunters. Truly Kitties must be Father's favorite animal otherwish why are there so many happy kittens. ps: Someone said something about a cat bite on a tail . . . the resulting infection was Cat-Scratch-Fever, not "Wringworm" . . . betcha. Bactine works miracles after all else fails. |
