as you know we are having difficulty with the hotel and the number of cats
we have in this small place. one of the problems we had i had not revealed before because of waiting to find out if there was a problem with our six remaining cats. As many of you also know Tiger went to the bridge after our house fire. he was out for a day and never recovered from the stress of it all, along with the actual fire, he was terrified of all strangers and most men even if they were in his house. being out, having been chucked out by a stranger, being without me for an entre day with nofood stressed his sustem to the point that the before unknown feline lukemia activated in his system and he went downhill rapidly. The ER vet was so purplexed by Tigers rapid downhill progress that he went back to the clinic, ran the test at no charge to me and then when he got the results called us with the bad news. after some discussion with this vet and the regular one we decided to wait a while to test for fiv/flv so we would have a solid answer once and for all. if a cat is infected it can take up to and over thirty days for it to show positive and since no cats wer showing signs of it this is what we did. now with these living arrangement issues we had to make sure the cats were virus free so in case they have to be rehomed nobody else would be exposed. It turns out that none of the other cats are positive and that is a huge releif. now if things are such that i have to get someone to foster i can do it with assurance that all of my cats are healthy. Barbi has a stress related hot spot on her back which occurs from time to time. everone stayed the same or gained weight except for OEJ and Storrmee's sensitivity to having her tail touch seems to be related to the connecting joint at her body and tail and thankfully is not displasia. MH hurked up on the way to the vet, it doesn't matter to him if its five minutes or fifty minutes he seems to hurke when put in the van. Vet says if we have to bring him in and its not an emergency we can get a pill to calm this. other than the expense of it all, it was a pleaseant visit for us the humans, the cats, not so much |

Some good news, for a change. I still think about poor Tiger...if he hadn't gone through SO MUCH, after the fire, he might have been OK. What a tragedy for everyone. But, it could have been much worse. I keep saying that, but it doesn't help as much as it should. This whole situation with the hotel giving you all this trouble over your cats makes me very, very angry...but nothing I can say will help, so I have not said anything before, and I won't say anything now. I just hope you can find places to foster your cats. I am so very far away from you, unfortunately. Kenzie absolutely would NOT accept another cat...but Lorelei MIGHT. If I was close, I would be willing to try...but I'm not close. Your vet bill must have been very large, but there was no way to get around doing it. I feel guilty because I haven't taken Lorelei to the vet, yet. But she is still so skittish and scared, I hate to cause any stress for her. I read the entire post in meow chat, which is hard for me, BEFORE I read this one in people talk. I know that things WILL work out for you, and for your cats. There are so many good people who want to help....and so many like me, who WANT to help, and can't I just hope the stress hasn't been too hard on you. |

the anxietystress has been tremendous for both dh and myself, having to not
say anything about the real cause of tiger's passing just made it almost unbearable... i know things will get better and that is why i can keep going. the vet bill was close to six hundred dollars, but it ahd to be done. now if i do have to fster them i can prove they are healthy. knowing there are people out there who care and are concerned does a lot for my mental state, the hotel is just doing what every other business with employees does, politics is everywhere, Lee ingold1234[at]yahoo[dot]com (Gandalf) wrote in message ...
