Meet Mr. Stubbs
Mr. Stubbs is a very friendly FELV+ kitty who came to us from
an animal control in SC. They are trying to become a low kill
shelter but with kitten season in full swing they were euthanizing
any cat that they deemed is not adoptable. FELV+ cats
are always at the top of the list to be euthanized.
He purrs in thanks to you for your support making it possible to save
his life!
Meet Jerry
Jerry is another FELV+ kitty who came to us from the
same shelter as Mr. Stubbs. He was at the top of the list
to be euthanized and needed a place to go.
You may watch him live 24/hours a day on his
MeShare camera.
You may watch him 24/7 on his MeShare camera.
Cat UpDate
It has been a difficult week. Paul & Atticus
both went to the vet for losing weight. Full blood work,
x-rays and ultra-sound showed some devastating news.
Atticus showed a huge mass on his heart (the vet had
seen the mass on the X-ray heard a murmur that
concerned her. The ultra sound was to confirm what
she was seeing. It confirmed the mass and fluid in his
chest. She felt he would have a week at best.
Yesterday 7/3/16 he began showing difficulty breathing
and he was returned to his maker. He was only here
for a short time but made a big impression on all
that knew him.
Paul
Paul has lost a lot of weight. His blood work and x-rays
are actually pretty normal. His ultrasound shows
a lot of changes in his intestines and some other
organs. The vet feels we are either dealing with
irritable bowel disease or lymphoma.
We are treating him with medication for the lymphoma.
He needs your prayers.

Treating an individual cat for multiple days is not easy, and it's
nearly impossible to do effectively in a cat colony! The feral cat
colony is a herd, and cats are very social with each other.
Therefore, when one cat has an infection or parasite, the rest
have been exposed to it. This is true for ear mites, mange, lice,
intestinal parasites and respiratory infections! Some or most cats
cannot be handled, and medicating only the individual and leaving
the herd untreated won't be effective because the issue will return.
Success is achieved by effectively treating all of the cats through
their diet and getting all to take the medication.
Worms and worming your cat
The most common intestinal worms cats get are called roundworms
and tapeworms.
Most infected cats do not show signs of having worms; however,
heavy burdens of worms can cause weight loss, vomiting and
diarrhea, irritation around the anus and failure to thrive.
Importantly, while worms can sometimes cause problems for the
cat itself, some worms can also be passed on to humans and on
rare occasions can be a cause of serious human disease. For
these reasons, regular treatment of cats and kittens to prevent
or eliminate worms is very important.
