 | |  | | I'm late getting around to posting my/our stories. I've been busy getting the Friends of the Blind Cat Rescue Group organized and active. But we're back now!
Bo is our first FeLV+ kitty. His pregnant mommy turned up on my cousin's porch and when the babies came, we claimed Bo and Cider, his littermate brother. I was devestated when we learned they were FeLV+. At first all went well. Then Cider developed a lump on his paw. It caused him pain so we had it removed. That started the snowball rolling. Within six weeks, he was paralyzed from the mid-section back with cancer that had attacked his spine. We did everything we could, including trips to the state vet school in Athens, GA, but we finally had to let him go. So far, at almost four years of age, Bo is healthy and robust!
Seven was next. My hubby found him as a tiny kitten on the loading dock of a grocery store, crying pitifully. Again, the FeLV+ diagnosis. Seven will be two in June. So far, so good!
Most recently, Darcy joined the family. She was abandoned where I work and once again, is FeLV+. She's not yet a year old and is a happy, healthy kitten. We're going to repeat her test soon to make sure of the diagnosis.
In addition to these three babies, we have one deaf cat (Shamrock) and one who is blind (Scarlett). The others are so-called 'normal'. 
So that's our story! We'd love to have you all as furriends! |  |  | |  |
