I am a firm believer of when it rains, it pours. Yesterday we took these three cats in as well as they were all sick and needed medical attention.
The black and white one (Oreo) we were told he had been having seizures over several days, so we don’t know how many he actually had, but he was unable to walk. By this time he had neurological damage. He also tested positive for FeLV/ FIV
The buff cat, with a huge abscess/tumor in the jaw, had gotten quite large.
The orange /white cat (Long Legs) he was very ill with upper respiratory, he was so very sick, he was FeLV/ FIV positive, symptomatic, his poor body was just worn out.
The buff cat (Dragon) he had a huge tumor/ abscess in his jaw. He would have to have this removed, and aftercare was going to basically near impossible due to him being feral. There would be no way to treat him daily, and he was also FeLV FIV positive.
As you all know we have saved many FeLV /FIV cats, so please do not think these cats being FeLV or FIV positive was what made our decision on each cat, we had to look hard at quality of life on each individual cat. After speaking to the Veterinary staff and tests being done, sadly euthanasia was what was kindest for them. There is no cure for FeLV or FIV but the other things that was wrong with each cat was more damaging.
This is NEVER, EVER something we take lightly. And it is never what we want. It’s heartbreaking to say the least and it weighs heavy on us. We can only pray everyone understands and we know they are no longer in pain or sickness.
We do still need help with their bill, office visit, testing and cremations if anyone would like to donate it would be appreciated.
