I recently rescued this abandoned boy and took him to my Vet. They ran all tests imaginable and found out he is FIV positive and also has a heart condition (they ran the BNP something test for his heart.) They vaccinated him for everything, de-wormed, etc. Gave him some booster shots. They neutered him as well. He is the sweetest cat, but it was next to impossible to find him a home.
With the help of many good people and some donations, I found an excellent "cat resort" for him, they specialize in sickly kitties. We drove him there on Saturday, and it really is the best place for special cats. Their Vet was visiting Monday and she said that in her many years as a Vet, she never saw a cat with such a strong heart murmur. They probably will do ultrasound some time later to see more specifically what could be done to make his life longer. That's how the Vet put it....
I am so sad, he had a very hard life already and I still hope that he has many years of a good and happy cat life in the care of this very nice resort.
My question is for those of you who had a similar situation and experience - what are your stories? bad and good. Thank you.
