I tried call the girl tonight and I haven't heard anything yet so I'm going to try in a little bit so we'll see.

Well, I can't take in a FeLV positive cat. I just don't have a space for one of them.

As for FIV+, I do have another FIV+ boy here, but he can sometimes be not very friendly with male cats. I will keep him here with my non-FIV+ boy upstairs if he's negative. If he's positive and not aggressive, I will try to keep him here as well. I really don't want to put a cat in the shelter.

One major thing that worries me is that I don't want to have another cat that is going to be unadoptable, and then have a cat living here for years as a foster. I am over the city limit by 5 right now (double the limit). There is a possibility that I could put him in our shelter if he's negative for FeLV and doesn't get along with my foster Sassy. I don't want to doom any cat to the shelter, but I guess it would be better than nothing. If he's negative for FeLV and FIV, and he's in good health and will be updated on his shots and neutered and will be able to handle being on display, he could go to PetSmart in the future as well. Any cat that is positive for anything or ill in any way is not allowed in PetSmart (their rules).

As for when to meet, I can't say right now because I don't know what my schedule is going to be for my PT job. I'm hoping to be able to know what it will be in a few days. I'll be there tomorrow night, so if I get an update, I'll let you know ASAP.

Jenn,

Sounds good we will just have to wait and see what happens that following Monday when I take him to the vets and see if he's good to go or what at that time.

Thank you again so much,

Melissa

Melissa,


Ok I really want to see you get the cat if at all possible. But I just thought I would mention of you are thinking of this coming Monday, Sept 3rd that is Labor Day and I am pretty sure Mt. Nittany is closed. I really wish I could donate something to you. But I just had 150 dollar vet bill on Kaliban and then we had to have Dr. Metrey come out at 8:30 Friday evening to help her to the Bridge and I haven't received the bill for that yet.

I was at Shirley's yesterday giving her a small hand and she said you have been really helping her a lot. Thank you. We checked Toby's sugar levels and they were over 340. I have some glipizide I can donate to her if Michelotti wants to go that route.

I will go to Ohio this weekend to get Tigger only because he deserves to be given a chance at a happy life rather then being with people who try to leave him outside.

Don't worry I completely understand about money....I have to take my new kitten to the vets today and right off the bat just for walking in is $36 not including any meds....plus last week I spent $40 on Hermes to find out he has a sensitive stomach so now he's on special food and so are the rest of them...

I did call Mt. Nittany this morning and yes they are closed on Monday so I will just keep Tigger an extra day and if he does not test positive then maybe he will come back to the house but I'm not sure how my other cats are going to react when I'm trying to get them use to someone now...

No problems...I'm glad you mentioned it and once I saw her article in the CDT it made me want to help her out more....she adopted out 5 kittens this weekend and then I think another 2 on Monday...I did hear last night that she took 2 more in but I'm going to give her a call tonight and possibly go over and get more pictures of the kitties and start getting them on petfinder and statecollege.com

Your thoughts are worth more in money
Thanks,
Melissa

Melissa, how much has been donated so far? I think it might help to keep a running toll on the board so others know how much has been donated and how much more is needed.

I WILL/HAVE RECEIVED $66.91 IN DONATIONS SO FAR.

I DID MAIL A CHECK FOR $55 TO ORPHANS OF THE STORM TO GET THE NEUTERING COUPON SO HE CAN GET CHECKED UP FIXED, AND SHOTS.

SO THE TOTAL LEFT I NEED IS $56.09 BUT WITH BOARDING COSTS IT WOULD BE ANOTHER $56.00 (4 NIGHTS) and to be honest I would rather board him only because my kitten I just took to the vets has an URI SO THE GRAND TOTAL OF WHAT I NEED IS: $112.00 but of course that does not include gas for 6 hours...or gas for another 3 hours to drive to allentown it usually cost my car about $40 to fill up a tank and I'm assuming it would take 2 tanks for fill it up to go to allentown and back and to go to Ohio and back.

Well I finally got a hold of Ashley owner of Tigger and she won't be home on Saturday but her friend who posted the ad on statecollege.com is going to be holding Tigger for me on Saturday to pick him up.

Well that's all for now.
