Hi, everyone. I just wanted to post a quick update on River. I recently saw the woman who runs the rescue that he's at (in my attempt to find three baby kittens and their mother a rescue -- to no avail). Anyway, I was not at the rescue, so I did not see River, but she told me he's doing...

Thanks for posting the update on River. He looks so good, and it looks like he has a friend now! So glad to hear he's doing well, I was so afraid he wasn't going to make it. Looks like he has a much better life now :-)

Hi, everyone. I hope you all have been doing well. I'm the one who originally called the rescues about getting Tracks/River help when he was sick in my complex. I wrote to the woman who rescued River last week, and we talked a bit about how cats can survive and have great lives with the FIV, but...

Yeah, he definitely does not like to be touched. I know the rescuer was able to pet his ear slightly in the cage once he was at the rescue, and he didn't attack her, so that makes me wonder if he would eventually come around with the right human. Haven't heard anything back yet on him, so hoping...

Sorry, I had not seen the response from Norachan before I posted. But yes, that's correct. He is not able to be handled.

I know, it's so sad. The rescuers work so hard. I stopped writing to the rescue as often just because I wasn't really receiving answers, or they were very short answers. I'm sure she's just busy and it's not anything personal. But I did ask her a few days ago how he was doing and she said...

If writing that up does get them more donations, then I say go for it! I think I was taken aback for about 1/2 a second, and then said F it, whatever, just treat him :-)

You're so sweet! As long as he's taken care of, it's fine with me!

Yeah, it seemed like when I told her we had named him Tracks she was not really interested. I only told her it because that's what we've called him for a bit now, so I thought he was maybe starting to learn it? I do know what you mean though about them not liking when you name them, because she...

He was a beautiful cat before he was sick. Did you see the photo I posted of him that I took last year? You can't see him that well, but he's long haired and heavy and just really good looking. I hope he can look like that again one day. I'm not sure why she changed the name. I think she...

Your daughter is so cute! I told the rescuer last night that he's on his way to becoming a lap cat lol. She said not quite yet, but maybe one day :-)

Yes, she sent me that photo last night! I couldn't believe it. I was telling her how the past few weeks he's come and kind of sit near me, which made me wonder if I was wrong about him being feral, but when I'd try to touch him he'd start hissing and sometimes growling. She said he's still...

Awww, y'all are so sweet. I really didn't do anything. The trapper and rescuer and vet will really be the ones to do something. I just feel guilty that it took me as long as it did. It's hard when you don't feel like you have any options or anywhere to turn. I'm just hoping it's not too late.

I definitely will! I don't know if they'll let me or not, but if they do, I'm going to maybe go visit him over the weekend, so I will keep y'all updated.

Oh, and by the way, I did go and speak with my neighbor earlier today. She basically just wanted to make sure he wasn't going to be brought out back and killed but that there were good intentions behind it. Also, she said that she will be making a donation for his treatment. So even though I was...

Well, Tracks has been trapped. This man was extremely experienced (and gutsy) and did trap him. I found out he's a male. He did end up using a net. I feel guilty, but I know they are going to do everything they can to help him. He's being taken tonight to Whiskers Animal Rescue & Sanctuary in...

That's a great idea. I haven't found her yet today so I think she must be hiding.

And this is something that I just thought would be informative for others to know about. One of the sanctuaries wrote back saying they could not accept her as they are full, but advised me to always have an IFA test performed as opposed to a snap test in the office when testing for leukemia. The...

I talked to the woman from the rescue group last night and she assured me the only way she would approve putting her down is if she is too bad that there is no chance of recovery -- which, I guess if that's the case, I would have to approve also. I just am conflicted as to what's considered "no...
