I use the intraocular intranasal vaccines on the small ones. We even have plague here. A man in Bend, OR, this summer, contracted the plague trying to get a mouse out of the throat of a cat he fed outside. The cat was in bad shape, had that mouse stuck in its throat, but also, was ill with the plague, probably transmitted to the cat from the rodent. The cat bit the man, as he tried to pry the rodent from its throat. The man shot the cat to put it out of its misery, it was so sick, then got sick himself almost immediately. he was not immediately diagnosed with plague, so he really suffered, but did survive. Kind of scary sometimes, all the zoonic diseases, like plague and rabies.Strayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08124298302997708537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3476582663759711920.post-81175874801874781152012-07-31T12:56:51.180-04:002012-07-31T12:56:51.180-04:00I'm sad the kittens didn't make it.

To put so much love and effort ...I'm so sorry. To put so much love and effort into them, only to have it end like that is just so...unfair. If it was distemper, what does that mean for the mom?mikkennoreply@blogger.com
