10/10/23 – I was September 20 when we were contacted about this sweet, very thin cat who was rescued while two women were trying to help with a hoarding situation. Mister’s leg appeared to be broken and his rescuer’s believed he had been someone’s pet at one time. He was taken to one of the best at Orion Animal Hospital. His leg had seemed to get better on its own so it was no longer a concern. He was found to be FIV positive, but we all know that the disease can’t be passed on without a deep bite and Mister is very friendly. But, his white blood cell and proteins count was a little abnormal. The doctor was concerned about FIP. Mister was given fluids and put on an antibiotic regimen for 14 days. Between that appointment and his October 9 follow up, he did have a fever which was concerning but that resolved itself with antibiotics and finally Mister went back to the doctor yesterday. He had gained one pound which was great and his blood work results were in normal range. He still is running a slight fever but the doctor ruled out FIP. He will be monitored a little longer and if the blood work remains normal and the fever goes away he will be neutered and on his way to a great life. – diana
