Expert: Marie Peppers / Cat Food / NuVet Feline Formula. - 5/20/2009

Question
We have a Ragdoll, Sidney, that we took in 4 years ago - we have known for some time that something seemed off, I took her to the vet 3 different times to make sure it was not something serious - having them check her weight and some lumps on her stomach - in the past we were told they were fat deposits and nothing to worry about and to feed her the i/d wet cat food...so we have been...yesterday we noticed her back right leg/foot was verging on being 3X the size of her other feet...took her to the vet, she didn't have a fever, which ruled out abscess, did an x-ray & she has a tumor on her lung, liquid in her lungs, her lymphatic something is blocked, making her foot swell and possible another tumor or swollen lumph nodes at the top of her heart/back of her trachea - they gave her a shot of steroid and said it will make her comfortable for about a month. Her breathing seems even more labored now and she is more lethargic...I want to do what we can, but don't want her to suffer. I am ordering 2.5lb Feline's Pride Chicken Catfood - Priority shipping today. How should I start feeding it to her? Do you think it is too late? Please let me know and if you could copy your reply to my email that would be wonderful. Thanks.
Laura

Answer
Oh Laura and Miss Sideny.... I am so sorry guys!  There is always a chance for more time .... The Feline's Pride looks good!  Cats seem to do very well on raw - easy for them to digest compaired to dogs.
I am not a raw feeder but I do think it is fine for most cats.

Please try her on some NuVET Feline Immune system booster:
NuVET Plus - just give her 1/2 teaspoon per day mixed into the Raw Feline's Pride.
NuVET will help to reduce some of the swelling and works on the Immune system to fight!!!
Call now - you will get it in 3 days if you call now:
1-800-474-7044  ( tell them pet Nurse Marie wants you to do just 1/2 a dosage per day ) AFTER 10 days, you can go to 1 full dosage per day...
Work up slowly ---
