| I called Just Cats Inc to inquire about these cats, but just got
an answering machine. I did leave my work and home numbers. Is
there another number to call? (I don't trust answering machines.)
If anyone can give me any advice on Predisone, it would help my
decision. (It's a steroid, isn't it?)
Thanx.

| Prednisone is a steriod, I think cortisone. It is often used to
control allergies, flea allergy dermatitis, food allergies, things
like that. I currently have a cat on Prednisone. It is a small
pill, and very easy to give. Joui only gets 1/4 tablet every other
day, not too much trouble to administer.

| My brother's golden retriever is on prednisone for skin problems.
He gets it every other day, like Joui, and has had no side effects
at all from it.
My dog Zowie is also on steroids, though not prednisone. She gets
them twice a day, and also has had no side effects.
My cats are easy to pill. If you get the flame point, and she's
hard to pill, try wrapping it in soft cheese -- cream cheese or
Velveeta work well.
Siamese. Sigh. How I envy you...
Karen.

2732.6 | GOOD LUCK WITH NEW BABIE | MEMIT::ANKETELL | | Mon Aug 07 1989 11:18 | 12 |
| Ann!
Congratulations on your new baby. I just picked up a cat this morning
to deliver to someone in N.H. and Valerie from Just Cats, Inc. said you
had called just five minutes after I put the note into the files.
I am pleased for you and for me because if she were still available
this a.m. I probably would have adopted her. She sounded great. Good
luck.

2732.7 | LOCATION | MEMIT::ANKETELL | | Mon Aug 07 1989 11:37 | 7 |
| Just Cats, Inc. is located in Mansfield/Norton area very close to Great
Woods. The shelter is run by volunteers and they are great about
getting back to you.
Is anyone interested in the two 6 year old ones? If so give the
shelter a call.

2732.8 | China White has a Home | GIAMEM::FOLEY | Anne of DECUS | Mon Aug 07 1989 16:25 | 17 |
| Thanks, Winni. Like I always say, cat acquisition is like Irish
birth control... what's one more?
I brought China White home on Saturday. She settled in right away
amid much howling, growling and hissing. If I could have translated
it all it would have been something akin to "Tora Tora Tora" I believe.
At any rate, my crew are all talkers so I don't think China is in
any danger. Plus, I think she can take care of herself. She has
been through quite a bit and seems very strong. She is *very*
affectionate which is the best part.
Thanks for the tip, Winni. Now it's your turn for a Siamese!!
I'll encourage you...
Anne
