4191.0. "Silver-shaded Persian for Adoption" by GEMVAX::MCMAHON () Tue Nov 20 1990 14:08

    I am posting this adoption notice for someone who works at Data
    General.  Please respond directly to Larry Levine; his home and
    work phone numbers are listed in his writeup about Chloe.
    
                    Silver-shaded Persian for Adoption
                    ----------------------------------
    
    Chloe is a 4 1/2 year old shaded-silver Persian who is spayed,
    declawed, and has her pedigree papers.  Chloe has had repeated
    urinary infections which are probably caused by kidney stones.
    Her present owners cannot afford to give Chloe the medical attention
    that she deserves.
    
    If you are interested, or know someone who might be interested in
    adopting Chloe, please contact Larry.  He is willing to relocate
    Chloe anywhere in New England, New York State, or upper New Jersey.
    
    Here are Larry's work and home phone numbers:
    
    (508) 870-6291 (Work -- Westboro, MA)
    (508) 435-6231 (Home -- Hopkinton, MA)

    For those of you who are wondering why I didn't adopt Chloe, my family
    has adopted four cats since the summer.  I'd love to adopt every
    furface that needs a home, but my finances won't permit it.

    Do the present owners know about CD, etc.?

    Just how often does she have tract infections?  I'll think about taking
    her if she isn't gone already.  Has she tried feeding her Eukanuba low
    ash food?

    Karen,
    
    What is CD?  I don't think I've heard of it before.

    I suggest that you contact the owner directly.  Chloe sounds like a
    sweet puddytat, but I merely posted the basenote for someone who works
    at Data General.  A friend of mine here at Digital thought it would be
    a good idea to post an adoption notice.  If you talk with the owner,
    you'll find out more details about Chloe's medical history, such as
    the frequency of her urinary tract infections.  BTW, the owner's phone
    numbers are listed in the base note.
    
    I can't answer your questions, but I'm sure that Chloe's present owner
    can fill you in on her medical problems.
    
    Thanks for your interest, Lisa!

    CD is a type of cat food that helps prevent urinary tract problems.
    It's available thru vet's offices.

    Hill's C/D is a "prescription diet" and is available only from a vet.
    The reason its best for preventing UTI's is that not only is it low
    ash, but it also contains a urine acidifier.  For that reason, it is
    important NOT to give an additional urine acidifier when feeding C/D
    unless specifically instructed by a vet.
