Meat baby food worked for my cat Meat baby food worked for my cat. Just be real careful because some baby foods in the glass jars that say turkey, chicken, etc also contain vegetables which made her throw up. Ir had to be the baby food that was all meat which I found difficult.

Juniors worked best, but she got to the point that she couldn't chew the juniors so had to go back to the younger baby baby foods. Hope this helps .

Focus on adding vitamins, digestive enzymes, and herbs. From Feline Leukemia Support:Q. Is there anything I can add to my FeLV+ cat's diet to help boost his/her immune system?

A.In addition to the treatment combination of Interferon and Immunoregulin, people are having the best success with adding supplemental vitamins, digestive enzymes, and herbs to their cat's diet. Pet-Tinic is a liquid vitamin mineral supplement with Iron that is especially good for anemic cats. Antioxidants will assist in the prevention of tissue damage.

One of the vets we have had on the list liked a procyanidin and curcuminoid combination and used "Life Force Super Antioxidants" made by the Infinity2 company for this. 1/2 capsule daily is sufficient. There are others out there that will also do the job.

Infinity2 also makes a product called "Vital Charge" that assists with the adverse side effects of corticosteroids, one capsule daily. The best nutrition you can get into your cat is very helpful. There are two ways to approach feeding:1.

You can add back digestive enzymes to prepared food to allow better utilization of food. Digest A Meal from Infinity2 (1/4 to 1/2 capsule per meal) and Prozyme (1/4 tsp. Per 1 cup of food) are both good, Viokase is not as effective as these.2.

You can use a mixture of raw food. Mix one part organ meat (liver and/or kidney) to 3 parts lean meat. Into this mixture, mix one part vegetables (green peas, broccoli florets or similar) to 6 parts of the meat mix.

Add one multiple vitamin (ex - Insure Plus from Infinity2) per pound and one Total Flora Support from Infinity2 (contains a patented, partially antibiotic resistant, beneficial gut bacteria) per pound. This can be frozen and retain its nutritional and enzyme values for about 6 months. Use good quality meats so they are clean and as parasite-free as possible.

The only drawback to feeding raw meat is the possibility of transmitting tapeworms, or of contracting salmonella from using raw chicken parts. Sources: http://www.felineleukemia.org/felvfaq.html#q3 .

The New Natural Cat recommends a raw food diet Good book by Anitra Frazier. She suggests the following:Feed a high quality diet with as much raw food as possible to build the immune system. Use the following proportions and choices:1.50 percent protein.

Raw hamburger or organic chicken or lightly cooked chicken, beef, lamb, turkey or liver. Raw organic egg yolk and cooked egg white or tofu may be used as part but not all the meat portion. 2.20 percent grain.

Oat bran soaked 24 hours in spring water or oat flakes soaked 48 hours, or cooked farina, Wheatena, oatmeal, teff, amaranth, or quinoa. 3.30 percent vegetables. Some can be cooked but raw is best.

Use finely grated raw carrot or zucchini. The raw vegetables should be grated or pureed and added right before serving. If you use cooked vegetables, steamed carrot, celery, zucchini, and string beans are best, but any other vegetable is permissible if your cat takes a fancy to it.

Peas, broccoli, asparagus, mashed corn, squash, or raw finely chopped alfalfa sprouts or chives are all good. She also suggests adding a few supplements to the cat's diet, including liquid calcium, feline enzymes, a little olive oil, vitamin A, zinc, Vitamin C and Vitamin E. I hope things work out!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
