Free supplies for cat with kidney disease (Edited - Taken I think)

[wheeiminvisible.livejournal.com]

Edited to add that I think I've got someone to take them from me on Sunday. Thank you so much everyone for your kind words about my loss.

Hey everyone,

My cat recently passed away from kidney failure. While she was ill I treated her with subcutaneous fluids, and I still have about $80 worth of new, totally unused (I hope that's obvious) supplies. I'd hate for them to go to waste, and I'd like to help out someone else (and their kitty) who's in the same situation that I was. I've got:

- Four lactated ringer bags - 5cc's of B-complex was added to each (for increased energy)
- 28 needles

I'm in the Porter Square area. Let me know if you're interested or have any questions...

I'm sorry about your kitty. This is such a nice thing to do. =)

That happened to my cat this year too. I'm sorry to hear it on your end. :(

Actually, that's a really inspiring idea. I have tons of leftover supplies as well. Unfortunately I don't live near Davis or I'd make a post here too.

I'm sorry for your loss. *hug*

That's a sweet thing to do. I'd recommend calling the Kitty Connection. 781-393-9995 or www.kittyconnection.net .

I'm really sorry about your cat.

City cats in Arlington Center can hook you up with somebody who needs a donation.

When my cat died of the same ailment, I brought the unused supplies back to the vet. Anything pristine, and thusly reusable, they credited my account.

I am so sorry to hear about your kitty. Orrs passed away in January from a really aggressive cancer. We still miss him like crazy.

I used to volunteer for Safe Harbor for Animals (which was cats only actually) in Somerville but I am not sure if they are still around. I think the shelter may be in PetSmart's hands now.

I have a coworker who could use these; I sent you a message.

So sorry to hear this! My own cat was just diagnosed with kidney disease (that's him in the icon).

I'm soon to be getting training for subcutaneous fluids. If you still have the supplies, I would be glad to take them.

That is exactly what I was going to post. No kill shelters, home environment, people who have dedicated a great deal of their home life and non-work time to saving feline lives.

Kitty Connection is amazing, and right over the line in Medford, I think. Apart from supplies like this, my partner and I have given them partial bags of food when we bought them but the little guys didn't like it.

Your generosity during your time of loss is touching. I hope you find the comfort that you share with others.

Kitty Connection is good, I also recommend Boston Animal Rescue League. We adopted a cat from each and the Animal Rescue League is amazing!
