UPPER VALLEY – “I’d be very lonely without my cats, I’d be very lonely,” said Eva Butler. 80-year-old Eva Butler has 3 cats to keep her company, but she is having a hard time paying for their care. “During that China food scare… Two of my cats got very sick,” said Butler. That’s why the Upper Valley Humane Society has been helping her pay for special cat food because Eva’s cats have severe kidney problems from China’s contaminated cat food. “Without her help, I couldn’t do it, because I’m on a fixed income,” said Butler. And Eva isn’t the only senior in need of help. “A lot of older people are abandoning their pets. I guess they’re becoming a burden on them, and that’s sad,” said Butler. And it isn’t because seniors are being neglectful. Eva inherited her cats when her 2 sons passed away. All three of Eva’s cats are spade and neutered. “It’s such a comfort to have those dear sweet things there,” said Butler. It’s sort of been a mixed blessing. “if anyone would like to help donate to help seniors pet, please get in touch with Andy,” said Butler. You can reach Andy with the Humane Society at this phone number: (208) 681-4788.

Question by Anonymous: I just found out I’m pregnant, but I work at an animal hospital?
I just found out I’m pregnant (possible 5-8 weeks now, unsure of actual conception date and yet to see a gynecologist) with my boyfriend’s baby (we’ve been together for almost seven years). I work in an animal hospital and come in contact with a lot of dog and cats. I know about toxoplasmosis with cats. I ALWAYS wash my hands before and after handle each animal really well. Should I quit my job now to protect my baby or can I hold it off for another month or so? I can’t afford to quit as of now or at least until I start to really show, just mostly due to my student loans and my car loan to pay off and living and pet expenses. I’d hate to depend on someone else (aka my boyfriend to be burdened with my loans).

I also assist in minor surgical procedures, where I’m the anesthetic technician. Will that cause any harmful affected or damage to my baby?

Please let me know of any other risks I’m taking by remaining to work at an animal hospital during my first pregnancy.

P.S. I have three (a nine year old and two eleven year olds) senior dogs at home too, I know they are perfectly healthy other than one of then having hip dysplasia (he’s on medication for that) and one with cancer, and the last one just a little arthritis, but no risk of any of them them passing any zoonotic disease to me as they do not come in contact with any other animal (wild or other people’s pets).

Thanks so much in advance!
Also, I have been taking a lot of x-rays of animals the past three weeks, but we wear lead body covers and thyroid covers as well as gloves. Will this still harm the baby?

Answer by baby jonathon josiahs mom
i worked at one when i was pregnant the 3rd time. you cant assist with surgeries and you cant help taking xrays. you have to let the vet know that you are pregnant…when i told them i had to become a kennel cleaner and receptionist. oh it sucked.

Wellness Indoor Health Dry Cat Food

• 5-lb bag

Wellness Indoor Health Dry Cat Food is a well-rounded, solution-focused diet of meats, grains and fruits for cats that live indoors. These cats tend to gain weight (lifestyle is more sedentary), experience dry skin (from continued exposure to indoor air and heat), and have increased hairballs (from constant grooming and hair loss from dry skin).

All of these issues seem worse to their respective owners who interact much more with their indoor cat including a close watch of litterbo

Question by * Shelter dogs are the best *: Can I feed large breed adult dog food to an Aussie mix and a Lab?
I recently acquired a senior English Mastiff from a former friend who dumped all her pets for no good reason. Because she’s a bit older (6) and has some weird chronic minor health conditions (lots of tiny cysts pop up), and because my other dogs aren’t getting any younger, I’ve decided to switch to a quality kibble. (I’ve been doing a combo of low quality kibble and plain ol’ meat.)

But I don’t want to mess with more than 2 different kinds of kibble at once if necessary. Can I feed large breed adult food to all of them? I’ve got a 4.5 year old lab with hip dysplasia and a 3 year old Aussie mix who weighs 50 pounds.

The only difference in large breed food and regular food that I can discern is that the large breed food has glucosamine and stuff for healthy joints. Is there anything else?

I plan on trying Orijen, Blue Buffalo, Avoderm, and/or Merrick.
Whoops – I mean I don’t want to mess with more than ONE kibble at once if necessary.
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking, how can glucosamine be bad for any dog?

If there are no other differences I don’t see why you couldn’t feed large breed food to a dachshund if you wanted to.

Best answer:

Answer by mec8404
that would be fine. dogs 50lbs+ are considered large so a large breed formula would be fine. and the glucosamine for joints is good for all dogs not just large.
