Their vet has thrown up his hands and said "nothing more we can do",

As a sequel to my post yesterday:
Khamun is much better this morning, eating and happier, but still quiet.
Sure he'll be fine later today - he's booked in for the second shot in a few

take her to Madison (2 1/2 hour drive) last Wednesday for the ...

Amber spends a lot of time sleeping on her window seat.  The seat has a
heating pad (set on low) covered by a piece of fleece.  She has some
"bare" spots on her belly and I notice some hair accumulating on the
fleece (click on link to see a picture).  Do you think this is a result

I know the laws are different for every state, but I was wondering if anyone
