That's good to hear Damon.  I hope you can continue his treatment.

That's also good... Hopefully you'll see some improvement in his condition as
well.  I guess there's no cure for the leukemia IIRC?

Sorry to take so long to get to this message, btw... we've been dealing with
our black lab, Toby, and getting him cared for.  He's got a number of problems
right now, including old age (he'll be 14 this fall).  We have to take him for
a sonogram this coming friday because one of his problems is a very large mass
in his abdomen.  We won't know if it's cancerous until they do a biopsy I
guess.

Good luck with your kitty :)

Take care,
Janis
