Generally, cats are not
subject to many serious
diseases. But there is one
highly contagious disease,
feline enteritis (also known as
feline distemper or feline
panleukopenia), that can pre
sent grave danger.
Feline enteritis develops in
two stages: first, a continuous
high fever that drops after 36 to
40 hours; then a fluctuating
temperature.
Symptoms of the disease
include loss of appetite,
weakness, high temperature,
nasal or eye discharge and
some diarrhea. The cat will
show an obvious desire for
water but is unable to drink. It
will become weak, unrespon
sive and emaciated.
If you spot these symptoms,
seek immediate treatment
from your veterinarian. It may
save your cat’s life.
But until you can get
professional treatment, you
can attempt to relieve some of
your cat’s discomfort.
Move the cat to a quaran
tined area that is warm, well
ventilated and protected from
drafts and changes in tempera
ture.
Feed it small portions, as
often as you can, of anything
that the cat can be tempted to
eat: raw beef, cup custards,
beef broth, eggs, minced
chicken and other easily
digestible food.
Once you have consulted
your veterinarian for treat
ment, follow his directions to
the letter.
Feline enteritis seldom lasts
more than five to seven days.
But the mortality rate is
especially high among kittens,
and losses from 60 to 90 percent
of infected cats have been
reported.
Enteritis is an airborne
disease that can be transmitted
by a nasal discharge, infected
feces or fleas. Any material
that has been contaminated
also carries the disease. Its
dangerously contagious effect
continues for several days
after first indications of
symptoms.
Asa preventive to feline
enteritis, immunization by
your veterinarian is recom-

mended. Two vaccinations
given approximately 7 to 14
days apart will help to protect
your cat from the infection.
Resistance is obtained ap
proximately 7 days after the
second vaccination and lasts
for 8 months to a year.
Repeated annual vaccinations
are recommended.

When Susan got her new home,
electric energy was there.
Will it be there for you?
Susan’s only one of many Georgians of
all ages who built or bought new homes
last year. And added to the growing resi

Most homes depend on electricity in
some way. For lighting. Cooling and
heating. Refrigerating and cooking food.

THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
State Patrol Vows Rigid
Speed Enforcement
Due To Energy Crisis
ATLANTA - Newly nomi
nated State Public Safety
Commissioner Colonel J. H.
Cofer vowed this week that the
Georgia State Patrol would
bring out every resource in the
Safety Department to rigidly
enforce existing speed limit
laws in the State following an
order from Governor Jimmy
Carter for the State Patrol to
aid in the state’s plans to
conserve energy. Colonel Cofer
said he was directing the
Patrol to make increased use
of radar and Vascar speed
timing devices in issuing
speeding citations. Addition
ally, he said he was directing
state troopers to put more
emphasis on speeders during
routine patrols.
“Not only will our stepped-up
enforcement of speed violators
help in the conservation on
gasoline, we would also expect
to make a drastic impact on the
death and accident rate in
Georgia,” he said. Georgia

For you and your family. Right nowr
It’s our job to supply that
power. But our present facilities won’t
meet the growing demands. If people are
to continue building new homes and
finding jobs in Georgia, they must have
the power from plants being built today.
This new construction will take a lot of
money more than SSOO million this year.
Over ninety percent of that money
ffilk must e'c-nie through, borrowing and
the sale of stocks and bonds A

HHF What would you
p/ do without it?
Ti
highway fatalities are running
less than 1 percent under a
year ago with the deadliest
driving periods upcoming;
Thanksgiving and Christmas.
As part of the Department of
Public Safety’s contribution to
the fuel conservation plans,
Cofer said all Department
vehicles would be directed to
adhere to the 50 mph top speed
suggested by Governor Carter
except where troopers were
actually on official patrol or
were chasing a violator.
He said he did not want to
imply that the State Patrol was
out to fill up jails with speeders
but was assuring the public
that less tolerance would be
given persons who violate
speed laws.
Georgia’s speed laws state 70
miles per hour for interstates
and 60 for state and secondary
roads in the daytime and 65 for
interstates and 50 on other
roads at nighttime except
where otherwise posted.
