A lil' concerned as

Jamie and Big Ben are tested [high level] heartworm positive. The management told us Jamie refused to get out of his kennel, while Ben has been refusing to eat, much more than the rest of the boys.

Just last weekend, we paid a visit to our 7 in quarantine, now each confined in a separate kennel due to conflicts among themselves. Starting with Tommy from one end, all the way to Jonah or Jamie (can't remember which one) on the other. When they heard V's car engine, our 7 started yelping like mad, esp. Tiger -- big guy with shrill voice.

So we let them out 3 by 3 to have a run of the hallway to stretch themselves a little, peek over the window ledges and mingle with the humans. All seemed ok, while Tiger had to be forcibly carried into his kennel.

Jamie is on supplements to boost his health in anticipation of the treatment, while Big Ben, being stronger in spite of his high level heartworm infection, should be able to be treated sooner. Just more concerned with Jamie, he might not make it.
