Mary's gone forever. Have your fun NOT ANOTHER ****ING WORD ABOUT IT You wanted her gone? Done. She said! She is done.

I just saw on the news that an a rescue team from the AHS here in Phoenix is on its way to the San Diego area to help out. The unit will include five AHS Emergency Animal Medical Technicians, a vet team, two rescue ambulances, and a 60 foot mobile hospital. They intend on doing welfare checks on...

One of the boys has started having a bald patch at the base of his tail (top); it started gradually and is not lumpy looking but is irritated. As none of the other cats have this, I am hoping it's not infectious, but in a way that's worse as I'm not sure what to do. I am guessing stress or...

With the recent developments (the mauling and the firing of the supporting cast) it makes me wonder if S&R have been prudent with their finances and their operation of the business. One would think someone would be trained to take the stead of either S&R in a situation as what occurred to Roy. As...

Hello, I know that pretty much everybody on this website is going to disagree with me about letting cats outside, but I really don't believe in making my cats life miserable. I got him from a shelter two months ago, and have had him inside until yesterday. He spends all day crying at the windows....

I haven't seen my cat drink any water. I do feed her 100% canned and she spends several hrs outdoors, so could be drinking when I am not there to notice it. Is this something to worry about or should I just leave water around and let her nature take its course? Should I try to insist that she...

and his left front foot is missing. I don't know if it was caused by an accident or a disease, but I can see bone and there is a lot of blood. Anyone know what might have caused this problem? He doesn't seem uncomfortable, but then, he is unconscious. I plan to take him to the vet but wanted to...

Today she abandoned her hidey-hole and perched on the stub wall that encloses the shower cabinet. She stayed there all day. I went in the bathroom several times and took some pictures, and she didn't budge. I got a better look at her when she was sitting in front of the nanny cam, and she looks...

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/local/story/137778p-122499c.html In the version of this story that ran locally, the lawyer for the breed group said labeling tail docking as cruel was as silly as saying declawing cats is cruel. I guess she doesn't realize that declawing *is* cruel. I hope that...

Hello everyone, I'm a new poster here, and am wondering if anyone else has had this experience. First, the positives, Francesca is an apparently healthy seven-month old female, who is alert, curious and has a good appetite for every meal. I feed both my cats a raw meat diet mixed in with...

As I have mentioned previously, I am caring for a cat who is about 1 year old. During the warmer days she was outdoors all day, but came inside to sleep. Then she met her first Midwestern winter and didn't know what hit her. But she has adjusted, sort of, goes out many times each day and returns in...

Hi everyone - it's me again. Millie has been home now for two days. She was spayed on Wednesday; the day before she received her shots. I don't think she has eaten since Tuesday night - I'm very worried. I called the vet today, they said to come in tomorrow to get some a/d food which should tempt...

Come on, people. Post away. Face it, the group is not better off with less posts, on-topic or not. Post as you post. Discuss what you will. That's what Usenet is for.

I had to go stock up on food for the girls. Before going to Wal-Mart I told DH that I wouldn't be surprised if Fancy Feast had gone up alarmingly in price from the usual US$0.45 per 3.5oz can. I was pleasantly surprised when I found that FF had gone *DOWN* in price to US$0.40 per 3.5ox...

I'm getting good not squishing my cats at night when I sleep I think Nick was trying to tell us he's tooled around with bestiality I bring that up because every time I try to post something serious, nick turns it into something nasty .... yeah.. the cats haven't always slept with me all night,...

If we can eat it and live on it, cats can eat it and live on it. Meghan feeds her cats veggies.. WE ALL DO cornmeal. I think the real picture here is... cats won't eat squash because they prefer the turkey giblets in gravy... I am starting to feed my cats table scrap veggies... I have to admit,

Buddha's checkup today revealed that she is indeed hyperthyroid. The doctor showed me how enlarged her thyroid is now. I'm kicking myself because another vet saw this a year ago, but because her T3 levels were only high-normal I did nothing. (Either I misunderstood what this doctor's partner said...
