I have had my cat declawed when he was 6 months old, along with having
him 'fixed'. My mother with her cat as well. I have never had any
behavioral problems with my cat due to these procedures. I don't think
declawing is any more inhumane than the amputating of dog tails and
clipping of ears on...

should we kill all our pet cats coz of asian flu? by
[email protected]
if we're gonna be receiving loads of birds with asian flu, and if cats
love to bite, munch, hunt and haunt birds, then 2 and 3 equals 5,
therefore our cats are very likely to get asian flu, which means that
all those grandmas with cats will catch it too and drop dead which is
great because i'm not...

The Strange Passions of Tiny Tabbies by
cybercat
I have a 7-lb gray tabby with a slight, long, pointy-faced kind of build.
She is very polite and cautious, but seeks us out for "boneless cat" kind of
affection and conquers her rubber snake several times a day with great
fanfare. This is a "thinking cat." The kind who gives you a little...

Has any one had a cat with blood in the stool? by
yogipet-online
I have two Abysinnians, Tatoi and Chui. They are sisters and both are
7 years old just this January.
In early February, Chui had bright red drops in her stool one morning.
I was so shocked, I called my vet who told me to bring her in that
afternoon. When the vet examined her, she gave me...

Flea and Tick control for cats- Koko and Kady - Bartonella also by
laurie w
You all might remember me posting about Koko and Kady, Koko with herpes
( maybe not ) and Kady the stray ( now she is a big girl). Well, it
has warmed
up a little here in Florida, so the doggie Gabby has been spending more
time
outside with us as we clean up the yards. Well, in the last couple...

Sticky Paws by
Pixi
Hi,
I have a 15 year old tabby called Rosie. She is still very fit and
healthy and enjoys scratching anything that comes her way. However,
over the past couple of months she has started to get her claws stuck
in clothing, carpets, etc. as she can't retract them properly. She has
never been one...

wildcat needs home by
[email protected]
I have a nine month old wild cat. Any suggestions on finding him a
home?
The vet and pound and cat shoppe in my area said you can't really find
homes for a wildcat very easily if at all. And now he's not a kiten
anymore which will make it harder I would think.
Thanks

I have a dog who has access to a fenced backyard through a pet door. I
recently got a 4 month old kitten. He gets along well with the dog, &
has been declawed & chipped. We want to keep him indoors but lately he
has figured out how to use the pet door & get out. We are afraid he
might go under or...

Messy Butt by
J King
I took in a stray calico a few years ago. Very timid cat. She doesn't have
diarhea or anything but it just sticks to her fur. Sometimes she has dry
knobs stuck to it. She tends to smell bad. The problem is that she goes
ballistic whenever I try to cut them off. She also doesn't let me cut...

Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA): Anyone Know Anything About It? by
Elle
Has anyone done any work with this association?
I do some volunteer work for an animal rescue organization, recognized as a
charity under law, blah blah. It provides labor for certain CFA shows, and
in return, CFA makes a nice charitable contribution and (truly) helps
promote rescue cat adoption....

Random Attacks from the cat by
Vahehoo
Hi,
Just wanted to get an opinion and see if anyone else has experience
similar to what I am going through.
I had cats all my life. From early age, my parents being animal lovers
allowed me and my brother have pets. I really like having pets in my
house, cats especially.
After I got married we...

I love philosophical and scientific statements found here and in web

All Natural Kitty Stimulants by

Woke up to the little tabby bouncing from window to window and leaping on
the dresser knocking stuff off, trying to dig her way out of the corner of
the bedroom through the wall. (And just last night I was worried that the
cats might get bored.)
As it turns out a none-too-bright woodpecker was...

Scottie left today 2/28 by

I had him put to sleep this afternoon. He had an esophageal stricture
meaning the opening was very narrow. The vet felt it was probably
cancer but we won't ever know because I opted to not send the specimen
to the pathologist. There is really nothing that could have been done
other than to...

I have been playing around with my obsolete camera (digimax 130) on my
obsolete computer (p1 @262mhz) running my obsolete software (win 95b
w/motto hairu USB, pic publisher 7a). I came up with a picture of
Tweaker that I liked, so I posted it in alt.binaries.pictures.animals.

Toilet behaviour by
psychman
Greetings feline fans
My cat has recently taken to going to the toilet indoors, in a corner or
just -um- on the spot if pushed. She's 8, healthy, a bit timid. There's a
catflap to a large garden and she's on speaking terms with neighbouring
cats.
She's never been keen on venturing out if it's wet...
