tried finding this online but no luck... my cat gets 'crumblike' dark bits in the corners of her eyes. she had 3 babies 11 days ago (who are all orange, plump and gorgeous...eyes open and more 'walking than creeping' already!)i see, though, that they now have these crumby bits as well. doesn't...

Our cat came home with a size of flesh missing from his neck abhout the size of a quarter. He does not appear fazed at all and the area does not appear sensitive to him, nor is it bleeding. We are quite concerned about infection, and that scratching may start bleeding. It is late at night and we...

On my last feral roundup, I was holding 5 cats awaiting neutering. One of them was ****ting on the floor and I had to figure out which one. I borrowed the new camera from work, a Nikon Coolpix S1 which has a time lapse photography feature. I set it for 30 seconds and left it in the room...

We pulled this cat out of a shelter on her last day. She looks like an Aby to me- What do you think? http://maxshouse.com/Rescues/Aby.jpg

I've been buying the 6-oz cans of Iams canned food for I dunno how long. At some point this year they changed their formula and now it's either pellets or "flakes". My cats sort of pick at it and they are not fussy, I tell you. So I thought I'd try Science Diet, so I had to go out to Petsmart...

About a month ago I took in a stray, about 1/2 grown cat/kitten. Very energetic, eats good, etc. Last nigh she vomited after eating and at first I thought she must have found a piece of string and eaten it, then noticed it was moving. The cat vomited again a couple minutes later and there was...

We live in an apartment complex, so this is a security deposit issue. Big bucks. Perhaps a thousand dollars. Our kittens are about six months old now, indoor calico kittens/cats. They love hanging out on the screened porch, which is ground level. They can eyeball people walking by, and listen to...

Ethyl has been going different directions but Sat she went to the pit and there was a kitten! I got some zoomed in photos but only saw one. Sunday she took off to the tracks and I saw the little one there. I got some photos, she let me know if I got too close. The little one then went down the...

Reading all the sad posts makes me want to hold my cats tight... but they are not the snuggly type! They don't like being held, and only come to snuggle when they feel like it, rarely! Is there some way to encourage them to be more snuggly? They are 7, one male and one female.

Hello All, I have a feral cat that I adopted about two years ago (she didn't exhibit any feral tendencies when we adopted her and didn't become aware of her situation until a couple of months after). Anyways, about a year ago we got two kittens. Our feral cat didn't take well to them, despite...

This kitten cracks me up. I put a litter box in the master bathroom when we brought him home so I could isolate him for a while. There are 2 others in the basement, but I still have this one up here, right next to the toilet. Since I use Feline Pine, it actually smells good (and I scoop...

"Nomen Nescio" wrote in message ... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- TK went for his yearly Echo, etc., at Tufts this week. Some good news, and, as I see it, a disturbing development. The Good: TK has turned out to be...

I am new to the group. Let me introduce Sherwood, a large 2-year-old cream colored neutered male who I suspect is about l/8 Siamese. His original owner, an old gentleman, became ill and the family gave away Sherwood's three young siblings. Sherwood hid under the bed and missed that adoption. My...

My 14-week-old kitten just doesn't get it. She has to be in either a cage, or a very small room with litterbox, toys, and food, in order to understand that we USE THE BOX and not the corner for pooping. Her health is fine and there are no introduction problems with other cats (she's loving my...

Yesterday I was petting my cat - he got a little annoyed and gave me a stronger nip than usual - he took a decent bite out of my hand which was bleeding for a while. I washed it off and put on a couple bandages. I barely felt it so I thought little of it. Today the area of the bite is...
