I wanted to share with the group my experience of traveling to New Orleans to work with Animal Rescue New Orleans. I was there November 19-26. Their website is www.animalrescueneworleans.com I have created a website to chronicle my experience. It is located at...

We really loved our female seal point applehead balinese cat that we recently lost to mammory cancer. We brought her home with us when she was 8 weeks old and enjoyed her for the 15 years she was with us. Because of our wonderful experience with her, we decided that we would like another female...

Hold a 'blacklight' up to the area. Many (BUT NOT ALL) strains of ringworm 'fluoresce (glow) under the blacklight. Any areas 'denuded' of fur should be suspect. Ringworm is not a worm at all, but a fungus that tends to grow in round patches. (Hence the misnomer). Good luck. It IS contagious to...

Or a Purebred Rescue group, if you are desperate for a Manx I treasure my two girls, Toes and Marbles. Marbles adopted me thru a local no-kill shelter. greytoes @ earthlink.net "Cat Protector" wrote in message news:PvKbc.46107$vJ1.22045@okepread01... Why don't you adopt...

What is everyones ideas on the microchip. Is it worth it for a indoor only cat? DeborahY

Some of you will remember me and h0p. h0p is my 12 1/2 year old former feral cat who has been my heart and inspiration for these last many years. It's my hope that in my lifetime I can show the bravery, courage, and grace that he has shown in fighting a heart murmer, toxoplasmosis,...

Can someone provide some assistance on how to find a home for two cats in the Houston area? This is for my son who provided the following info: Searching for a new home in the Houston area for two neutered black cats. The cats are 7 year old litter mates (born approx. December 1996) named Punk...

Hi, all: I haven't posted to any of the .cats groups since we lost KitKat 3 years ago, but now I have a question.... On the 25th of May we discovered on the back stoop a frightened little kitten about 6 weeks old (said the vet). KitKat had taught us to obey, so there was no question about taking...

PJ has been scratching lately, but I didn't know what brand of flea treatment to get him. On the grocery run to Wal-Mart today, I found they had 3 brands; Sergeant's (regular and 'gold' varieties), Hartz (nightmare stories there), and another ("Nexxum" or something, about $7.00 ). Is the...

Just became a cat owner a few months ago and thought I had done all my homework on the pros and cons of owning a cat, but there's always something you miss. In my case, it's the dust from the kitty litter that has settled over everything in my home. Is there anything that can be done to...

I thought I would up grade and bough a staywell 400 magnetised doodah with authentic mouse ball collar, well let me tell you here and now that the magnetic cat flap is useless. The reason being is the magnetic collar part must come into contact with the base of the cat flap for it to work otherwise...

I have just given my cat synulox drops as perscribed by the vet, 1.25 ml straight from the bottle, it has caused him to salivate quite badly and has caused him some distress, does this mean he has had an allergic reaction?

Help! Went to a neighborhood event Sunday and learned, to my horror, that my male, spayed, 4-5 year old cat has been spraying in 2 houses. The 2 neighbors didn't bring up the matter; it just developed in conversation. I feel absolutely SICK! Wish they had TOLD me! Neighbor #1 says that my cat...

I have a 7 year old male cat. He's had no behavior problems since we've had him but about two or three weeks ago he started pooping on the floor in random places. It doesn't seem like he does this every time he has to go and he is still peeing in the box (as far as I can tell). Other than that his...

Here is a site that was definitely worth checking out at http://www.gabbyinc.biz!

I suppose I could check Google but I'm here so... Someone at the cat show said that all tri-color (or tri-colour for my British friends) cats are female, or, if male, are sterile. Seems odd but he was showing his purebreds so maybe he knew what he was talking about. Does white count as a color?

Espy (dsh, 1 1/2) is really driving me crazy. He likes reaching up onto shelves, tables, whatever, and knocking anything near the edge onto the floor. Pens, coins, small objects. Crash. Bang. I think he's in the terrible twos early. When not reaching up to knock things off, he climbs up and knocks...

It looks like I'll be moving from New York City to Florida within two months - assuming all goes well with the house sale. My three cats are used to going into my fenced in backyard, but for a few months (at least) they'll have to stay inside once we get to Florida. I won't have a fenced in yard...
