Old George by
Marek Williams
I finally got around to taking a pic of Old George and I put it on a
personal web page. The link is
http://home.comcast.net/~johnxj/index.html
In case anyone is interested in seeing the old guy lying comfortably
next to me in the computer room. :)
I hope I did this right. I'm not very smart...

Euthanize or don't? by
Marty
Hello, I have a few questions:
How do pet rescue places that don't euthanize keep up with the amount
of cats that come in? Do they stop accepting cats after a certain
amount of time? Is this preferable to euthanizing?
Thanks,
Marty

bottle feeding procedure by
Aphrodite's Cat
Hello again.
My 5 foster kittens seem to be needing bottle feeding (just on this side of
3 weeks old, basically). Would like to make sure I'm doing it right.
Right now, I'm wrapping the kitten in a tea towel and holding the bottle at
a 45° angle. Doesn't seem like a lot of air bubbles are...

I've spotted a homeless kitty.... by
Marty
Hello,
Behind the apartments I live in, I frequently see a small black cat
with no tags or collar roaming around. I have tried to approach it to
bring it to a shelter, but it is too scared to let me come close
enough. Does anyone have any advice about how to catch this cat? Even
though I can't...

Umbrage by
[email protected]
Everyone at work knows I am the one who feeds the cats on the grounds.
It's practically a joke. I spend about $300/month on food and supplies
for these animals. I have, with the help of others NOT in my workplace,
spent close to $2000 trapping, testing, vaccinating, altering and
releasing these...

What to Do - Abandoned Kitty by
Curtis Fox
A number of weeks ago, we found this very little kitty meowing in our
backyard by our shed. It looks like the offspring of a wild cat we had
living under our shed last winter (Minnesota, can wild cats survive the
winters here?). Days passed and the kitty was looking very thin and weak so
we...

Semi-feral kittens: separate or keep together by
Nord Stjern
I took in two semi-feral kittens, not related, in July, when they were
about 10 weeks old. They were in a cage for about a month, then moved
into a bathroom (with other kittens, all of which are adopted in the
meantime because they were friendly & social) for the next two months.
I had hoped to get...

gone. :o( by
Aphrodite's Cat
It turns out that my fosters had an upper respiratory infection- so, today I
had to turn them over to the SPCA to get put down. If treated, it could
have been a total cure or someone could have a sickly cat for the rest of
their lives.
RIP Idwal- light ginger male, all 4s stuck in the food...

Kitten Poop! by
Karen M.
To my fellow feral caretakers, have a question:
I posted pics recently of my two lovely semi-feral kittens, Miss
Marmalade (Marmie) and Harley. They are doing great for the most part,
except for one little problem - Marmie is not going in the litter box.
She goes *around* the litter box, but not...
