Although not exactly about feral cats, I thought this might still be in the spirit of the day: THIS OLD CAT I'm getting on in years, My coat is turning gray. My eyes have lost their luster, My hearing's just okay.

Hi, We have been feeding feral cats for some time now and more recently trapping and neuter/spaying them. Four weeks ago a mother had 5 kittens in the garage. Near the time they were able to walk she relocated them under a neighbors house. I expected to see them again when she brought them over to...

I found this group while searching for someone to help me. I hope someone can either put me in touch with an organization that can find homes or at least help me find homes for these cats. Let me explain. About a year ago, my husband and I were planning to purchase a duplex farm house on seveal...

Hello :) I have two very sweet kitties that are in need of new homes. Both are spayed and easy to handle (for claw clipping or whatever.) I imagine both would be good around kids, but don't know for sure--I don't have any kids. ;) Portia is a long-haired tortishell who LOVES people. She's a...

I don't know what to do with a cat I picked up three months ago. Harold & Maude were found at a local restaurant dumpster this winter as small kittens. They were taken in by one of the employees, who called me in March because they were still not letting her touch them. We caught Harold by putting...

I have found a kitten about a month ago and I need to find a home for it quick, as I have two ferrets and am unable to keep him much longer. I don't have a car and can't around very easily. It is a very nice kitten, he looks to be about 6 months old, a male, and a white and grey tabby. He's very...

This evening our beloved cat had to be put to sleep. We had no warning signs, the vet told us he had cancer, he was only 8 and there is nothing we could have done to prevent it or cure it. He was like one of the kids and the family are in deep deep shock. Some people would wait before...

Any one got an idea how to help a nervous cats stomach.Been down the usual route of starving for 24 hours but it soon seems to revert. We used to give our dog Kaolin mixture which worked a treat.Can modern things like imodium etc be used or is there anything else. (Tried eggs but not too popular...

Please give my kittys a loving home for the holidays. I have multiple slerosis and severe back pain which is becoming worse and incapacitating me. I can no longer care for my adult cats and pray I can find them homes before they have to go to the shelter.. Leoni - a scrappy and cute female, gray...

Hi! I found my cat Sassy tonight! She came out this evening, she apparently had been hiding under my deck all night and day. Of course that was the first place I looked, and called her name, it was very dark under there, and I didn't see her, and she didn't answer! So I went out tonight...

I am passing on some info from several rescue groups that might be of interest. I have not tried it yet. If you try it, please report back your experiences. .. I am trying something new here that you might be interested in trying. A cat foster mom told me that she uses ground corn chicken...

Hi everyone, about 12 weeks ago while I was at an Estate sale, I noticed a very pretty cat on the front porch walking back and forth like it was hungry. I inquired with the person conducting the sale and she told me the people accross the street moved out of their house and abandoned the cat. She...

My Aunt recently passed away and left 6 cats behind. Three are socialized and three are ferrel's (1 is about to have a litter any day). Does anyone know of any Rescue centers that will take all 6 cat's. We are looking to have them adopted out if possible or to live their lives in a safe environment...

-- Hello, this is my first time posting to this group. I usually post and help Samoyed Rescue. Every since I helped my last Samoyed Rescue cross over to the Rainbow Bridge this past May, I've been loaded with stray cats. At one time this summer, we were feeding about 8 of them. All adult. Except...

Hello, This my first post to this group, so please bear with me if this is an all too common thread. After purchasing my first house about six months ago, A friend who was moving out of state offered me this cute little bundle of fur that she was a foster mom to. I took one look at her and said...

Well, four years later and I still have the little guy, except he's no so little anymore. He has grown to 22 pounds and his a great cat. He gets along great with my other two cats and the little dog we added to the family. Sep 1 2000, 7:11 pm show options Newsgroups:...

Hi! I am new to this board and was wondering if any of you have seen this new flash movie with the cat meowing Jingle Bells. It's hilarious and I know the organization that did it is really good with cats. Have any you seen...

I help maintain (i.e. feed and shelter) a small colony of ferals in our backyards in Roslindale. In the past few weeks we've had a couple of unneutered cats join the regulars. My neighbor reports her property is getting sprayed. We had help in the past from a woman who was an excellent trapper...

I really don't think this guy is going to eat the rabbit. He just knows that a lot of people will pay him to spare the bunny and he's willing to sicken others to get his money. -- Message posted via http://www.catkb.com

Hey all, My "neighbor" recently abandoned his "outside cat" because he got two dogs and the cat doesn't like dogs. So, we decided to take the cat in our house and we got it fixed, rabies shots, etc. The only problem is the cat still likes the outside. We have another cat that really won't run far...
