Claw clipping question by
Chakolate
It's just me and the two cats, and they have shown a marked reluctance to
hold each other down while I trim claws. So how does one person manage a
claw clip on a reluctant cat?
I have in the past tried to wrap one in a towel (prewarmed for his
comfort) but I can only manage maybe two claws that...

speak. She seems unable to eat or drink. and has to be re-hydrated, x-rayed

Cat toys all around by
Kreisleriana
Did you ever just think that the world just constantly produces
countless new cat toys?
I was awakened last night by the wildest kitty soccer in recent
memory-- sounded like a dozen cats-- with extra scuffling and
sliding-- donuts and burnouts-- on the hardwood floor.
I turned the light on, and...

Concentrated purr session for Tweed? by
Debbie Wilson
Hi everyone,
Many of us here know how effective the power of purrs can be, and how
remarkable things can happen when we as a group purr collectively.
I wondered if we could have a collective purr session at a specified
time tomorrow, to send our concentrated positive purr energies towards
Tweed,...

Oh my God Bruiser's on fire! (he's not hurt) by
John Biltz
I was feeding Bruiser and Maya some tuna just a few minutes ago when
Bruiser brushed up near a lit candle and his fur caught on fire. He
never even realized he was on fire but a patch of fur was burning. It
looked like he had a zippo lighter burning on his flank near his tail.
It went out with a...

Kindle questions - OT by
Joy
Although nothing will ever replace real books for me, it seems to me that an
e-reader would be the best bet for traveling, as opposed to taking a large
number of books along.
Since my kids are taking me to Australia in October, I'm seriously
considering getting an e-reader. So far I'm leaning...

Simon could use some purrs by
Helen Wheels
Hi all
My ginger moggy Simon could use a few of your purrs at the
moment. He’s 20 years old and for the past year has been on
medication and having regular vet checks for chronic renal
failure. The medication has really helped improve his quality of
life up till now, and although he’s been...

Charley went to the bridge today by
Tanada
This morning Jim's parents called and asked if we would drive them and
Charley to the urgent care animal hospital, as Charley was in really
poor shape and they didn't want to put him through any more pain. Rob
and I went with them to the vet (a really cute little lady) and stayed
with him while he...

How will the USA survive? by
Tish
I learned this morning of a terrible thing. The U.S.A. has banned,
yes *banned* the importation of vegemite, to the extent where they are
searching Australians entering the USA and confiscating their precious
vegemite (black gold). This is apparently because it contains added
folate (a B vitamin)...

Update on Frank by
Marina
Well, the vet finally rang me. She'd had a difficult patient before
Frank so it took her this long (it's 3 in the afternoon here) to get
around to him (guesswho's been on tenterhooks the past 6 hours?).
From the new X-rays and the old ones, and examining him while he was
lightly sedated, she made...

Purrs for Dusty please by
TJ and The Dust
I had to take the furbag back to TED today. His eye just isn't healing up.
After 1 week of goop in the eye 3 times a day it is much better but he is still
squinty and the membranes are red. So now TED gave me a script for eye drops.
Had to fill them at my pharmacy. These need to be given FOUR...

3:45AM - I was awakened from a sound sleep (which doesn't happen every
night) to the sound of howling. Buffy?! I turned on the bedside lamp,
grabbed my glasses and my robe and went looking for her.
I have never, ever, heard Buffy howl before. I found her staring out

No matter how small the box... by
Sherry
... Nikki must needs squeeze into it. The photos aren't very good, but I
had to darken them because the flash made evrything glaring white. You
can just make out the edges of the box, though Nikki covers most of them
with her body. ;o)
Why, oh why do they do that?? It's like the smaller the...

Hugo Katt. Emergency TED visit. by
Lisa Katt
Something has happened to Hugo Katt while he was outside, I don't know what.
My guess is he has been in a fight, though there are no regular aggressive
cats around nowadays.
He came limping very slowly like he was a hundred years old and did not let
me pick him up because something obviously hurt....

Would you tell a lie to save a cat? by
Christina Websell
I've just advised someone on facebook to lie to get into a cat hoarders
home.
When Boyfie had his dreadful injury last year, the first thing the vet
wanted to know was "can you afford this?"
Otherwise he'd have been a gonner..
So I said yes.I kind of lied at the time. I knew it would be...
