I am so bothered by what I just saw on Insider Edition tonight. A rescue boat was going around looking for people. They were out for hours and couldn't find anyone. There was a dog howver who quickly dived into the water and swam to the boat, he looked so tired, no dry ground near by. The dog...

I have a pet sitting business, and was doing a last minute holiday job for someone, watching their 6 cats. Last minute, as I am moving to a new state on Sunday. The person did not return, and had no intention of returning. Their landlord gave me the cats, as he was going to have them put...

My fiance found 4 baby kittens in the wall of our apartment... he could only get two of them out so far. They're tiny and VERY dirty and ragged and we don't think their mother is anywhere around, so we're trying to figure out what to do with them... but we can't figure out how old they are!! The...

I have searched for help on how to save a kitten about 4 weeks old whose mother was found dead two days ago, but have found very little that is useful. We didn't find the kitten until today. I am in Italy and there is no formula, no kitten bottle, none of the things mentioned in the rescue docs...

Please help! Our three-legged tortoiseshell (orange and black) cat escaped from our porch on Thursday, July 7, and has not been seen since. We are very concerned. If you have ANY information, please email. Thanks very much for your time.

wrote in message ... It has already been the catalyst for one cat developing fatty liver disease which was completely and totally avoidable. If you can't monitor the foster cats, you shouldn't take them in. If the...

Okay. So I get home from work today, looking forward to having a functioning kitchen light for the first time in a couple of months. I was a little confused because it was a ceiling fan, not a replacement of the fluorescent thing that had been up there. And then I looked around and notice...

Ah, the excitement. I've had fosters for months now, and one of them was finally adopted about three hours ago! DLH white w/ orange, 7yo FDC, surrendered for box problems. And she got a home with a senior lady who happens to be a neat freak and was very very excited about the whole process. She's...

So, maybe this will interest others on here, or maybe it's something that's been posted before, but I'm wondering... out of all the people that post here, who has shelter experience (employee or volunteer) and what kind? It'd be fun to know who has similar experiences, and likely beneficial...

We live in the country in northwest Indiana, very small, depressed area, we moved here last fall. A stray cat showed up and gave birth to five kittens somewhere on our property. We discovered them when their eyes were open, and she moved them to our dilapidated barn. This week Mama Cat was hit...

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...

Connecticut Humane Society? Picking up the mail today, I found a pink-hued solicitation letter for the Connecticut Humane Society's Spring Fund Drive, reminding me to send a donation, assuring me that the animals they take in "are cared for in a kind and loving way". This after I had just...

They like human meat!
