nothing in the way of companionship to your life?

Help! no-kill cat shelters near Methuen, Mass? by
Stacia
In another forum I read, a guy recently posted about his cat having
problems vomiting. He adopted a 10 year old cat recently and the cat
vomits daily. The vet apparently said it was more like regurgitation,
but beyond that, I have no other info.
It sounds a little like the guy hasn't been doing...

leases for cats? by
bge
My brother has an indoor cat and lives in san francisco. What do people
think about letting the cat outside with a lease on? They dont let the
cat out at all and this seems like a good idea to get the cat out.
Anyone here take their cats out for walks with a lease?

Alternative for cat collar? by
The Other Mike
Well, after 3 second opinions from various vets we had to have our
cat's tail amputated (1/2 way down). After going through the surgery
and anesthesia, he came through just fine. Our problem is that after
all the trauma he's been through, he now has to wear a cat collar so
he doesn't lick or bite...

feeding dilemma by
Paul O.
I have been feeding Dufus Hills XD canned, with a little XD dry as a treat
for quite a while now, as he loves the dry. He has stopped eating the
canned. I then changed to Renal LP to see if the change would help him eat.

Broken tooth by

Matilda has a broken upper canine (at the gum line) and has an appointment
with a feline dentist first thing Monday morning.
From my readings it would appear that a surgical extraction will be in
order, either that or a root canal. Poor Matilda!
Does anyone have any input when it comes to these...

Having had a recent run of baby possum interactions with the boys, I
figured that there must be an adult around. Sure enough, yesterday
Espy was sitting on the back wall in the backyard, looking intensely
