There is a possibility we will be moving to the states this year and I was wondering what I need to do to get my cats residence (or a visa which will last their lifetime). Do they need to swear allegience somewhere or learn the national anthem? No seriously, apart from getting vaccinations up to...

I picked up a short haired cat at a shelter about 3 years ago. They said she was about 5 years old at that time. Bringing her home in the cat carrier still ranks among the most heart-wrenching experiences of my life. She meowed constantly, sounded totally terrified. After 3 years, she's worked out...

I am faced with the prospect of adopting my mother's 22-year-old cat, Molly. Molly has been an indoor cat all her life, is in excellent health,and is friendly. The adoption would include transporting her 600 miles by car. I'm thinking of getting a dog kennel that would be big enough to carry a...

Greetings. Every day it doesn't rain, I take my ferret for a walk, either with a leash in the city or without a leash in the forest. As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm thinking of getting a cat too, and was wondering about the feasibility of it joining us for the walks. I have seen some...

I have a 10 yr old indoor tortoise shell kitty that I really must place somewhere, and I'm trying to find the best home for her. She still has her claws so could be indoor/outdoor. Thanks!

I have had cats for 60+ years, but this is the first tortoise shell kitten. She seems to be not only hyperactive, but almost beserk in her racing around and climbing anything in sight, etc....Her twin is docile by comparison and sleeps many more hours per day. Are tortoise shell "wired"...

I took in an abandoned kitty approx 4 months ago. She is now 6-7 months old. I was what I thought to be a wonderful owner, purchasing several scratching posts, giving kitty the run of the house. Did NOT have her declawed, got her rabies and distemper vaccine, had her spayed. Now 6 weeks after...

Hi All, I thought that I could pick your brains for ideas on how I can get my 12 year old female cat to accept a spayed 5 month old kitty. The kitten is Pretty Girl (now known as Katie.). I have tried everything & Toma ( the 12 yr old.) won't even consider it. It's making me crazy! Any good ideas...

Hi Cat's got a tick on its neck. How do I get rid of the bugger? It also had the odd flea or several so I gave it a dose of Advantage 80 for Cats. Now no sign of fleas but I can still feel the tick. The cat is very nervous and so I am reluctant to subject it to any stress. Mind you it has its...
