I've spotted a homeless kitty.... by
Marty
Hello,
Behind the apartments I live in, I frequently see a small black cat
with no tags or collar roaming around. I have tried to approach it to
bring it to a shelter, but it is too scared to let me come close

bottle feeding procedure by
Aphrodite's Cat
Hello again.

Euthanize or don't? by
Marty
Hello, I have a few questions:
How do pet rescue places that don't euthanize keep up with the amount
of cats that come in? Do they stop accepting cats after a certain
amount of time? Is this preferable to euthanizing?
Thanks,
Marty
