I took in two semi-feral kittens, not related, in July, when they were about 10 weeks old. They were in a cage for about a month, then moved into a bathroom (with other kittens, all of which are adopted in the meantime because they were friendly & social) for the next two months. I had hoped to get...

I came across this article in another newsgroup, I imagine most of you might have already seen this but it was news to me. The only reason this selfish prick is apologizing is because of politics. Sorry for the harsh words but just the thought of someone as cruel and selfish as him possibly...

So my cat was about 20 years old and the thing looked like it was in agony. I have been walkin reported to be walking sideways lately and loosing a ton of hair. Upon inspecting the clumps of hair that were falling out, I saw that they were due to these red lesions on the cats back. For fear of some...

A number of foods are being recalled because animals are getting sick and dying; kidney failure is the most prevalent problem and they are not sure what is causing it yet. Here is the complete list of cat foods: http://www.menufoods.com/recall/product_cat.html Dog foods:

She survived the anaesthetic like a cat half her age, which is exactly what I'm coming to expect from her. Nothing wrong with her mouth except some very tartar-covered teeth and couple of ulcers which we can't do much about. She's thriving on her kidney medication, I swear this cat gets more...

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 are learning a hard lesson. We have a ringworm problem out of control at our shelter. Instead of being proactive and euthanizing the 4 that originally had it, we are now having to euthanize 20 per our municipality's orders "because of public safety". We have had some Program donated to...

Here's one of three shelters I made for a small group of cats we have been taking care of for the past year. We've been lucky in that we were able to adopt one out, and another seems to be giving us the hint: ) The inner chambers are Omaha Steaks shipping containers found in the trash. The one...

For a kitten that is obtained privately and has NOT had all the shots, checkups and altering, what can one expect to pay to have that done.? If I adopt through a shelter I pay them $70-100 and the kitten as everything done or payed for already. So I was wondering about the cost for...

It's been pretty much business as usual around my house, until I took in my last foster cat. Mina was turned in at my vet with the request 'euthanize as we are moving out of state'. Mina is two years old, so the vet called me to ask whether I could take her and put her up for adoption. They...

Well, the colony I've been caring for for the last ten-or-so years seems to be losing its population pretty dramatically. I'm not sure what's up, although there have been many coyote sightings in nearby communities. I've only ever found evidence of a coyote attack on the cats once,...

Hello, We have a sick purebred Siamese cat in our shelter who will be euthanized tomorrow unless someone steps forward to save him. He has a severe URI and is currently at the Vet. He needs to be adopted and removed from the shelter, where he got his illness, so he can get well. email me if...

We have two sick cats that keep throwing up. It started a day and a half ago. One day after we feed them some tuna in oil. Our three other cats turned their noses up to it and they our fine.

Hello, We have a 5 year old spayed female who has a history rhinitus which is caused by a cyst in her sinus. We cannot afford the price of an endoscophy $5000.00 to have the cyst removed. A couple of times a year she gets a sinus infection which is treated with antibiotics and she recovers. ...

this is by far the most bizarre article. it seems to say that fur trim is attractive to people who are attracted to women's genitals, and so you should wear fur if you want to be attractive weird Jeannette Walls: The fur is flying in a squabble between feminists and

Hello, Unfortunately it has come to this: reaching out to the public in urgency for this little kitty-cat that me and my roommates have grown to love... Here's the gist of the situation: Over the course of, say, 8 months or so, a neighborhood kitty braved our porch for some offered food and...
