Aha! No wonder that one photographer having submitted the photo of the blonde puma to the Pantera Institute wished to remain anonymous. The pic was fake. Well, not exactly, it was an actual real live puma on that photo, thing just was that it hadn't been taken here in the Netherlands, but somewhere...

In my naievety I thought this was going to be a pic of a recovering cat. Just what do these people get out of posting this rubbish? -- Sandra

An itty bitty guy, fluffy tail and runny eye. Someone dumped him by the roadside, But he's gotten by. Where's a hound to track the dumper down? And where's a lion to kill the clown? (s)eleaticus ee-lee-AT-i-cus

Hello all, We have three cats (7yrs, 13yrs, 18yrs) that recently started eating more than usual. All three have grown huge in less than three weeks -- far more than the extra food should allow and all at the same time. They are not just fatter -- they are taller, longer and bigger-boned. I have...

If you see a cat , DON'T touch it! It's tail may be full of TNT and once you touch it - KABOOOM ! So better call the bomb squad when a cat is near !

Has anyone ever had their cats shipped cross country by plane? What were your experiences? Thanks NR

I'm a first time cat owner, and I'm not used to the smell of the food, litter, and the stuff they dump in the litter. Can anyone recommend an air-purifier that eliminated odors? Is hepa better than electrostatic, etc? Dom

Can anyone recommend a good air cleaner/filter for removing litter box smell? Background: I have two cats and one of them refuses to cover her "deposits" in the box. I clean the box twice a day and one of the cats refuses to use a littermaid automatic box. Hence, I have litter box smell between...

The Pantera institute has had success in their request to the government. Today's paper said that minister Veerman (of Nature) will go to the mayor of Ede (the town housing the nature park where the puma is in) to get the puma-hunters more time to capture it alive. They had been given until today,...

A year ago, we adopted a male and female, 4ish months old, both fixed, brother and sister, and have raised them as indoor only pets. The female has always been playful, cuddly, and when she gets "stuff" stuck in the fur around "that" area, she doesn't put up much of a fuss when we clean her...

I took in a 10 year old cat who was fine for about a week but now he just wants to stalk and beat up on my other cat that I've had for 10 years. Any advice would be appreciated. Pat

Sorry to cross post but I have a bit of a dilema. My cat is now 15 and a half, and although she still eats, drinks, toilets, and sleeps, she does little else. I know she has some discomfort from her lower back, and probably kidney problems. Other than that and her increased laziness she seems...

We recently adopted a cat from an acquaintance who is about to move out of state and cannot take her cats with her. We live in an urban setting --San Francisco-- and have a house with a small, fenced in back yard. When we've had a cat in the past, we would often leave the back door of the house...

Hi, I'm hoping to become a cat owner soon, and I'm looking for some advice in choosing my new cat or cats. I've never owned a cat before, but I'm an animal lover and I have kept dogs and rats in the past, so I'm aware of the commitment involved in keeping a pet. I live in a large three-bedroomed...

Greetings all: First, I apologize if this is the wrong group to post this in. I'm not going to crosspost trying to figure it out though, so if it's in the wrong group and someone wants to send me the right group name via email, I'd appreciate it. Now, on to business, as it were. My husband and...

Hello, I'm looking to solicit some advice concerning adopting a cat. Here's the situation I am currently in. -I have never owned a cat before in my entire life. We've always had dogs, and I always thought I wouldn't have the patience to walk something every day, I don't think the other tenants in...
