Orphaned Cats - What to Do? by
Billy
My wife is concerned whenever we go on vacation that if something happens to
us, the two cats will be orphaned.
Does anyone have information or guidance on how to protect your pets
(insurance...if you will) to ensure they are cared for if they were
orphaned? Is there any organization that will...

Can anyone identify this insect? by
Zorin the Lynx
Hello folks,
Can anyone identify this insect?
The reason I ask here, is I saw it crawling across my desk, where my cat
was just laying minutes before, and I was just wondering if it was
something that could have been feasting on my poor fuzzy. It's about the
size of a grain of rice and walks...

Cats, water, and chloramine by
Lisa Horton
Recently my local water system changed over from chlorine to
chloramine. Yours may have changed already, or be considering
changing. You may not know that unlike chlorine, there is no way to
effectively remove chloramine (a toxin) from tap water. Chloramine is a
combination of chlorine and...

Cats and screens by
[email protected]
Well, a Google search tells me this is a common problem.
Beautiful weather today, so I put the cat outside.
She decided she wanted to be inside, and in one afternoon completely
destroyed the sliding screen door.
I'll keep reading the Google posts about what to do...just wanted to
vent. :-)

Bansect flea/tick collar by
Knack
So far, no fleas or ticks on any of my four cats who have been wearing
Bansect collars for the past 12 days. They stay outside for about 10-12
hours per day (on non-rainy days) during this time of year.
A Google search of newsgroups didn't turn up anything negative about the use
of this product,...

We are gradually taming and catching a feral cat colony in our backyard.
Our latest "catch" is almost two years old and only warmed up to us just

hypoallergenic foods by
minerva nine
Does anyone know of a canned hypoallergenic food other than Science Diet or
IVD? My allergic cat is having symptoms again, and I think she's acclimated
to her current food, so I want to try her on something else. -- M9

Other food options besides Hill's s/d? by
Missie Tingley
Is there any other dry food that is comparable to Hill's prescription
s/d? One of my cats has a bad UTI and I bought a small bag for her, but
my problem is that I have 7 other cats and they can't eat this food. I
plan on feeding Sasha (the one with the infection) the Hill's food until

Feline Pine scooper tool? by
Priscilla H Ballou
I'm trying to switch my three cats over to Feline Pine litter, for a
variety of reasons, but the tools I have that I used to use to scoop out
clumps and feces have sifter holes in them that are too small for the
Feline Pine pellets to fall through.
Does anyone know of a source of a tool that has...

happy cat not eating by
Sonja C
My 3 year old male cat seems perfectly happy and normal, except that
he hasn't been interested in his food for about 5 days.
Last week, we had a very hot day here and I think Monkey drank some
bad water in a dish in my kitchen sink. That evening he vomitted 3
times and urinated in a couple places...
