FIP by
formerly known as 'cat arranger'
We're taking of two feral kitties and haven't thought
about them infecting our other cats. What is FIP and
how is it transmitted? It's obviously not like HIV
which can only be transmitted through body fluids, so
why to they have such similar names? It is confusing.
The kittens are about 8 wks. old....

kittens getting to VCA by
Wendy
Do you think Chip might be able to get the kittens (how ever many don't get
adopted this weekend) down to VCA on the 24th by 9:30? Dave has to be at
work at 7 so he can't take them down but will be home in time to pick them
back up.

mother was found dead two days ago, but have found very little that is
useful. We didn't find the kitten until today.
I am in Italy and there is no formula, no kitten bottle, none of the things
mentioned in the rescue docs...

Samantha G.
I have rescued an abandoned kitten. I am worried that the eyes are
not open yet at 16 days, even though her ears are up and she is
hearing. Her eyes show no sign of opening. I have had many litters
before and always the eyes are open by a week and a half. Does anyone
know the longest that it...

eyes are open! by
Samantha G.
I just returned from the vet with the kitten (who I have decided to
call Trinity), who is 3 and 1/2 weeks today. She is very underweight
(5.1 oz, she should be 9-11 oz). The good news is that she doesn't
have an infection, but for some reason, one eye is open, her other eye
has not developed as...

Enforcing contracts by
Richard Evans
I work with a rescue group that has a contract signed by all
adopters. One clause states that if the animal is disposed of for any
reason it *must* come back to our group. We've had several instances

formerly known as 'cat arranger'
I took two cats into a local shelter. One was a stray

said that we could get them both neutered and that wouldn't
be a problem.
They came home with a large chunk cut out of their ears. The
stray looks bad but the friends Siamese looking cat...

Suddenly, a kitten! by
Priscilla Ballou
This afternoon my stupid neighbors caught a feral kitten whose mother
would probably have come back and gotten it if they'd left it alone.
After it was caught, who knows if she would? And then they didn't want
the kitten! One family said "no" to their daughter who wanted it for a
pet and the...
