a prospective adopter. It seems to me that someone had posted such a
list a while back but I...

Update on old lady cat by
~Echo~
A month or so ago I posted regarding our 17 year old who suddenly became
very wobbly and had trouble keeping her balance. I promised several of you
that I would post back ... so here I am.
I'm pleased to report that she's made a 90% recovery, even though we don't
know what might have caused this....

chas
With Easter round the corner I have noticed lots of lilies in the shops.
Please keep them well away from your cats.
For those who do not know - the pollen of lilies is lethal for cats.

ZailaGrace
Also, The man I got the kitten from obviously wasn't taking great care of
this little kitten (being the reason I couldn't resist taking him home) It

kind of food he had been giving him he tells me "oh, I don't remember"...

We have two cats, once of which is an "excellent" mouser. I write
"excellent" because, while he is great at catching them, he is terrible
at killing them. He brought in a pregnant female field mouse from

The last time we had a mouse...

Hi -
Is there a site which has rated cat foods for nutritional qualities?
My cat suddenly is turning up his nose at what he's eaten for years. I
got him to down a little Deli Cat, but I wonder if it isn't more like a

I think I spoiled him with...
