when we moved we got big dog crates for the cats and put in 2 cats per.. had room for clip on dishes and sm litter box.. They were fine in there and I just walked the dog at rest stops. Just try to find some pet friendly hotels and maybe you can let the cats run around a bit at night (or the...

I have always used the one per cat plus one rule.. actually more. I have 4 cats and 6 boxes.. But that allows me to clean them out a little less which I prefer. I would atlest add one box for the new guy. congrats on the new kitty!!

FIV isn't the Same as FeLV... they do a combo test around here for $30-45 I don't know about where you're at.. FeLV is very contagious and all cats should be tested... I am currently having to deal with finding out one cat from a shelter was FeLV + (Vet said he was probably born w/. it as we got...

I have used triforce opn my cats with no problems, i'll have to ask my vet about any she has heard about bad reactions... It has worked fine for us. I get 3 tubes for $8.99 vs. $14 for one dose of frontline. My cats had a flea outbreak thanks to my dog bringing some in, and this knocked them...

well this cat looks just like him (except he was medium haired) per this website, I guess he is a "Chocolate Cinnamon Tabby" very pretty!!!

he looked like the cat in the foreground... but without any black, and the splotches were much brighter orange, and a even chocolate color instead of brown.

I saw a kitten at a rescue at petsmart a few months back, & I am sort of kicking myself for not adopting him, because I have never seen a cat with the same colors and markings.. I was a medium hair, chocolate color ( no black on him at all), but with thick splotches of dark orange ( darker than...

just a question.. was she screened for FeLV? One of my kitties I adopted from a shelter just tested positive... he never seemed to gain weight and had a mouth infection from the FeLV that made his mouth smell bad. We had him vaccinated but never tested and him testing positive put alot of...

One of our ferals was hit by a car & killed a few weeks ago...we didn't know she was pregnant, but we found 3 kittens a few days after she was killed. I have been bottle feeding them and they have done great. I guess them to be about five weeks.. they are just starting to eat canned iams...

well, I have never had a cat "fake it" and I would have a vet check just to be safe... BUT... I did have a husky mix once who would limp when I let her in the house... and then I would watch her in the back yard playing with the other dog and she would be fine, no limping... but I swear if she...

My choices where I live are limited, as it's a hour drive to a pet store. I can buy Purina One Hairball and Science Diet hairball at the vets.. but I have found a website that doesn't charge an arm and a leg for shipping. Any suggestings on a good hairball food? I have a DSH that grooms all the...

I worm my kitties at home... with a wormer that does tapeworms, hookworms, and roundworms. My vet knows I am poor so she doesn't mind me doing whatever I can at home..The wormer I use has the exact same active ingredients that the wormer from the vet has...

Could you get some kitten milk replacer and see if she will take a little? that will give her a little nourishment. Thats what we gave my kitty Noggle when she stopped eating and drinking... they thought she had a blockage but it turned out to be cancer... but the thing with your cat's pupils...
