I work at a cat rescue and someone just brought some cats to me at my house.. They were let loose after their owner died, and came to live with these people. Anyway, i noticed one of the cats, a gorgeous medium-longhair dilute calico, had a bulge to her upper lip on one side. I took a look at...

Watching her give birth sounds like a fun thing, but i hope you are up to the expense of spaying and neutering both her and all of her kittens when the time comes, or you are going to be absolutely inundated. Also, be prepared that some of them may not survive..

By expressing my opinion i am in no way hindering her ability to do whatever she wants.

Keisha -- if you don't spay now, then you will have up to ten or more cats to get spayed in neutered in a few months. If your mom is willing to abort in some circumstances and not others then maybe she should question her beliefs.. Either it is wrong or it's not. Are you going to keep ALL...

Yes, i agree with Booktigger.. PLEASE get her spayed asap. A healthy animal is killed every 6.5 seconds in this country through euthanization because people let their cats and dogs have 'just one litter.' It is really unfair to the existing cats and kittens out there.. Plus it is beneficial...

I have no idea.. But we also had an indoor/outdoor cat who lived to be 21! She was always Friskies and the like. In fact, her name was Friskey..

The one on the left is Marlow. The other one, Juniper, passed away over the weekend..

No this kitten had lost his mother and we are manually feeding and pooping him.. He finally did poop the other day, and had a weird episode of seizures later on, but seems fine now.. You know how these babies are.. THey are so fragile.. Anyway i hope he keeps pooping. You could be right...

That just seems too obvious... This is an experienced vet (20 - 30 years experience).. It's gotta be something else.. Here's a pic.

We have a FLV+ cat who has developed over the course of his stay at our vet's some very red, very hard scabbing. It does not seem to bother him but it is nasty. He has some hairloss in the area as well. It is ONLY on his belly. He doesn't really bother it. Our vet has been treating it as an...

This kitten has not pooped as far as we know for it's whole life. It's about 3 weeks old, very skinny.. The vet did a q-tip check and there was fecal matter on it, so no congenital defect. His brother pooped, but then again his brother just passed away last night. This one is not pooping...

Keisha -- I know you don't live near Baltimore. Let us worry about transport! Can you email me at alleycatrescue at gmail dot com to continue this conversation?

Dear Keisha (or anyone else for that matter), If you are still looking for barn cats, i would be glad to hook you up with some! I know of several youngsters, in fact, that need to be relocated from a bad neighborhood in Baltimore. Let me know if you are interested.. Lizzie Alley Cat Rescue
