Several years ago we took in a pregnant stray. She had five kittens of which two survived and we ended up having to bottle feed them. For those of you who have bottle fed kittens you know it's job. By the time we were weaning them we were totally attached to them. It was also at this time it...

I would definitely get prices from other vets. As someone else said just get a copy of her records and labs from the current vet. I think the price he wants to charge you for the extraction is beyond ridiculous. One of my senior cats just had three teeth extracted last week and I paid $115...

Metronidazole is also a staple in my house. My pharmacy compounds it into a capsule and I have no problems giving it to my kitty but he is easy to pill. Right now I have another cat with a UTI and have given him 3 rounds of antibiotics and he still has the infection. The reason being I can't...

Goodness that is expensive. Maybe you should talk to another vet and see what they would charge. I say this because my kitty has something similar...a cyst in his ear. He digs at it a lot and it has been bleeding. He is having surgery next week to remove the cyst, have a tooth pulled, teeth...

A word of warning....check the person's feedback before you buy the cat trees! My friend got two of them from the same seller back in mid-Dec. One was okay but the other was missing the base. Since she doesn't know much about ebay I have been handling it for her and let me tell you it has...

Your kitties are beautiful. I am sooo in love with Tiggy. He has the cutest nose....it's so kissable!!!

I am soooo jealous. I live in Wilmington and of course all we are getting is rain. It NEVER snows here!!

I am so sorry your SIL is going through this. My Mom had a bleeding stroke 10yrs. ago and they had to surgically remove the clot. It was a rough few days with complications but she did survive it....so don't give up hope. Your SIL and family will be in my prayers.

I have heard of this but never used it. Not meaning to hijack your thread but I have a cat with severe skin allergies. Nothing is working. I've tried everything and he is getting worse. Could the Transfer Factor help him? I am willing to try anything at this point.

I am so jealous. Have always wanted to knit but just can't do it. I bought a book and tried to teach myself and cannot get the hang of it. They offer a class at a yarn shop here and I think I'm going to try again. BTW your scarves look great!!

It never fails to amaze me how mean people can be to animals. She's such a beautiful girl. Thank goodness she has you to take care of her. She will be in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.

I'm so, so sorry. What a horrible tragedy. You will be in my prayers.

A while back one of my cats had a seizure and afterwards I was cleaning his face off and he went crazy and bit and scratched me really bad. The bite was very painful and on my knuckle so I went to the doctor. Besides giving me an antibiotic he told me to soak the bite and scratches in epson...

I had to do this recently with my kitty. Because of a liver shunt he isn't allowed regular cat food as it causes him to have seizures. Needless to say he got into something and I called the vet and she recommended the peroxide. I was uneasy doing it but within 5 minutes of the first dose up...

I love it too!! Have checked HBO's website and there is no date for the second season. I can't wait!
