    The untrappable cats

    I have spent many hours trying to trap one female and 2 males. The female has kittens that were born March 3rd.They were all sick but are getting better. After spending lots of money at the vets. I can't have any more kittens. What can I do differently to catch the cats? They are in a cat fence...

    cat is losing weight fast (a pound in 2 days)

    They said everything checked out okay. Blood work showed he was a little anemic and his white blood count was a little high. Probably from the mouth infection. I asked if he could possibly be blind. He bumps into things and when he comes close to anything it scares him to death. The assistant...

    cat is losing weight fast (a pound in 2 days)

    The vet said he is eating and drinking now, but he still is very weak. We are still waiting on some of the blood work. He is a little anemic and they are waiting for him to have a bowel movement. They want a sample. They thought maybe parasites or a blockage. Really the vet just has no idea. He...

    cat is losing weight fast (a pound in 2 days)

    Everything seems to be checking out okay. He has some infection and is a little anemic. The vet said liver and kidney function is good. He is eating and drinking some now. I can't help but cry. I just read about little Napoleon. I am so sad for Jenny. It is so hard. You do everything and still...

    Napoleon has been poisoned

    I am praying and I know waiting is so hard. I am waiting on a cat 1 vet just gave up on. Good thoughts for you and Napoleon.

    cat is losing weight fast (a pound in 2 days)

    The vet called me Sunday morning and said Casper had eaten bits and drank a little. The hope in this little cats eyes keep me hoping too. Maybe I am crazy but I can't let him go without a fight. I love all my cats even if they hiss and growl at me. They have a right to be scared. They have seen...

    cat is losing weight fast (a pound in 2 days)

    Believe me I have tried everything. When I took him to the vet I was so embarrassed because he had gravy, tuna, cat food and water all over him. I didn't take time to clean him up. Plus he really didn't feel like being disturbed. My little girl and I have been praying like crazy. The vet did ask...

    cat is losing weight fast (a pound in 2 days)

    I am just waiting for blood work to come back. I am so scared. I visited him today so he wouldn't think I had just abandoned him. He looks so sad with his big blue eyes. I am wondering if he can see very good though. He seems to bump into things. I don't know I am confused. Thanks for all the...

    cat is losing weight fast (a pound in 2 days)

    I have had this cat to 2 vets since June. One I have seen twice. He had inflammation in his mouth. He weighs just over 5 lbs. now. He tested negative for leukemia and aids. He is just skin and bones. I have tried everything. Nutri-cal and hand-feeding him. He is a feral cat so he never liked me...

    enclosure advice

    I have my enclosure and a tall building for my cats. The ground is dusty and I was wondering what I could use for covering. I am afraid to use pine shavings because I don't know if it will cause termites to eat the house we just built for the kitties. Also I have a huge litter box, but they are...

    I need a cat enclosure. Any ideas or advice

    I have 14 of my feral cats spayed and neutered and now I need containment. I messaged Hissy because hers looks so wonderful for the cats. They look happy, not miserable. That is what I want. I want the cats to be safe but happy. I found one dead in his shelter about 2 weeks ago. I think he was...

    messy feral cats

    The litter boxes are on complete opposite ends of the room from their food and water. They just act like they are digging for gold when covering their stuff. They are so good to use the boxes which I wasn't sure of at first. I guess I should be happy with that huh? If I could vacuum when the...

    messy feral cats

    First I want to say I didn't know where to put this thread. Sorry but I thought someone might have some ideas. I have several feral cats in a room in my house. They were spayed and neutered. They have kicked litter all over the carpet and then spilled water on top of this. They do this when...
