I have two of my own, Bandit and Ditto, a Burmese/Siamese mix and a straight Meezer. Then all the rescues I have at my house: 6 kittens (10 weeks old), their mother, a pregnant female ready to burst, a 12 year old Russian Blue and a FeLV+ guy. So, that's not so bad, just 12, down from the 19 I...

Sheesh, I wanna come to your homes! I had a bowl of Campbell's Curly Noodle Soup. LOL Jealous?

Awww, it's a threesome kitty-style! Too cute ~ thanks for sharing!

Sending purrs and prayers to Jean and Millie and that their time left together be filled with lots of love and happy memories! (I've read that the herb Ashwagandha has been very promising in treating cancer among FeLV+ cats.)

IMOM is a WONDERFUL organization! I'm so happy you found them and were able to get your sweet guy the help he needed! Thanks for sharing! Rachel

Thanks for heads up! I placed a request to add our rescue. It would be great to put this in our newsletters.

My FIV rescues get mixed with my own boys as long as they aren't aggressive and a bite wound is an issue. FIV doesn't spread like FeLV does and many people have households with both positive and negative FIV cats living together. My recent FIV guy, Mr. Dobbs was a stray. He was the biggest...

Awww, congratulations! It's definitely a great idea for them to be with you, even for a week. Kittens accommodate to new situations faster than adults and with all the love and attention they'll be getting from you, they'll make progress. Can't wait to see pictures! Rachel

It looks like ringworm. Have you taken your cat to the vet since this started?

Have you tried adding some probiotics to their food? Which type of bacteria are they affected by? Spirochetes just implies the shape of the bacteria (a spring-like shape). Many forms of bacteria are spirochetes, like borrelia burgdorferi which causes Lyme Disease or leptospira interrogans...

They're totally normal kittens. This is what they do, hiss and growl and cause a fuss when they meet someone new. In rescue, once everyone is vaccinated I toss litters together. It's good for their socialization. Some kittens will romp with members from another litter immediately as though...

Soft Claws are very inexpensive if you buy them online. A set of 40 is usually around $12.99 and if applied to the front claws only the package will last you about 4 months.

I use Soft Claws and highly recommend them as an alternative to declawing. They are a learning experience. Whenever I have someone interested in a kitten that mentions declawing, I slap on a set and educate them. Here's a few tips I give my adopters: 1.\tDon’t get frustrated. It takes...

Oily coats are sometimes an indicator of diabetes and hyperthyroidism, both which can occur after pregnancy. Oily coats can also be an indicator of a poor diet. I would certainly request a blood panel be done to ensure nothing else is going on.
