I would like to give this a try with my cats. I have urinating and some territorial problems. I already use the feliway diffusers. Does anyone have a brand of phermone collar they would recommend?

Thank you ShadowsRescue. I did do a google search and most of what I read only addressed nausea and vomiting. Well, the lethargy helps as she is confined to the garage for 8 more days!

She will be on the medicine for 10-14 days. Then one week later, she returns for her booster shots and I have to bring in a stool sample to be sure both the hookworm and lung worm are gone. Yuck. I hate helminths.

My little feral has to be treated for lungworm. I had her examined, vaccinated and spayed on Wednesday ( during the surgery the vet discovered she was already early in her second pregnancy). Anyway,  she is on day 3 of Fenbendazole. I give her the medicine in her breakfast. I have noticed the...

Update on Chloe: She is doing really well. She is taking her medicine in her food. What a huge relief that is. Chloe really does not like that e-collar and tries to get it off. I hope slowly she will get used to it. Being in the garage is boring for her, but I try to visit her several times a...

Well, she was in the early stages of her second  pregnancy. The vet estimates her age at 7 months! She must be a bit older because she had that one kitten this summer. She is a very tiny kitty.  My vet ideally wants her to wear that collar shield for 2 weeks in a confined area. I may be able to...

I trapped her late yesterday afternoon. She is a little clever. Twice she went in the cage to eat and did not step on the trip plate! I was more clever. I stayed close to the trap and when she entered that second time without stepping on the plate, I quickly unlatched the door and it slammed...

I am going to try and trap her on Monday at dinner. then take her to the vet for vaccines, check up and neutering.. Wish me luck. I have been gradually moving her food into the Have a Hart trap ( the opening is twist tied so it won't accidentally shut). I have the food right up close to the trip...

Oh, I love the idea of the tent like structure. I was thinking about a tent. We live in Georgia where the winters are not brutally cold. A tent with some hay and a heating pad underneath just might be the ticket. I also could see if my handyman can cut out second opening in the doghouse. The...

So, maybe another stray will show up to keep her company. I feel so guilty leaving her outside in all kinds of weather. I have an empty doghouse for shelter but she doesn't use it. I think she would prefer a shelter that is more open and easy to escape from. She seems very alert and attuned to...

Hi, I live in a city suburb and we are surrounded by woods and a creek. I have taken care of 3 stray cats 2 years ago. They would show up together for feeding time. Eventually, I was able to get 2 of them to come inside.( they joined my 3 indoor house cats and all 5 of them are happy indoor...

Thank you for all the great ideas. I will try the water in a larger bowl and the pedestal table.  I have not seen the stray today. He or she seems to show up every other day or so. He or she also has no particular time when he comes around. He eats, then trots off into the woods. I think I may...

I have a stray cat that I am feeding. If I put food out at night, sometimes possums will eat it. The wet food attracts ants like crazy. Anyone have a solution for keeping the ants and possums away?
