    NE Ohio foster home needed!

    Okay, I'm desperate. My neighbor's have an unspayed female cat who lives outside 24/7. She has had 4 litters in 1 year. I've taken in all the litters, fostered them, and adopted them to loving homes. I've given the "owners" step-by-step info about how to get their cat spayed at the low-cost...

    What about?

    I'm glad she has a name. Kiki is very cute and I'm sure it fits perfectly!

    Don't forget the "unadoptables"

    I understand how you feel. I work with a rescue and we constantly get people emailing and calling asking if we can take their animals. The thing that bothers me is that so many people in rescues or other animal fields that are contacted about taking these animals refuse to take the animals...

    Five Cats !!?? OH MY!!

    It's such a kind thing for you to take in two of these babies, especially the ones that need the most tlc! The price is a little steep. Perhaps you could tell the man that it might be difficult to get rid of the kittens if he charges that much. As has been mentioned, he should charge something...

    I met a nice lady and her nice cats today

    I'm involved in a few online animals communities. I'm used to everyone there being extra compassionate towards animals, and it's rare that I experience it in "real life." Last week a stray cat had kittens in the garage of a house nobody was living in. I know who owns the house, so I called them...

    don't tell me cats aren't smart!

    Aww, that's so cute. My cat is that way with the alarm clock. Now the other cats are following her lead and I'll open the door to 5 cats sitting outside the door, competing to get into the room and onto the bed first!

    What about?

    I think I prefer Bindi to Bendy, but I understand wanting your cat's name to have a reason behind it (all of mine do). Either one is very cute! Let us know which one you pick.

    Where did you get your cat's name?

    I hope nobody will think I'm being a snob, but I don't want to tell the names of my cats!! Haha, I know it's silly, but I just hate when anyone copies off me. I've already had someone steal one of my cat's names. I go through a great deal of trouble to pick out the perfect name for my cat and...

    Don't forget the "unadoptables"

    Thank you for bringing attention to the "unadoptable" kitties. I try to spread the word about adopting these poor babies, but nobody listens to me. Everyone wants a cute, tiny kitten. I try to remind them that a kitten isn't a tiny kitten forever! Anyway, I've fostered several litters of kittens...

    Should my kitties get the FeLV booster?

    Have you talked to your vet about it? Obviously he/she isn't against the vaccine. Maybe you could call another vet in your area and ask for their opinion on it, since they obviously have more authority on the subject than most of us here. My vet discourages against the vaccine. It can sometimes...

    Kittens With Fleas... What to do?

    I don't think I saw anyone mention this, but DO NOT USE OVER THE COUNTER FLEA PRODUCTS! Stuff like Sergeants and Hartz is very unsafe, especially for tiny kittens. Don't even put flea collars on them. It seems that the Dawn has worked okay for now, but it's very likely that you'll notice more...

    How do you get started in fostering?

    Yeah, you don't happen to be in NE Ohio, do you? I'm desperate for a foster!! Wherever you are located, I definitely encourage you to get involved in fostering. There are so many kitties out there that would benefit so much by being taken into a temporary loving home. Most good rescues will...
