    Waiting for the vet to open..

    OMG, I have always wanted a white cat...but one has never happened upon my doorstep (which is how I usually end up with my cats LOL) That little boy is just a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e!!!!

    Kitten's First Heat

    Breeders who use a 'trick tom' for that purpose aren't using a neutered tom, they are using a tom who has had a vasectomy because neutering takes away the sex hormones necessary for a tom to have sex. With a vasectomy, they are still intact sexually, just sterile. Although some neutered toms...

    Terrible death of my cat - Hartz warning

    I am so sorry for your loss. I wish someone would stop Hartz from distributing such known dangerous products. If you Google Hartz+death, you get over a million results. This is an ongoing problem and I can't believe they haven't been held accountable for the many, many deaths and serious...

    Help!

    Unless you have had her recently examined by a vet for this reason you cannot rule out a health issue, so that is where I would start. I hate to say that because it's not what anyone wants to hear (expense, etc). But it really is sound advice and your efforts will be futile if it is a health...

    Kitten's First Heat

    I would keep them separated. Even if he doesn't 'hurt her', the stress of his constantly doing that isn't great for either of them. And she needs to be in a room that has no access to any outside doors, so putting her in a room by herself until she can be spayed will only make it easier to...

    Found a cat about to have kittens, have no clue what to do!

    I will also echo the thanks for taking her in sentiment!! I would definitely not give her the full reign of your home. A few reasons: 1) Her being exposed to your other cat (yes, she needs to be cleared of any communicable diseases before introduced to your cat-- many cats with Felv, for...

    Kitten update....

    Aw, they are all beautiful! I also wouldn't give the woman another chance. It's far too much stress on a kitten to be moved over and over again. Honestly, if someone cannot handle a kitten for a few days without returning it, they really are not ready to be a cat owner.

    Kittens born and doing great

    There is something else that stood out when I reread your other thread. You mention that your cats are indoor cats, but use a cat door to go outside to use the bathroom. A cat is not an indoor cat if they go outside unsupervised, ever. I mention this because cats who are intact and also...

    Kittens born and doing great

    Hi, I read your other thread for more background and I wanted to offer my thoughts and insight. First of all, I am so sorry about your previous loss of the first litter. There is nothing more frustrating and sad than watching kittens who appear healthy fade quickly and die, especially a whole...

    Medical mystery- cat keeps injuring her tongue

    She definitely is alert now, the only real issue is that the vet wants her to do as little chewing as possible so that her teeth don't have as much chance to rub against the wound and stitches. So I am liquefying her wet food with some water in the blender. Glad to hear that worked for...

    Medical mystery- cat keeps injuring her tongue

    Thanks for all of your responses, I'm going to mention all of them to my vet and see what he thinks. Her cut doesn't appear to be the kind a string would make, I think I can rule that out. And her jaw/teeth alignment is perfect. There is almost always someone home here. I don't think...

    Medical mystery- cat keeps injuring her tongue

    Hi, I have been searching the net trying to find any information regarding why my cat keeps injuring her tongue and I keep coming up empty. I thought maybe someone else might either have personal experience with this or know more about something like it. Lilo is 3, exclusively indoors- NEVER...

    pregnant???

    (have been gone for a long time, but I thought I would jump back in here) First of all, bless you for taking her in! To answer your question, she absolutely could be pregnant. It's probably more likely than not, given what you describe. My suggestions: 1) Awesome that she will be seeing a...
