For now, I'd give her half a benadryl capsule broken open on her fav dish. If she eats it, and calms, wrap her in a towel and carefully calmly CLIP (no electric shaving!) away the fur in bits as you can expose pieces. Talk to her normally, even if she gets a hand out and rips you open as you...

This is ridiculous. Not you for being concerned, but having to go through such worry for something like this. Do you have groomers in your local area? Call them and explain the issue. many groomers work right in the same clinic with vets so they can sedate animals who give them a hard time...

I have six. I would like to have five. We have a three bedroom home with garage and fenced backyard and a cat enclosure outside. The two adult queens both are kept separated from the others except for one queen who can spend time with my neuter boy without losing her mind. Exposure to other...

That is a great cat!

Hubby is a man's man-bar of green soap and a big bottle of shampoo. I have a bath puff, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, razor, shaving cream, hot oil treatments, once a week special conditioner. Our medicine cabinets are another story, he actually puts medicine in his (sheesh-how weird is...

Be glad. Not only do my bengals not bring me anything, they steal my stuff. It's usually funny but I really am going to have to launch an intense search for my pink gold wedding band encircled with pink diamonds... In the past, it was always my female kitties who brought me "gifts" . i had a...

Did you find a place for this girl yet? I am not a permanent home but I am willing to provide care for the random cat until they are placed. Please be aware we have crazy activity happening here! Tiny children, puppies, many bengal kitties....right now I have had no takers on my offer of foster...

Ha ha! I am a horrible pepsi addict and drink many bottles a day. I now automatically thump the top-yes, the small cap, right on the flat top, thump it with your knuckle a few times- before opening. This prevents most overflows.

Renovia- I have no F generation bengals but they all have distinct LOUD sounds they use regularly to coomunicate. I think Nial described it the other day, quite graciously, as "trills and chirps" lol. We have sounds here like imps in hell trying to escape the devil's clutches...at all hours of...

Oh seagulls are tough old birds (sorry couldn't resist) I grew up in Florida. Saw tons of healthy adult gulls missing feet, legs, eyes. he'll be fine.

Christmas barbie-or is she called Holiday barbie? Also always wanted a Lite brite or, yes, the EZ bake oven. Vaguely recall lusting after the "spiralgraph"(?) my older sisters had. I got barbie's kid sister Skipper one year. It wasn't really the same. Anyone here a therapist?

I'm a budgie fan too! Currently I have two- a male English blue dutch pied and a female american olive green with tons of black barring. I do not provide a nest box so have no babies and have no plans for such. I have only ever had one budgie who was an egg layer-a blue american hen. My...

I want to clarify something about baby birds I posted so everyone doesn't think I am "mean and hateful" Lol. I advocate the elimination of both english sparrows and starlings from the US. it will never happen, of course, but both of these birds do more than merely take over niches formerly...

I have reserved a hotel room, paid for the cage and entry fees, added pricey special beading to my cage curtains and planned for the addition of my two kiddos under 2 years old! So there ya have it. If anyone here is going and plans to drive through hampron roads, virginia and wants the role of...

I'm in Virginia. After pricing around, I had my male bengal pet boy neutered and a rabies shot for 225. That was mid-range for here. I am always astonished at the folks who are still getting neuters/spays for under a 100 bucks. I think those prices are on their way out-almost every vet in town...
