    Spay/Neuter - what age?

    I agree completely.  When we lived in Edmonton we had a cat neutered many years ago and it was around $300.  This vet does have excellent prices.  I think because it is in a small town out in rural Alberta they are happy just to have someone fixing their pets rather than litter after litter...

    Spay/Neuter - what age?

    Thanks.  I did look into the low cost spay/neuter clinic but it is 2 hours away and the cats have to be 100% up to date on their vaxs and have a letter from their vet (so you can't just show you gave your own vaxes), Then it is a $50 application fee etc.  By the time I factor in gas costs, vet...

    New here :) Hello

    I am in Alberta Canada.  It is common to have the limit of 3, it is not common to have a way to own more (the breeders license).  It is in effort to curb unwanted pets from unethical breeding and to prevent animal hoarding/neglect.  While some of us can handle lots of pets and take very good...

    Spay/Neuter - what age?

    I just booked my oldest cat in to be neutered next month, he will be 1 year old.  It got me wondering about what age I should get the girls done.  Willow is nearly 6 months, and Lily is 3 months.  I waited with Storm until 1 year because I wanted to wait for him to reach sexual maturity flor the...

    How often do you clean your cat bowls?

    I clean the water dishes once a day when I am refilling them in the am.  The food dishes get washed twice a day.  I own 7 food bowls for the cats to make it easier on myself since we don't have a dishwasher, in case I don't have time to wash the first set before supper there is always another...

    New here :) Hello

    I always have my hands full :) But I love it.  My folks laugh that I like to do things in bulk, 1 cat is good so let's have 3, 1 kid is good so lets have 4, 1 dog is good so lets have 2 etc
