Thank you all!!! Just talked to DH... we'll wait till tomorrow morning to make an apt for probably Thursday afternoon... or Friday... He'll probably take her to the vet by himself.. I'm a sleep-deprived, tired and emotional wreck right now with three booked client appointments for tomorrow...

I have a 16 y.o. sweet kitty who the vet thinks has lymphosarcoma. She's got a large tumor in her abdominal cavity and another one around her heart. They did not run any bloodwork when I took her in, just x-rays, and said that the prognosis is grim and that we can bring her in at any time to be...

Thank you guys and gals!

I have an idea, but not sure how doable it is and it could be tooooo expensive and not worth it. For some not so old cats (maybe around 10 y.o.) who have no known medical issues, if it's not cost prohibitive, maybe offering a 1-year vet insurance at adoption? This may help ease some people's...

But what about the neighbors? From what I can see, one of the properties was a townhouse - did the neighbors not realize that the smell was cat urine? Did they not see dozens of cats in the windows before the cat population reached 200 and 420 - the size of a small town? Did the 82-year old...

I cried when they left... Joey is so sweet - he would climb on my lap and lay their, or try to sniff my nose and touch my hair and Louie had the loudest purr you've ever heard! He would outpurr any of my grown cats!!... I'm gonna miss them!

Thanks for all your inputs!!! You all are the best!!! I've got great news - two of the kittens (Joey and Louie) have just found their new home! A couple with their 10-year old son came over and my husband and I talked with them. They had cats before, they knew how to handle the kittens...

Thank you for your quick replies! catsknowme - thank you for the info on your sister - I will try to put my 100% efforts on finding homes locally for now, but if all fails I might pm you later. I had a couple of more phone calls tonight - there should be at least 2-3 people coming tomorrow and...

I posted here a month or two ago about a feral momma cat and her kittens (thank you all for your help) - as an update, the momma cat has been spayed and then a week later released back into our back yard where she's living now. A regular food supply from us makes our yard that much more...

If you can, set a kennel or a carrier with mom outside for a couple of hours. Her smell and sound will likely attract the other two.

Thanks, Katie, for a quick response. The link you gave has a lot of useful information. I will probably keep the cats in the crate where they are in right now for the next week, trying to socialize all of them as much as possible and will have the mamacat spayed in the next week. Anyone has...

Hi Everyone, Glad to have found this site! I've read through some of the messages, but did not quite find the answers to my situation. I would really appreciate your all knowledge in helping me out! Over the weekend I trapped a feral mamacat and her 3 feral kittens. The kittens are 6 weeks old...
