    Scratching ear/black stuff/ help!?!

    also want to add that a male unfixed cat is at higher risk for FIV .  We recently adopted a stray cat that was turned into shelter and she is testing postive for FIV.  IF your kitty gets the FIV virus he would be more susceptable to all types of infections throughout his life.

    new 4 yr old sleeps all day

    Sorry been so long to respond back to everyone.  Update on our kitty is that she is playing more and more everyday.  She's also awake more during the day hours.  Her favorite toy is my far the "Da Bird"  !!  She also loves laser light and of course her cat nip filled toy.
