Update 10/7/2016 I found a low cost spay and neuter clinic that was very understanding and kind.  Got Keke and Punkin spayed and Handsome neutered and vaccinations for only $155.00.  I needed separate carriers for each of them. I already had a travel carrier for Mookie and found 2 nylon...

Update on Keke, Handsome, Punkin and Mookie. Thank you crackerjack and eothecat.  I appreciate your kind words. It has been several weeks since my first post so here is an update to keeping the 3 kittens I love. Money, Money, Money. My job search is delayed because I just found out I have a...

I had the same experience with Frontline Plus I bought at Walmart for my three 5 month old kittens and an 8 year old outdoor cat.  I actually had been applying it to the outdoor cat for several months before I noticed a few fleas on the kittens who stay indoors. Within a few weeks, I am in a...

I had two 80+lb shepherd/lab/whatever mix dogs who were 7 and 9 years old when we were on a walk and found Mookie cat.  My naughty dogs chased squirrels and unfortunately cats so when I found Mookie and she was bleeding and meowing in the snow, I just couldn't leave her so I took her to a vet...

Haha! I laughed so hard when I saw that photo.  Everytime I flea comb them and see fleas then dip the comb in a glass of soapy water, I cuss them. "die you 'explicit, explicit, explicit."  I hate them!

Thank you Raina! I did not know that.  Only time they are alone right now is when I am asleep.  I am unemployed right now and the only low cost clinic within 100 miles of me is booked for a month.  Maybe I should just go ahead and pay the cost to have Handsome neutered as soon as I can get an...

Ok nix the citrus idea.  Very sticky and messy.  I did take the peel and chopped it up and placed in between and under the sofa cushions and under the sofa.  Also put some on an old sheet and laid it on my bed.  Not sure if this will make the fleas hit the floor but I am willing to try...

Well Handsome is a flirt anyways, has been since he was 2 weeks old when I called him Daisy because I didn't know their sexes yet.  He is very lovable with his sisters.  Licks them and nuzzles them but has always been that way so it will be hard to notice if his attentions are in a sexual...

Cardboard boxes, coffee cans or cardboard tubes and duct tape.  My kittens got bored after a few minutes with all the toys too.  So I got a bunch of card board boxes and cut the bottoms off coffee cans, then duct taped the cans edges real good so it wouldn't cut them and duct taped several...

Ok, I just did some research on when to have your kittens spayed and neutered and I am even more confused!  Seems everyone has a different opinion.  My kittens just turned 5 months.  2 female and one male.  The clinic I am taking them too only does surgery's on Saturdays and they are booked up...

Oh my goodness!  So adorable. I could just cuddle Leo to pieces. Thank you for sharing that.  That first meow and those first purr's, precious moments

Male dogs can develop testicular cancer is they are not neutered.  Plus, they can smell a female in heat miles away and will do anything from digging under the fence to hopping 6 ft fences to get to the female. I got my 2 male mix dogs from the shelter so they were neutered but my brother took...

I'm new here and read many threads about flea treatments and home remedies. I have three 5 month kittens and an 8 year old outdoor cat.  I live in the Midwest where fleas are rampant.  I learned years ago with my dogs and Mookie cat that prevention is key!  Preventing them before you have an...

I do not know why it did not dawn on me that they were brought to me for a reason.  Most everything that has happened in my life turned out to be for a reason (whether I liked it or not).  I will be asking many questions and sharing many wonderful story's about my little family on this site. I...

WhatsOneMore, Your story brought tears to my eyes.  It has been mentioned by several friends and family members that it was really too soon after Ozzy's death to foster a litter kittens and that was probably why it was so hard to give up the kittens but not once had I considered that maybe they...
