You are right Plebayo. Once I thought it was okay to let my angel (now in heaven), go outside the front of the house since she never went any further. Well one day Angel was outside and several kids picked her up to take her with them (maybe they just wanted to keep her) and my neighbor saw...

Why don't you send this ignorant woman an email or leave her a message and tell her what you think, whichever you feel more comfortable doing. I do tell them firmly now that they are dumping their cats/dogs - they need to be told off. They're cruel - unless it is truly something like illness...

I was wondering if any group members or even individuals here would like to foster and place some cats and kittens, who are from Maryland. We just rescued a cute black mama and her two kittens (both black) and a very nice brown/ gray tiger-striped boy who is desperate for a home. We found him...

I am also glad that things turned out so good for Gabe. Amy Jo is right , all of the cities have a huge problem with homeless cats who are frightened of people, and need most of all to be fed and given water . You can ride around at night and see the poor things wandering the streets and the...

Thanks for letting us know what happened here. You have to be careful who you are giving the kittys to , for adoption, most have suffered enough. And you have to be aware of your personal safety as well. Http://furryfriendsrescue.bravehost.com/

I found this site and wanted to make sure I let you all know about them, who are caring for the strays. They make a variety of outdoor houses for cats and dogs, they sound nice, they have rot resistant bases, linoleum or carpeted floors and door flaps come with them. They have several basic...

Yes Vets are really expensive and it's especially hard on people who have more than a few kittys and dogs to care for. Dental work alone can really be high. I wish that some of the well-off rescues in different states, would open their own Vets practices, hire the Vets and staff , it would...

You might try Friends of Animals too, Charmed ,they have a S/N certificate program and it would be so nice if they could offer you more assistance since they are a well-financed group. So happy you're feeding these little ones, they need us to care about them. Maybe a local vet or groomer might...

I've been looking up dental care threads for caring for the kittys and dogs teeth. I haven't heard of using a wash cloth before, but that might be a good way to do it with some cet poultry toothpaste on it. Guaze seems to sometimes get stuck on one of their teeth and I don't like to use it...

I really appreciated reading your ideas about helping the strays, kittycity, we all seem to run into the same problems with rescue work, it is very difficult and sad to deal with. I always write about the desperate need for more people to volunteer in the cities where there are so many homeless...

Well hopefully this is true that they will continue basic services, at the least. I think it would be good though that the rescue groups in Michigan get involved with pulling the animals from the Detroit shelter on a regular basis. There are many more animals turned into...

Hi and welcome to the forum. Your babies are lovely . One of my first kittys was named Muffin who I rescued from neighbors who didn't take care of her. I miss her very much as she left us ten years ago. The cats and dogs who are rescued are so grateful that someone cares about them. Hope...

Gardenandcats is right you can find a local rescue group to help you catch her, if you don't of any, just call the vet's office and they'll be able to refer you to one. http://furryfriendsrescue.bravehost.com/

I'm glad you can donate food to Alley animals, cat food is always needed for the many cats out n the streets. We take care of different locations in the city. They travel many alleys throughout the innercity to help the strays. However there's still alot of neighborhoods where noone goes to...

No , very few people feed the strays in the inner city and housing projects, I've been going down there for a long time now and I know 4 other people who do many alleys in the city and that's the number one problem here, the cats and dogs are not fed or given water and that includes many pets...

You have a good point about the rescues needing to get involved with the strays on the city streets instead of only pulling from shelters, I've talked about this for a long time. With enough volunteers we could reduce the stray population in the inner cities with just sheer numbers. Trust...

I am looking for members here from Maryland ,that would like to help the strays on the city streets. We need good foster homes and also others that are willing to help feed and rescue unwanted, abandoned cats and dogs who are all over the city alleys and streets. It only takes a few hours a...

Thank you for printing that. We need some positive pats sometimes too, for sure. Http://furryfriendsrescue.bravehost.com/

As I mentioned in the other post, you might want to go to Petsmart and look into the "top paw dog homes". They are insulated and you can add a flap in front and line with straw or thermal blankets. They cost $39 or $49 each and are sturdy. Hope this helps...

You might want to check Petsmart too. They sell "Top Paw dog homes" for $39 and $49 that are nice and insulated. You can add a vinyl flap to the door opening and put straw or thermal blankets on the floor to add warmth. Be sure to hide them out of sight so noone will bother them or take...
