Hi
Does anyone have any experience or knowledge about 3-legged animals?
I am fostering a 3-legged kitten. He was brought to the vet to be euthanized, but the vet couldn't do it. The kitten didn't get the surgery right after he was ran over by a car. He lived in a cage for about a month when...
I don't know if you saw this before or not. But I wanted to share it anyways.

Hi,
How do you know that a cat is pregnant or not?
I am fostering a cat who is fostering 4 kitties. We introduced these 4 orphan kitties as soon as the mamma cat weaned her own babies.
I don't have ANY experience with pregnant cats, but this cat looks pregnant to me. She looks bloated on...
Hi guys
I have started fostering cats almost 5 months ago. With the classes I am taking, and the cats at home (there are 14 now at home ), I can not find time to spend across my PC as I used to do
7 of the kitties that I cared for have already found wonderful homes.
Now, I have a rescued...
My second cat Yumosh doesn't eat from the food bowls. She wants her food on the ground and I can't figure out why??
The only reason I can think of is, she is soo much scared of my first cat Minnosh. Minnosh chases her whereever and whenever she sees her. There are 3 food bowls for each of my...
Is it true that most landlords don't let pets in San Fransisco??
'Cause there is this person from Turkey, who says that she is moving to San Fransisco & looking for someone to adopt her cat. She is planning to leave his/her cat behind (if she can't find someone to adop the cat in 5 days, she...
Hi guys,
I am currently wondering the reason of the pet overpopulation in uSA.
When you think about it, all media related sources support neutering/spaying; all the pet magazines, internet etc. Also, USA has much better living standarts than most other countries in the world. Besides, there is...

I'll try to read as many threads as I can tonight
Talk to you
Hi everyone
I have been away from the cat site for a while since I was in Turkey
Tonight I was trying to trim Minnos's nails, but she got very angry & hissed at me; something she has never done before while I was cutting her nails ! So I decided to cut her nails on the other claw. She again...
Did anyone make his/her own cat door (which lets cats in & out of the house) ? A friend who is the head of a shelter needs 160 of them (both for cats & dogs)!!
Do you know the cheapest way / materials to use ?
It seems like Mavish, my Siamese mix, can't meow !! He is 5 months old now, & he makes some noises, but they are definitely not meows ! At first I thought those sounds were funny, but now I am a little bit concerned ! Do you think he might have a problem with his voice strings or something ...
Is there anyone who raised a Maine Coon since his/her kittenhood ??
I wonder how much a pure bred M. Coon weighs when he/she is around 8-9 months old.
Are males heavier than females ?
The vet doesn't believe that Yumosh is a M. Coone mix since she is not very heavy ( 6 pounds/ will be 9...
I have just learned the meaning of points in Siamese (finally ); seal means dark brown whereas blue means gray.
I still don't know the difference between blue point & lilac point though ?? Does lilac mean lighter blue ?
Yumosh is spayed today. Although they used only isoflorane as an anasthetic, the vet told us that her heart rate was 125 that is very very low (normally it should be around 200). She also told that this was probably because her heart muscles are weak & suggested us to monitor her carefully ...
Yumosh had ear mites before. We used 2 bottles of ear mite medicine & later we were told by the vet that there were no ear mites anymore ! But she still has extreme wax with very dark brown to blackish color, although she doesn't scratch anymore..
She had her yearly exam last weekend & I asked...
Which toys your cats like playing ??
I think most people will agree that they like furry mouse the most My younger ones like playing with my wool glove also I put a small stuffed animal toy on a pole (there were feathers on it before, but they tore them apart ). So they can bite & scratch...
I was asked about broken hips & legs by a woman in Turkey (in the Turkish forum)..This lady found her 5 months old porch kitten (actually one living in the streets but fed & cared by this lovely woman) hit by a car & left with broken back legs & a hip ! She took him to a vet & vet told her that...
