Okay, thanks again to all. Right now I'm just going to try and relax and calm down. I'm still shaken up from dealing with the Exorcist Kitty this morning. As long as I'm still nervous and freaked out, Pavel will pick up on that and it will make him feel even more nervous and freaked out.

Hi Jenny, That's an interesting suggestion. You mean grab him by the scruff and hold him up, so that only his back legs are on the floor? It's worth a try. I think you're absolutely right that the quicker I do this, the better. Less time for him to think and get freaked out. I just know I'm...

Thanks for the replies. EMB, that's just the problem. I live alone. I MIGHT be able to get somebody to come over and help me with this once, but not twice a day, every day. I'm not sure how long Pavel will need this medicine, but I'm assuming for several days at least. I do really appreciate...

Hi all, My 3 year old kitty Pavel has an infection in both eyes. Technically he is only semi-feral (he was a 10-week old feral kitten when I took him in), and usually he acts very sweet and tame and adores being petted. But this morning when I tried to put him into the carrier to go to the...

Thanks again to all for the welcomes. DMC, your Linx and Mischka look almost exactly like my Nicky and Pavel

Thanks to everyone for the replies. Yes my fur family is quite large, and seems like it's about to get larger, assuming I keep Nadia. I live in an area where there are a LOT of stray kitties, unfortunately But I'm going to have to swear off anymore stray adoptions after Nadia. 8 cats is more...

Hi Oreo, I'm not an expert, but I don't think you should worry so much about desensitizing the kittens to vacuum cleaners, loud noises, etc. The main thing is that the kittens learn to like humans and not be afraid of us. They need to accept being held, petted, talked to and so forth. I read...

Okay, thanks TNR. How urgently would I need to move here? She gave birth on July 22nd. Assuming the kitten leave at 8 weeks old as scheduled, how long would it take before she's likely to go into heat again?

Hello everyone. Nice to see so many other lovely cat lovers out there. I don't have the technology to post pictures, but I can tell you a little bit about my kitty furbabies. I currently have 7 cats, and 5 other cats staying with me temporarily (though 1 of those may stay for good). They are...

Hi Becki, I did think about keeping the kittens until 12 weeks of age. But I just want to give them the maximum possible chance to be adopted, and so I figure it's best to get them to the shelter while they're as young and adorable as possible. I will ask around about getting Nadia spayed...

Thanks to all for the replies. I guess I wasn't clear before. Nadia is living in my house, in my bedroom with her kittens. She cannot get pregnant again because all my kitties are fixed. So I am in no rush to get her spayed soon. There are no TNR programs in my area, and I'm pretty sure my vet...

Hi everybody, I'm brand new here and would really love to get some advice. This came out a bit long, so please bear with me. I live in a desert area where there are many stray cats. So I currently have 7 cats (5 boys and 2 girls), ranging in ages from 6 - 1 years. Six of these kitties...
