    Pregnant Foster

    No kittens yet, but she wants OUT of here. She clawed up the plastic I have over my windows to insulate for the winter. I think she was outside a loooong time, will she calm down eventually? Is there anything I can do to make her not want OUT? My other cats have never been out so they are...

    Pregnant Foster

    So far she's still pregnant. I cleaned out the closet (hahaha, it was FULL of stuff, this is my "storage" room) and emptied the shoes on the floor and lined the closet with towels. She puts herself under the shelf and it seems big enough for her to fit with kittens for awhile. She is wide...

    Old Sick Foster Kitty

    Well, the vet said she had black tonsils, he described them as 2 black jelly beans. She had a blood profile recently and he said the test results are showing kidney failure on one test and not on the other, He's not seen anything like it and her gums are infected. They have her marked as a mean...

    Old Sick Foster Kitty

    Tomorrow is her vet visit, Hopefully it won't be anything serious so they won't say she needs to be put to sleep. I like having her here and she's a sweetheart. She's been real good so far and she seems better than when I got her here but I would imagine just having food that doesn't hurt her...

    Old Sick Foster Kitty

    This morning she ate another whole jar of baby food, yay...she used the litter box sometime during the night and I found my tube of nutri-cal, I'm going to suppliment with that(got her to eat a little bit of it off my finger). She didn't seem in as much pain while I fed her today (I've been...

    Old Sick Foster Kitty

    The cat has been in the shelter for a long time and she's current on shots and is on advantage. I think they are afraid to do much with her because she is very old....I hope she is okay until Monday! Cindi

    Old Sick Foster Kitty

    Hi Alicat, we're neighbors...I'm in Bremerton! I was scared to do it, scared of exposing my other cats to disease or making them mad because they all have their own space and seem content but I have a large house and figured this foster kitty would be more comfortable here than in her cage at...

    Maxximum Nutrition cat food

    I've used it with no ill effects, the ingredients were the same as Iams and my cat loved it. I now buy Kirkland from Costco which also has the same ingredients as Iams, in fact, the canned food has chicken, not by products, not meal, it's real meaty and it's real chicken! One of my cats won't...

    Okay, I've decided to foster some cats and no kill shelter had me pick up a VERY old kitty who had stopped eating days ago.

    Poor Little Kitty

    I just wanted to add, I used program and did the vaccinations for ringworm when my persian got it and it's all gone and nobody else got it, not the other 2 cats or the 3 humans, thank goodness. The only thing I noticed about her disposition after all the bathing, combing, medicating, etc was...

    Whats really in pet food?

    "Since I have been feeding those foods the litter box is not the chore that it used to be. Both cats poop twice a day and it's almost a pleasure cleaning that box! " Hey, since you enjoy it so much, would you come clean my boxes out too?????

    Just a quick behavioral question

    I have a persian who starts licking at the air when we scratch her there, I have NO idea why she does it but she licks the air and will bite whatever is in front of her sometimes. Not hard, like she wants to nibble because it's too intense. Maybe it's all related!

    What to feed a new adopted shelter cat?

    My sister had a rott who starved herself after she moved out on her ex. She went to say goodbye before they put the dog to sleep and she decided to take the dog home just as a last ditch effort and low and behold, the dog started eating and lived another 6 years with my sister. I think her ex...

    Food, Food and More Food

    Yea, I had to quit worrying about it, it was becoming an obsession and made everything less enjoyable. Now if all my food fears could just make it easier to lose weight......I'd be in business Cindi

    Food, Food and More Food

    I also feed Kirkland (with some canned food for the new shelter kitty, she still prefers canned)...it comes from Costco and it's really reasonably priced. The ingrediants were the same as Iams and I can't get my 2 older cats to eat canned, they prefer the Kirkland. The PAWS shelter had all...

    What to feed a new adopted shelter cat?

    It could be a part siamese thing but shes rather long and seems like she should be a big cat. She weighed 6.25 at the vet's office. She's eating pretty well now, though, although she is FINICKY, which is something I've never had in a cat. If she likes it, she can't get enough but if she...

    What to feed a new adopted shelter cat?

    My cat is now eating, yay! She wouldn't eat the sophisticat cheaper food in any flavor (I've tossed 4 not touched plates of food out so far and all of this brand except the 1 can of nine lives, weird, but not a big deal) but will eat anything expensive (nutro, Iams, Authority, etc) so I guess I...

    What to feed a new adopted shelter cat?

    This is my second shelter cat, the first was the one who died of FIP and I ALMOST swore off shelter kitties (to avoid the heartache and infecting my other 2 cats, a kitty whom I stole from some abusive kids 7 years ago at a yard sale and a persian 8 mos old). I was ready to pay $500 for a...
