    How can I confine my three kitties to the yard?

    Hello all, Some neighbors are complaining about our three adopted cats who have been using their shrubbery as litter boxes. I can certainly sympathize with the neighbors and told them would restrict our cats. I don't yet know how. At this time we are keeping them confined to inside our house...

    Death Row Dilemma!

    Help me to make a decision. A mama cat and her three kittens showed up about three weeks ago. (We like cats and already have a cat.) We have found a good home for one of them but can't place the other two. We cannot care for them. So far, we've let them be "barn cats" and live outside. We...

    What does a spay scar look like?

    For the past several months a female tortoise-colored cat from some unknown place in the neighborhood has been visiting our cat (who is neutered). She enjoys playing and sharing the menu with our cat. She is a nice kitty and is well cared for by someone, somewhere. We call her Tutti-Fruity. She...

    Microchip implants

    Does anyone know about microchip implants for identifying cats that might get lost? We're thinking about getting one for our cat, Junior. I guess the vet can do it? I've tried to google up some information but most of the available information just talks about how the implants might cause...

    What am I?

    Does anyone know what kind of kitty this is? She's very thin (skinny); we offered her food but she's not hungry. She seems to be in good health -- playful and friendly. Thanks for any info.

    All Points Bulletin!

    What kind of cat could this be? Almost daily, usually in the late afternoon, a kitty has began to show up on the back patio to visit our cat Junior. She's gotta belong to someone in the immediate neighborhood who recently moved in. She's very unique looking, almost strange, and we can't figure...

    Neutering. Does it make a difference?

    We had our male cat neutered ("fixed") about two years ago. It doesn't seem to have done much good. He still roams the neighborhood. And last night, to our surprise, he was having sex with a new girlfriend to the neighborhood. Does it really do any good to have tomcats neutered? Isn't...

    Our majestic kitty has died

    This will be a rather hastily-written, non-Shakesperean effort. I just feel a need to ramble a little about our 20-year-old kitty who died this morning. I suppose this post is a sort of eulogy which will be recorded in cyberspace and the great cosmos and will be a resonance for all eternity...

    Home euthanasia?

    The vet told us about five days ago that there's nothing more she can do for our 21-year-old loyal kitty. He is dying. He gets weaker with each passing hour. He doesn't seem to suffering from acute pain. He looks like he's trying to find a comfortable position. He no longer eats or drinks...

    No appetite, won't eat.

    Several days ago our 20-year-old kitty stopped eating. He was already thin due to his old age. But now, since he has stopped eating entirely and drinks almost no water, he is emaciated and is almost skin and bones. I took him to the vet yesterday and I'm waiting for the results of a blood...
