Several months ago we rescued a kitten from an abuse situation. The goal was to get her adopted until we realized that due to the mistreatment there was no way she was ever going to be able to be adopted out. I had learned from the person who brought her to us that she had been tested and...

It's been quite awhile since I posted on this site, but I am in need of some advice regarding a possible stray who may not be a stray... but well here is the backstory. Sorry it's going to be long. About a year after we moved into our house, an adorable orange cat started coming around. Very...

I need some advice on what I can use for insulation in an outside cat shelter. I bought a big storage tub and cut a hole in it, but I want to insulate it so it doesn't get to hot in there. My first thought was to use Styrofoam but I'm not sure how well that would hold up to little cat claws...

OK... I am at my wits end here. I have such a sweet tempered lovey little boy who has a very big problem. Max has very dry and itchy skin. He also has a very bad case of feline acne which never fully goes away no matter what we do. Because of these two factors Max will itch his face to a bloody...

Wondering if anyone else has seen this before? Last night our new kitten who we think is 5 months old had this clear odorless mucus just dribbling out of his bum. He was eating and drinking fine, playing like a little hellion (which was fun running after him trying to clean up the mucus piles...

On our way back to Ohio this weekend, we stopped in Clinton, TN, to sleep for the night. In the morning, we spotted three small kittens that couldn't have been more than 7 or 8 weeks old in the area behind the parking lot of the Red Roof Inn that is right off the highway. These poor babies...

Ok raw feeders I need your opinion. I want to try feeding my cats a little bit of raw since they really love it when I cut up raw chicken breast for a treat for them. I work right down the road from a grocery store that has a full service meat department. My plan was to get a pound of chicken...

Well my old vacuum died on me... what am I saying, it wasn't old, it was about 3 years old. It was a Dirt Devil, supposed to be a good vacuum, but never really worked as good as it should have for as much as I paid for it. So it's time to get a new one, but I'm curious as to what other pet...

I know that wet food is better then dry. I've read all the debates here regarding that. The question is, is Friskies low quality crap food better than the highest quality dry food available? It's been 4 months since I settled on 4 cans of Friskies a day for 7 cats with a supplement of Chicken...

Found this funny article on Cracked.com on how to take care of your cat If you are not familiar with this website, their comedy can be tongue in cheek, but there is nothing really bad in this article, just don't go clicking around if you are easily offended ...

I'm trying to decide if these really work. We have older aluminum windows in our house and are not going to be able to replace them anytime soon. Someone told me that thermal curtains will keep wind and drafts down and help with energy costs, but I'm not sold yet. Due to having 7 cats, I would...

I found this video of a cat named Maru from Japan. What a personality on this boy. Its a long video but the box part at the end is worth it.

The food bowls go down and come up in 20 minutes twice a day. In my previous post I mentioned that my vet wanted me to start feeding all wet food since my Bear seems to be getting crystals. Well I switched back to Authority with a can or two a week of Wellness for cost reasons. I began getting...

Meet Gabe. He is our new addition to our household. We are such suckers I swear to fall for such a cutie And imagine our surprise when we were told of his unique feature... THREE toes! He has three toes and a thumb on both of his front paws. He looks like he has raptor toes We really...

This is gonna be long... sorry Well I knew it was gonna happen sooner or later with so many boys in my crew. Bear has crystals and a low urine PH. A round of antibiotics and some nasty PH increasing gel stuff and he seems to be peeing normal again. However I know that this is probably not the...

So we are off to the vet tonight for what appears to be a case of feline acne gone insane. Max has been getting bouts of acne since he was 4 months old. I know that seems young for a cat with acne but he also has other skin problems that pop up from time to time. Each time he would get an...

Looking for a little garden expert help. My one tomato plant, a Juliette variety, has white bumps all over the stem. Is this some sort of fungus? What can I try that is organic to fix this? Non-organic fixes? The leaves at the bottom of the plant look fine but the leaves at the top look like...

...and I need some advice. I found a cute little turtle in a parking lot close to Lake Erie. He was hanging out in a big puddle of standing water. I didn't think to much of it since I figured no one would try to park in this big puddle of standing water. I was wrong. Someone pulled right in...

I just realized that in 100 posts I've never posted pics of my puddies! So here is my Fuzbum crew... Arlokk is the oldest and is my handsome man. He is addicted to catnip and you can see he is real dusty here because he just had a roll around in the nip session. Aura is unimpressed. She is...

I don't know why I cruise Craigslist so much cause things like this break my heart. http://cleveland.craigslist.org/pet/1036169849.html I don't personally know any resources that could help with this poor kitty but maybe someone here does. It's Northeast Ohio. I would be willing to email or...
