Anyone know of a reputable chinchilla breeder in the West Texas (Lubbock, Amarillo) area? Not looking for a fancy chin, just a standard color to love. Thanks!

Poor Abbey was uncomfortable this afternoon and I noticed she'd peed some blood. Called the vet and they gave her an antibiotic for a UTI. Please send my poor stressed out baby some healing vibes. First the constipation, overnight hospital stay, enema, and a bath.. now this. Please get well...

Abbey came home from the vet yesterday and now she smells awful. They rinsed her off a bit before they brought her to me wrapped in a warm towel, said she had decided to sleep in her litterbox after using it (she was at the vet for constipation). I guess the litterbox was a safe comforting...

Kaeli seems extremely grumpy since Abbey came home from the vet yesterday. Abbey spent a night there due to constipation. (see other thread). I thought she'd be relieved to have her friend home again, as she was really missing her and looking for her before Abbey came home. Now Kaeli's...

Anyone have any reviews for the petmate or drinkwell pet fountains? I have no idea if my cats will like it or be scared of it, but I thought it looked like a great way to get them some extra water if they could be enticed. They both drink out of the dish, and I clean and change it with fresh...

How long is safe for a kitty to go between poops in the box? I ask because I was awoken to the hairball hurk noise yesterday at 5am. Abbey had vomited some foam, and was squatting like she needed to poo. Finally she did, a little and it looked sorta constipated. After that, she went for...

Hooray! My girls like the chicken Wellness that I bought. I havent seen them eat with such focus at suppertime in ages.. hehe Hopefully the new food will help them become a bit more svelte, and a little less floofy.. lol I must admit, it sure smells a WHOLE lot better than the nutro cans they...

Am I crazy to be considering ordering cat food online? Sure the convenience of it coming to my doorstep is wonderful, but wow - what times we live in here that we can have things like this come to us. I've decided I want to try my girls on the Wellness cans, but I can't buy them in town...

Thanks to all of the wonderful knowledge on these forums I've become a LOT more conscious of what's on the label of Abbey and Kaeli's food. I'm trying to learn to read the label for wet cat food. I think I've got how to read the dry food sorted pretty well. Just a few questions as I compare...

I was playing with my camera today, so I thought I'd see if my sweet purries would stand still long enough for some glamour shots. Just wanted to share my beautiful girls with you. Abbey - couple of months ago Abbey today Another Abbey Kaeli - she looked like this in every picture I...

I've been doing a little reading here today - so I maybe shouldn't feed my kitties both wet and dry food? They both love the wet food, should I stop the kibbles? I leave a bowl of kibbles down all the time. Should I rethink leaving the kitty kibbles down? I always thought the crunchies were...

Other than this forum (all 9 million pages - I've read almost 60 pages now...), TICA and CFA websites, where else can I learn all about cat shows? I want to get involved in the future, I've decided I want to start by showing an alter. I dont have a breed chosen yet (my furrbabies are both...

My girls are kitty sitting for their friends across the street. Their cats are indoor/outdoor cats, so when they go out of town they leave the garage up a little and the kitties go in and out at will. When they're home they're in the house and outside as they wish to be. I went to watch them...

Some time ago I posted some pictures of a feral mama cat and her litter. Well since then we've had no luck capturing her for spay and release, but in all of it, somehow, Miss Sybil came to be. A couple of months ago there was a meowing outside my mother's window. It started early in the...

My mom signed papers on a house down the street today. Once she received the keys she went over to go clean a bit, and saw a momma cat nursing 3 babies in the back garden under the tree. Mom didnt go outside to get close, the momma cat was pretty skittish, but I've given her my digital cam to...

I'm kitty-sick. Its like being homesick. I was hospitalized today, and will likely be here for a couple of weeks or until I give birth, whichever comes first. Abbey and Kaeli have my DH and kids to take care of them and purrz with, but its just not the same. They've been extra cuddly lately...

I know we all love pics here, so I took a few more the other day. Enjoy! Abbey: Who's a pretty girl? Helping with laundry (that's a plastic hanger she's pawing at so quickly): C'mon Abbey, stand still and smile for Meowmy's flashy thing: Zzz.. wha, you again? Sleepy Kaeli in "her"...

Being so pregnant and so round, this horizontal position is how I try to spend my time after work. Since I'm still working 40+ hrs a week, when DH says to go rest, I do. I walked in the door yesterday and both kitties met me, meowing up a storm until I got into bed. I guess we needed some...

Got a few snaps of Kaeli helping us last weekend when we were working on the baby's room. I don't think he's doing it right, Meowmy. I'll just sit here and hold up the wall for you. Phew, job well done. Abbey came in and investigated, but didn't stay long, she gave me a dirty look like...

Let me preface this by telling you that I'm 33 wks pregnant. My 2 kitties havent left my side for over 2 weeks now. Every time I lay down in bed (which is quite often) one or the other is on top of me purring her head off. Do you think they know something I don't? Kaeli follows me around the...
