We just recently took in a pregnant stray. A gentleman was feeding her on his porch for some time, desperate for someone to take her before she gave birth, but refused to surrender her to someone who would spay/abort. I offered to take her and allow her to birth her babies within our...

I am currently fostering a kitten that was brought to me in bad condition. He is severely underweight, (was) riddled with fleas, and has a URI that rivals all other URIs that I've seen. We are on day 2. He has seen the vet, is on Clavamox and Terramycin, and is being bottlefed since he is...

I love looking at everyone's kitty pics! Here are some pics of my kitties: This is Waldo. He is the most tolerant, most accepting, most personable cat I've ever known. He is a shoulder rider, and can jump from the floor, and climb a standing adult person up to their shoulder and lay down...

I posted about 2 weeks ago about a very young (5 wk) kitten that tested a faint positive for FeLeuk on a SNAP test. We don't typically test so young, but we are in need of getting him quickly into a foster home so a test was done. The test was done in house, and when the positive was "faint"...

I'm looking for a sanctuary or rescue dedicated to the welfare of FeLV+ cats/kittens. Preferably in the state of Ohio. I've searched the internet and am not coming up with much. Would like a reputable, well established organization. This is not my kitten, it is an owner surrender that tested a...

I posted about a calico girl with leg/joint issues in another thread a few days ago. The same day I picked her up, I got a separate call about a tabby kitten dumped in a busy parking lot. I went and picked him up as well, and all seemed fine except for a bad case of URI. Unfortunately I had...

A friend recently called me about a litter of three kittens that showed up at their country home, probably around 8-9 weeks old. They are very friendly, obviously dump offs. Two of them are very healthy, active. All three are clean, no ear mites, no fleas, no goopy eyes/noses. But the one, a...

I am looking for some opinions concerning a cat I am fostering for our local HS. Fred came from a vet's office to stay with us on Nov. 27th. He had spent several days at the office, brought in by someone to be euth'd, but the vet offered to save him and contacted the HS to take him. He, at...

I posted about my new foster in the behavior forum when I discovered his "pretend spraying" and didn't realize that cats did this.... Yesterday evening, my husband got home from work, and I excitedly dragged him upstairs to see our newest stow-away in the bathroom (where he is living...

I am fostering a cat for my local HS. A male, 8-9 months of age, just went in for his neuter/testing/vaccs yesterday and I picked him up directly from the vet this morning. He's a gorgeous skinny light orange/white boy. Long and lanky. I have 4 cats of my own, so I allowed him one trip around...

A cat showed up during a snowstorm a few weeks ago. I noticed she felt very "large" in the belly. I brought her in and quickly begged everyone I knew (and a few people I didn't know ) to take her off my hands. Well, of course everyone gave the same reasons I had for not wanting to keep...

There are a lot of ferals in my area. (some tame strays, too) One in particular has taken a liking to pooping in my yard. Not in flower beds, not in the driveway, but all over my yard. Right in our walk path, right by my son's swingset, in the middle of they yard, in the backyard. It's pure...

I have introduced Waldo and his sister on another thread. But, for refresher, he's a 6.5 wk old kitten I took in (along with his sister) from a feral mom. They are so cuddly you'd never know they had no human companionship from birth til about 5 wks old. So first, here's Waldo loooooovin' some...

I may be jumping the gun here. But I want to get this boy out of here asap. If there is someone near here that can help, I will work out the details of getting ahold of him to get him to a new, better home. Bo is a neighbor cat that has been banished outside because he is loaded with fleas. He...

I've posted a few pictures of these kitties on a thread in the cat lounge. They're brother/sister, almost 6 weeks old. They're not *QUITE* ready to go yet, but I wanted to put them out there now, and maybe get them lined up for homes ahead of time. They won't be ready until the little boy's eye...

I'm relatively new here, posted an intro thread, asked a question in the pregnant cat/kittens forum. Here's some pictures of my 5 week old kitty pair. They're fosters, so I won't be keeping them, but I enjoy the heck outta them while they're here. They both have a little bit of an eye...

I have two former feral kittens, between 5-6 wks old. Brother and sister. They have only been here 3.5 days. In those 3.5 days, they started out in a "small" cage, then graduated to our spare bathroom yesterday. In these days, they've yet to use the litterbox. Well, ok, someone peed in it once...

Hi fellow crazy cat people! I found "this place" when I was looking for some factual sites on declawing. I am a semi-active member of another forum of pet lovers, but was unpleasantly surprised about how "ok" they are with declawing. So long story short, I stumbled across a thread here about...
