Until recently, I hadn't been on this site for a very long time. This is "Baby Kitty" now: image.jpg (1,682k. jpg file) We never could make a "real" name stick, so "Baby Kitty" became known as "BK" as he grew. It works for him. He'll be four this year, but is still very kitten-like. He's my...

Okay, lab work is back. All organ function is "beautiful", so that's a relief. X-rays showed no abnormalities. Urinalysis was normal. Vet's best guess is irritable bowel, food allergies, or possibly parasites. She wants to put her on a round of panacur and do a tapeworm injection (even...

I took my adult cat, Tallie in this morning to be checked out. She's been vomiting quite a bit lately, and last night, it was sort of clear, but looked blood tinged. Vet is doing x-rays, blood and urinalysis (blood and urine going to outside lab - will be back tomorrow). Tallie is about six...

Wow, Roxy is GORGEOUS!!!!

It is really sad. I work with a couple of dog rescue groups, and the black ones definitely take much longer to place than other varieties. I have a wonderfully sweet, smart and beautiful black Lab. She's a GREAT dog, but I'm still trying to find her a home and it's been six months. I...

Checking to see if my signature works

Baby Kitty is back to normal. You'd never know he had surgery three days ago! His official permanent name is Rooney, after the great Wayne Rooney of Manchester United Football Club.

Baby Kitty is doing well. He cried a little the first time he peed last night, but seems fine today. I'm keeping an eye on him.

Baby Kitty is getting neutered today. Bless his heart. He was shaking so bad when I dropped him off. Please think good kitty thoughts for my little baby boy today.

So glad to hear good things about Soft Paws. I went out and bought them this weekend, but haven't worked up the nerve to try to apply them yet! Maybe I'll go home, have a stiff drink, and give it a go! My three month old kitten is tearing me up (and the furniture) just while playing. He...

Yes, over-population of unwanted animals is out of control here in the South. I work with two dog rescues, and 99.9% of our dogs are transported up North and adopted there. Baby Kitty will probably be with us all his life, and that's just fine with me! I really need to find a proper name for...

Well, no one seems to be interested in adopting Baby Kitty, so we may now have a third cat! I'm taking him to the vet today for an exam and first set of shots. I'm a little nervous. I will be absolutely heartbroken if he has feline aids or leukemia. One of my rescue friends told me to keep...

My new "foster kitty" (ha ha, that's a joke around our house) is about seven to eight weeks old. I've never had a kitten before. My others came to me as adults. Should I be feeding him anything besides dry kitten food? I gave him a treat this morning and he loved it, but I'm not sure I...

As requested, videos of Baby Kitty: If the video doesn't play right away, let it sit for a minute. The videos are very short and shouldn't take long to download. I guess he needs a real name, huh? Hubby wants to name him Baxter, but I don't know. I like Oliver.

I would really love to keep him, but I have eight pets in my house and that's too many! I have a dog, a foster dog, two cats of my own, three rabbits and now the baby kitty. I refuse to take him to a shelter because I know what can (and probably will) happen there. So unless he is adopted...

My husband found an orange tabby baby kitty running around a very busy Starbuck's parking lot. He was tiny then, only about five or six weeks old. Some customers were shooing this poor little baby and kicking at him. There was no sign of a mother cat or siblings, and my hubby couldn't bear...

Bella (dominant female) was adopted last November. Marley (sweet boy) was already with me, but it was obvious straight away who would "rule the roost". Bella never accepted Marley and still just does her own thing. She usually leaves him alone, but sometimes can't resist bullying him. She...

I currently have two adult cats, both about seven years old. One is a very sweet male, the other is a not-so-sweet female (what is it with the girls?!). I am getting one or two male foster kitties this week, about five months old. I will be using the introduction method favored here. New...

I just had my cat at the vet's Monday for chin acne. He likes to drink out of the dog's water bowl, which is plastic. I promptly replaced it with stainless. I also bought a set of pyrex custard bowls for the cats' dry food. They are a little larger than normal custard bowls, and were only $5...

Well, I'm sure glad I saw this! I am heading to the vet's with my cat today. After reading this, I'm sure it's acne. He drinks from the dog's plastic water bowl, even though he has his own. I can't stop him from doing that, so I'll have to replace the bowl with a stainless one. He's still...
