It's been awhile since I have been here. I've lost a few more feral kittens.First of all some of them have an eye infection that looks terrible! Swelled eye, green puss; plus some of them are sneezing and acting strange. I have tried to trap them or catch them. Nothing is working so far. What...

At that time my "vet" more or less said the cats would work things out on their own. Then the idea of putting them all in a room together. I should have known better, I'm old enough, that's for sure! You'er right my vet didn't own a cat. I just recently got a PC and am finding out how much info...

A few years ago when we adopted a new cat one of our "old" cats would not poop in the litter boxes. I called my vet and he suggested putting all three cats in one room and leaving them all together for five days to a week. I felt bad doing that but it worked. I was lucky there was no big cat...

When I had Haley and was trying to find her help I called the Animal Shelter that has only been open for less than a year. I was shocked when they told me they had one spot open and could take Haley, but the only reason they had an opening was because a dog had to be put to sleep to make room...

I would love to post a picture of all my babies, but I don't have a decent camera. Maybe I can get a friend to take pictures for me. I'll work on that.

That is very sad and disgusting. We have the same "law". We live in the country, if another animal comes on our property and we notify the owner to keep their pet home and they don't do it, it is legal to shoot them. A few years ago when we first got our 4 yr. Rott. we kept her tied up in the...

This is a first for me. We always had barn cats, strays, etc. But we have four kitten that are maybe three months old now. Three of the kittens eyes changed to green, but one black and white kitten eyes stayed blue! I have never seen this before. The only blue eyed kittens we have ever had is...

You will get a lot of joy and happiness of being a foster mom!! It is so rewarding to know that those babies and mom will have a second chance of finding a loving home. Bless your heart!

Good news!! Haley will be going to a Pitbull Rescue in a couple of days!! It's out of state and they will send someone to pick her up!! I am so happy for her! She deserves a good and loving home.

Welcome!! I'm new here myself but everyone has been a God send to me! You will have lot of support here! And everyone feels like family!!

This has nothing to do with cats, but I have a female pitbull that I recued last night. The good news is I found a pitbull rescue that will take her!! Tomarrow I'll find out all the details. Maybe there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow!!

Whisker's mom, Thank you for the compliment. It makes this all the "easier" to deal with when you have friends that support and feel your pain when the babies don't make it. And I do take things to "personal" and blame myself. I know God has a reason for all this, and He won't give you more...

Jeanie G. I have seen sites about tube feeding kittens. At the time I didn't think to ask my vet about it. I thought I could never do the sub-q's, but I can. I'll make sure if the need arises again that I learn how. Thank you for reminding me of that!!

Thanks for all the support! I get so upset trying to do my best, with the little knowledge I know about taking care of baby kittens. That's what hurts, I don't know everything. There is nothing more satifying than holding a baby in your hands looking for you to take care of it. The nestling...

I LOVE this site, but I have so much anger for the lose of the babies I tried to save!! I'm trying to rationalize all this, but sometimes I get so MAD and depressed because I couldn't do more! My emotions are all mixed up, damned if I do and damned if I don't! Does anyone else feel like this? I...

I loved each and everyone of those babies. In the last year or so with the lost of our two dogs and a yearling colt and other newborn kittens I tell myself to stop, enough is enough. I'm ready to get rid of all the barn cats and strays, but I can't do it. There must be a reason for this. I know...

Jill, you were the first newborn I found laying on the hard cold cement in the horse barn, only a few hours old, laying beside Gill-T, our two hundred pound Mastiff. A few hours there was Jack. Also laying beside Gill-T. How sad you both looked, cold and hungery looking for mama and comfort. I...

Hissy, it would be GREAT to get Dr. Lisa!!! I'll say a prayer!! Barb

Thanks for the welcome Deb! I do "know" hissy, wish I knew half of what she knows about raising newborn kittens!! She was a great help to me. I'm glad to be a member here!
