I am so happy it looks like I have about 19 more cats to get out of that trailer park that I have been working on. This has been a learning experience for me though,,, i thought people could be reall cruel with reptiles,,but I have found that it really doesnt matter what type of...
well it looks like I am going to have to try and get all the ear mites under control too with the ones tha are left out there. I just got all the fleas and ticks off a bunch, now to deal with the mites...... This is so frustrating,, I know these cats didi not start out feral and stray, they were...
I took seven more cats Sunday to be spayed and neutered and then drop off at two different rescues (they had an adopt a thon last weekend which opened up more room) Well, I get a phone call two hours after I dropped them off that two are bleeding from the nose under anasthesia, come to find out...
I have safety equipment tha I use on some of my reptiles that come in here. I use it now, lol. I guess I was just having a lack of braincells that day. That will not happen again. I am not a fan of shots in the rump, lol
thats disgusting!! That man is extremely disturbed. Everyone talks about spaying and neutering your animals. Some people need to be spayed and neutered so they dont produce offspring like them!
Poor kitties, that is so awful!
This is just my opinion,,,,, I think the people who have the opinion of "they are just animals" are the ones I almost always get my rescues in from. I have four kids and a zoo, lol. I teach my children about responsibility for your animals, no matter what it is, a cheap hamster, snake, goldfish...
Do you know whos dog it is?? Around here animal control picks them up and there is a hefty fine if one comes on your property and kills an animal. Sometimes they even take the dog. I just watched this happen across the street from me. 4 huskys got out and into the neighbors yard and killed their...
Hi, I have another question again. In some of my earlier posts I told you I have trapped some feral moms and their kittens. One particular male kitten is turning out to be a good little kitty, he purrs now and everything when you walk into the bathroom where he is kept. The only problem is he...

Well the doctor was great,,lol. I got a nice painful antibiotic shot in the rump. I was given a twenty minute lecture about how cats mouths are dirty and bacteria ridden, lol. I thought dogs mouths would be bad but apparantly I was wrong. Lesson learned for me, lol. The finger is still pretty...
Well my tetnus is up to date because of the reptiles, lol. However I did make an appointment for the doctor, I will see him in 2 hours. It is not red, just swollen and painful. She got me pretty deep. They are the ones who requested I put her in a carrier, I thought it crazy, but thats what...
Well yesterday I went and got a have a heart trap as I discovered 5 females that were feral. I soon learned these would be the cause of a million more litters and I would never be done with the cats and kittens if I did not get these ones fixed. Well I got one trapped to take it and have her...
Thank you momofmany! I will look into that!
The only question I have is, if the URI is virus based, why is the antibiotics working for the ones I have here? All 5 are being treated by a vet.
Please excuse my ignorance as I do reptiles only usually, lol. In reptiles the URI is usually caused...
Thanks for your replies,,, I am working on getting them spayed and neutered. I work with an orginazation called NOAH. I only pay 25.00 a piece for the ones that are tame. I get free feral spay and neuter. My long term goal on this project is to get them all to the shelters, and out of that...
I agree that they need to be seen by a vet. I have 5 here at the moment that are being treated by a vet. I cannot take in anymore myself, and I can only get two out a week to the other rescues. I am not a non profit cat rescue, so all money is out of my pocket. Not to mention the time and space...
Hi, I am new to these forums. I run a reptile rescue and have been doing so for many years. A couple of months back I got a phone call about a bunch of hurt, sick, hungry cats in a trailer park. I do not usually do cats, dogs, etc.
Well I went out to take a look and it was worse than I ever...
