Quite conveniently, we have one of those. I'm not sure whether or not I'm going to be able to entice him into it, but it's worth a try. He might have to go to the clinic in a dog crate rather than a cat carrier, but I'll warn them when I call. I am hoping that if we give him some catnip we can...

Okay, this is really beginning to get me down. I am going to call on Monday to get Monster another appointment to be neutered and come hell or high water I am going to keep him from getting into the basement where we can't catch him! There are no doors on any of our main floor rooms except for...

Hubby allowed ours to get turned off when he was unemployed and that was the end of the cell phone for us!

I struggle a lot around smokers, but my best friend doesn't. She quit four months before me -- I passed six months in May, and I'm very proud of myself. I never thought that I'd be able to do it. I don't know why being around smokers is *still* so difficult! I even have nightmares about being...

I e-mailed her Thanks!

Thanks everybody! Nat, I wasn't with them when the vet went over them -- Hubby was. I suppose that it is possible that they didn't check their urine, and I will ask when we do finally get Monster in. We've been taking them to a clinic, but the vets have always been very understanding and...

I feel so sad for you There's not much that anybody can really say when something like this happens, and of course you don't know me, so all I can offer is my prayers and

I am pretty sure that I will be able to convince Hubby about the Nok Out (and if not, put my own earnings towards it) but for something like litter it's going to be a bit more difficult. He considers himself quite thrifty (even if he isn't always ) and I grow tired of having to convince him...

There is no way that we're going to be able to get Monster in last minute, since we take our cats to a low-cost clinic for their exams and the surgeries. Unfortunately I need to schedule well in advance to get them seen unless there is an emergency. Oddly as well, we only have two doors in our...

I was a member a while back but I wind up leaving the forum because (I'm going to be honest here), my moggy got pregnant. We had adopted her as spayed and obviously that wasn't the case. She had a litter of kittens (two of whom were rehomed and one of whom still lives with us but is mentally...

Oh wow! Congratulations! It looks like the type of book my DH would be interested in and I will point it out to him!

I joined this forum about a year and a half ago, but have been absent. Now I am trying to make all of my user names the same (and I've changed it since joining TCS). Can I get a username change so that I don't have to register a new account? I've been doing some article writing on Hubpages and...

We have five cats in my family, and while both of our females are very consistent with the litterbox, our males are giving us no end of trouble. Two of them are neutered and the other is... Well, I will get to that. It is the older male who is particularly the problem, and this is a recent...

Mom fed them again last night, after I was done with them. She's ignoring them now, but at least she isn't *running* from them. It's going to be so hard when it comes time to find homes for such sweet little kittens! This is just terrible

I have a litter of abandoned four week-old kittens. I've begun bottle feeding them, but I'm having trouble with their eliminations. I can only stimulate them to urinate, but not defecate. Am I doing something wrong, possibly? They are eating well from the bottle, about a teaspoon and a half...

We don't want to leave the blinds up on the front window (the one he goes at) because we have a big screen TV and we live on the outskirts of a "bad neighborhood." Our pocket is great, but that doesn't mean that those from the bad areas don't venture in. He doesn't like the other windows *grrr*...

He's tearing at the blinds on the windows and trying to get outside. We can't remove the blinds *yet* because we have yet to get curtains on the windows (I'm working on that). He's destroyed two sets now in his attempts to get to the window and see outside. As for a harness, does anybody know...

He's not yet been neutered, and I know that having that done will help to make him happier indoors. There's just been a lot going on lately with a new baby just arrived and we haven't found the time, more than anything, to take him in. We're hoping to get an appointment for next week. Our...

Can anybody else who has a deaf cat (Nat?) share some experiences to help me out in figuring out how to handle Hullabaloo? He really wants to go back outside but after the terror of him going missing for two days, it's not going to happen again. The neighborhood is at least cat-friendly but...

He's eager to get back outside But he was definitely happy to see DH... He's been very loving since he's been back and seems happy to have a food source LOL
