My parents have a male cat who was neutered young. He is outside-only, and about 12 years old. From time to time he has had fight wounds. But, he always seems to come out on top, surviving, and still friendly. Let us know when you find him!
As I was reading through this post, I was struck by the fact that there's someone for everyone! That last one, "just a tabby" grabbed me. I love the dominant black stripe markings! That would be my first pick.
I think the scam works by sending you the $, including too much, and asking you to send back the "remainder." You do, before the check clears, and then, *surprise* the check doesn't clear. You're out the $ you sent back and your pets, if you sent them. Very sad. Very awful. Don't fall for it!
One of my kittens (out of 5) had blood in his stool shortly after he started eating hard food (4-6 weeks). I did some asking around and decided it was probably the hard food. It was too hard for him to digest. So, I backed off that and started giving mostly soft food. When we went to the...
My mama cat gave birth on St. Patrick's day this year. She had 5 and we rehomed 3 when they were 12 weeks old. It is an incredible experience!! Afterward, when the babies were around 3 months old, Pennie started getting mean toward the 2 we kept. She'd hiss and rarh. She got spayed, and 2...
Oh, gosh, I'm sorry about Shiloh. How very sad. If I were closer to you, I'd love to help! There is actually a man who posted on Craigslist who is willing to pay someone to take care of an abandoned queen. Isn't that great? Most people have adoption fees. He wants this cat to be...
When my cat had babies, she had 5, and I stayed up for 2 more hours waiting, because I felt what you are feeling. Thought it was another baby. I hardly slept at all that night, thinking she was laboring without help. The next morning, it was obvious that she was not in labor, and had just 5...
Again, I thank you all for your care and help!
After I posted last night, I went in and sifted throught their fur with my fingers. I found 3 big fleas on one kitten, and none on the other. I bought a flea comb this morning, and combed out 3 small fleas on the one (Rocco, same one who had them...
I will talk to the vet. Thank you. I didn't want to pay $14 each for a dose of Frontline or Advantage, and I had the Hartz. As far as the fleas being in our house, how will I know? They've been kept in our white-tiled bathroom 95% of the time. They have been in our living room and we've...
Thanks for the quick replies. I'll see the vet in the a.m., but it's 10 pm here now, and I'm not wanting these fleas here another second! Would another bath wash off the flea treatment, since it's been on for 12 hours? They still look greasy.
We picked up 2 kittens at a farm that was giving them away. I noticed right away that they had fleas. I brought them home and bathed them in dish soap. Then, this morning (day #2), I applied Hartz OneSpot flea treatment. Tonight I noticed there are still fleas. Can I rebathe them? Will it...
