So... Monday Rags, one of our littlest 11 month old fosters finally got to get spayed. She's still not 3lbs but we couldn't wait any longer. Those of you who remember last year we had a lot of problems with fosters from this group (brothers, sisters, cousins all from the same horder) dying very...

Yes, I said MALE CALICO. The veterinarian confirmed it. Today at the spay/neuter clinic I'm working with he had a gentleman bring in a male calico, about 4 months old. I'm getting photos of him tonight, but we want to know what a male calico goes for to a breeder if he is not sterile.

(last thread, for those who want to see: http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=207320) It's not her herpes. It's a puncture wound to the eye. Most likely happened around Halloween. She is in indoor/outdoor cat, and before some of you yell at me for that she's the kind of cat who will...

Hello! It's been a while since I've been here. Been hectic and busy. Got NINE kittens adopted out from my foster site last month! But on to the rest of the events... we've been battling Herpes... and some days I believe that it's winning. I know that in many cases when the eye gets ulcerated (i...

a new foster of mine has a severe dislike of feet. She growls and hisses at them but doesn't actually attack. I was told when I picked her up that some of the neighborhood kids kicked her around, so I understand the fear. How do I go about showing her that feet are OK?

Orsin, who was doing better has taken a turn for the worst. he has resumed bleeding from his anus and penis (although i'm hoping what I'm wiping off the penis sheeth is from the anus) I have been treating him with Albon for four days now for the diarrhea. he's three weeks old (we guess)...

I had someone bring me a very young 5-7 day old kitten last week, things were going well until last night when insteed of his normal hard yellow poop he out out yellow tinted mucus with a little blood. Today has been much the same, mucus poop, darker yellow. I don't want to raise an alarm, I've...

5.5oz cans at my local supplier are 1.49 each, by the case which is 24 cans it's (i believe) 1.39 each. I can't remember exactly what the girl said but I know it was around 1.30-something. I've never bought wellness except for the one can of dog wellness I've been using to medicate the sick...

A few days ago we were contacted by the same woman who turned over Milo's litter to us. Milo is the cat farthest to the right in my lineup up there, paws over his face in my cat photos. They wanted to know if we had room for four more kittens, who are Milo's (probably half) siblings. We know the...

http://www.savestevesplace.com/ The lowdown: Some mining company wants to acquire permits to strip mine on part of the Steve Irwin Wildlife Reserve for the next TEN YEARS! This will destroy valuable waterways and cause permanent damage to the ecosystem. The local wildlife there could never...

I've been so consumed by the deaths of yesterday that I forgot to post photos of new life here at my rescue home. One of the women who works with the group is a sheriff and she was able to trap four BEAUTIFUL (but VERY feral kittens) There is one more out there who hasn't gone for the trap yet...

Creamy just passed away, in my hands. It hurts a lot, but I know that he's not suffering anymore.

I found Mouse today, laying in one of the cat beds. It appears that someone smushed him in his sleep. Mouse was one of Cinammon's kittens, part of the rescue group. He would have been 10 weeks old on Thursday. I wanted to break down and cry right there because one of the other Queens came over...

It says I don't have permission to reply to posts there, why?

Some of the long hair rescues have been having this problem. First time it happened to Jinx (DLH) shortly after we took them in. We had to soak him to get the poop off, we ended up shaving his fur around the anus and genitals. He had what appeared to be hemorrhoids, we medicated it and it looked...

As some of you know I recently lost two kittens, one to an accident and one to coccidia. Creamy also has coccidia, He's the brother of the kitten who got smuched by the other cat. I couldn't stand loosing him and his mom is still mourning his sister. Though his coccidia didn't seem to affect him...

It's the inevitable side of rescue work that I really hate. Today two of our kittens died. Magick and Tiny. As some of you know Magick had gotten really sick and we didn't catch it fast enough, she went down hill so fast. She died in her sleep while I was at work. Dave's mom was with her so I...

So, I woke up at 5:30 this morning feeling restless and a little put off that Magick didn't crawl out of her box and curl up with me. We had a very productive night last night, she had eaten little more than 2cc of KMR right before bedtime and I was really psyched about today's possibalities! I...

One of the kittens is having a bad reaction to the strongid dewormer we gave them last week. Despite her diarrhea she hasn't been drinking water and has started loosing weight. I've started hand feeding her because she doesn't seem to have the will to do it alone. She's also started drinking...
