    8-year-old-boy charged with torturing kitten

    I don't give a damn if he was abused there is no excuse for this and he needs to be stopped. It's this kind of behavior that leads to a life of crime, and blaming it on being abused is only the beginning of the everybody's a victim syndrome that gets criminals off. Many children are abused every...

    Rescue groups

    Is there anybody here who is active in a rescue group that visits pounds and takes out a breed or species to be saved? I know there are all sorts of groups, for all types of dogs and cats. Sadly, some shelters refuse to work with these groups by calling them if one of their specialty is brought...

    another case of hoarding

    A farm? That's hoarding too? Damn. I know tons of people in the country with more animals than that. They don't leave dead ones laying around though. Does anyone have the story of the tiger hoarder? It was in Calif. earlier this year. He had a lot of tigers, plus dead ones in the freezer, and...

    Need your opinions please!

    One interesting thing is that in some cases it seems those viruses run their course, dessimate a colony, then almost disappears! This has happened in two groups of outdoor (I won't say feral, some are friendly) cats I am aware of. In the late 90's so many were dying it was feared they'd all die...

    Is a cat crazy, cat loving lady welcome here?

    Thanks, you all are so nice! :hug: I have such a long history of kitties and so many experiences I don't know where to start. Here is a pic of the one who's on my lap right now, Bono. It's a sad and sweet story. Last year, I had a Bono just like this. I left him in a kennel for a few days...

    Feral Alert

    That's so sad. There was a shipyard I know of that was going to capture and kill the entire feral colony, but a local feral cat organization stepped in and volunteered to catch, spay, neuter, vaccinate and reintroduce them all. They were successful and it was a happy ending. Most of the shipyard...

    Pregnant cat

    My mother cat laid around for a couple days breathing heavily. Then she started to almost pant, and purr! I looked and she had discharge on her private. It took her hours to have them. She will lick up everything and eat the placenta. Making her a box might not do any good if she has chosen...

    sweet kitty needs home quick in Phoenix, AZ

    If I lived near you I'd be right over. Since you have a little time, is there any way you can find a different apt. that might let you keep an extra animal? Even some hotels will. I knew a lady who lived in a Days Inn for awhile with 3 dogs. It's much easier to get a cat in than a dog. Good...

    Animal Control rescues 81 cats in Lincoln NE

    That's very good. I didn't see that. Where I live, only the rescue organizations and some Humane Societies will do that. Among most city shelters I know of, "control" means "kill." I wish every city could do so well with them as Lincoln has. So I'm very sorry I insulted you, but I have seen some...

    Animal Control rescues 81 cats in Lincoln NE

    Rescues? Animal control will kill them. What a shame the nosey neighbor didn't call a real rescue agency instead. I wonder, did the person who turned her in really care about the cats, or did she just want the thrill of being on the news and getting the woman in trouble? I feel sorry for the...
