    Shipped Canned Food Safe to Eat After Sitting in Ship Box/Packaging in Sun?

    Preventing Disease in Current Pets when Getting Foster Pets

I have one cat now, and I don't want to expose her to a new and possibly sick cat if there's something I can do for her to prevent many of the diseases before bringing a new cat in.

    Consistently Sick Cats

    Hello, I recently began volunteering to take care of some shelter cats in my area. They come from other shelters and so I'd imagine they could have all kinds of things happening with them but most commonly (as in, almost always) the kittens we get are sick - sneezing, coughing, sneezing blood...
