This weekend I had to send my sweet horse Billy to the Rainbow Bridge. His poor body was giving out on him and I did not want to cause him any pain or suffering. He got his favorite treats and went peacefully when it was time. He was such a good boy and he had many wonderful years. It is so hard...

I rescued a kitten Friday that someone decided to toss out. He is missing his right eye, and was cold and hungry, but that did not stop him from being a little love bug! He is a chocolate point himalayan. He is at the local vet right now, and I cannot keep him as we have our limit of animals. If...

My sister has a cat that showed up as a stray. She lives in New Port Richey, FL. She has not located a no-kill shelter in her area and needs to find a loving home for this kitty. He is not neutered as yet, seems to be around 6 months old, and must have been someone's cat as he is very lovable...

My 15 year old kitty, Beamer has had neurological issues in his back end for about a year now. He kind of drags his back legs and frequently loses his balance. I have had to wrestle with chronic urinary tact infections due to this issue as well. I have had him to 2 different vets and the...

For all of you WI people. What can you tell me about the Green Bay area, as far as jobs, housing (enough room to have horses) We have been tossing the idea around of relocating there to be in between our families instead of my bf being so far away from his.

Beamer, my first cat that was all my own is having a really tough time right now and I will be doing one last attempt to help save him before I have to take that painful step of having him PTS. He is 14 years old. He has a neurological issue that makes him weak in the legs, and also has...

A year ago today I was making the terrible journey that all of us cat lovers dread. I was going up to my cottage to lay my poor Bud to rest. He gave me alot of joy in my life and fought the good fight to the end. I nursed him through Hepatic Liptosis and he survived. He was a trooper until the...

Hi All! I have been extremely stressed at the job lately, and have been seriously considering taking online classe to be a vet assistant. Mind you I am 44 years old so vet school is not an option, especially working full time. There will always be a need for them, and it is something that I...
