    Ringworm Vaccine

    We have used Fulvicin in the past (oral)which causes diarrhea and when the anitfungals are used, they lick some of it off. We have found that Program has worked well for us. You can use it as preventative but we use it after it is spotted. In two weeks, you see new hair growth. It just seems...

    Thinks I'm playing!

    Have you tried saying a very stern "NO" and then getting up and walking off from him? Cats hate worse than anything to be ignored and this works with many cats I have rescued as I want them to be okay before I adopt them into new homes. When he begins this behavior next time, say NO and then...

    Ringworm Vaccine

    Yeah, I remember it being a pretty big pill. You'll have to call a vet to see what the proper dosage is. The only reason I know about it is when I volunteered at a shelter we used it frequently. They can tell you how to use it. I don't have the info at home with me to give it to you although...

    Ringworm Vaccine

    It is a pretty large brown pill and is in a white package with orange and blue writing. No, problem. Let me know if this helps!

    Ringworm Vaccine

    I don't know about the dosage, you will have to call a vet and no, you don't sound confrontational at all. I HATE RINGWORM!!!!!!!!! Several vets recommended it to us for the treatment of ringworm. We have over 150 cats in a 2400 square foot building and an outbreak would be horrindous. It...

    Starting a boarding Cattery

    I don't know of any sites that can help but I would advise visiting several vets or other catterys to see how they do it. We do some boarding at our rescue facility. The key is definitely isolation. I don't know if there are any legal requirements such as providing documentaion where you...

    Everyone, please read this story!

    Jewelcat- Has there been any progress on that situation of the cats missing? I have been thinking about it a lot. Also, I went to the website you had above and it didn't even show up in my last 10 places visited. That is soooooooo weird!

    Moving Day Approaching

    I would definitely tag them just in case they do get out. Also, when they come near the door, I yell NO in a very stern loud voice. They know it and run in the other direction!!!!

    Cat biting and clawing hands.

    Great ideas!!! I have one that gets really excited while being petted and holds on when you try to stop. The way I broke him is by completely stopping the petting but leaving my hand where it was (so as to not get scratched anymore) and saying a very stern loud NO! After a couple of times, he...

    sick kitty

    I have a kitty that is in liver failure and hers is irreversible. All I can do is try to slow it down. Actually we rescued two from a mentally retarded lady who forgot to feed them most of the time so they were very malnourished. Sometimes liver disease is caused by malnurtition. When cats...

    Spayed femal on heat? Help!

    I would definitely visit a vet and make sure there isn't anything physical going on. Cats are very sensitive to changes in their environment so she may just be freaking out a little bit since you have a new place. You can get herbal rememdies to put in her food or even kitty downers for her to...

    Ringworm Vaccine

    We have not had success with the Ringworm vaccine but did have great success with Program. It is oral and you will notice hair regrowth within a week or so and it takes around a month for it to go away. We only use it rather than any vaccine. Good luck!!!

    Commercials that frighten me

    You guys are so funny. I HATE that goldfish commercial. I am a vegetarian and it repulses me. I don't think it's cute at all. I am sorry I have missed the Belly button commercial. I will tell you that I really hate any local automobile commercials. I can have my television volume way...

    sensitive stomachs/foods

    One of my cats is on the Science Diet Sensitive Stomach food and it has done wonders for her. Sometimes, as cats get older (you said yours is 15, I think), their stomachs become less tolerant of some foods. I would check with the vet to rule out any illnesses first though.

    Getting Married. Where?

    Italy sounds like a great choice! I went around 10 years ago and loved it. There are some even smaller beautiful islands you can get to from Venice by a 30 minute boat ride. Good luck and let us know what you decide!!!

    Getting Married. Where?

    Anne- I truly admire you for sticking to your guns on this one. The good thing is that there is about to be a price war on airline flights in the US. I don't know if this will affect you or not but they are about to become very cheap from what I've heard. All we had to do is apply for a...
