Hey guys, So Madonna has been struggling the past few months. We found out she had hookworms that had gotten her underweight. Once we got rid of those and on some better flea meds, we've been trying to get her weight to back up. She gained a pound, but she doesn't appear to have gained since...

Hey guys! So I used to foster cats a long time ago, and I stopped because it was becoming financially demanding. WELL there's this black stray kitten (almost a cat now) that's in the neighborhood that I've been trying to befriend. Today she finally let me pick her up. I wasted NO TIME getting...

Hey guys, So recently I had to take Madonna to the vet because she was having loose stool, and accidents all over my room. Found out she had hookworms, and so the vet dewormed her and we switched her food to a better quality food (Science Diet Digestion). Well she's doing a lot better, no more...

Hi all! So I recently found out that Madonna has a bout of gingivitis. I was thinking of upgrading her food. I got a small bag of IAMS dental care for them to try out, but now that I've been looking at online reviews, a lot of people say IAMS isn't that great. So, would anyone recommend a food...

Hi guys, so I got a new foster tonight who is pretty much eaten up in fleas. my vet was closed for the weekend so i ran into my petstore and bought a Sentry topical for her. i'm wondering if this is effective/good to use? if not, are there any store brand flea meds you would recommend?

hey guys! so my move to england has been put off indefinitely for now, so i thought.. what's the harm in one more rescue?? my mom found someone giving away this baby for free tonight. said she had to go ASAP. we go to pick her up, the lady hands her to us and says "she's all yours" without...

so one of the kittens from Princess' litter died a few days ago. he stopped eating and got lethargic and i think my attempts to keep him alive did more harm than good. poor lil guy died of pneumonia or just from having too much milk in his lungs i think. he had to be bottlefed when he was...

So i'm wanting to build something for my cats to climb / lounge on, but I'm interested in DIY solutions that are preferably low budget. i've always loved wall mounted cat obstacles: but they seem to be pretty expensive to buy. i've also thought about mounting one or two baskets to the...

WARNING: Graphic photos of the damage done to this kitty. http://www.examiner.com/article/cat-critically-injured-while-the-care-of-rowan-county-animal-shelter I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this? But one of the fosters I know shared this on Facebook and I thought everyone here...

okay, so i have three cats. all three are unaltered adults, and have thus far been unaltered because i've been spending more money on fosters and getting them healthy. i found homes/rescues for all of my fosters and i don't plan on taking anymore in for a long time (like, years) just so i can...

forgive the picture, he'd just knocked into the water bowl and i was trying to calm him down. so my mom came across this lil guy and brought him home cause he wasn't moving a lot and was in the middle of the road. poor little guy didn't make it the night. i think he was just an old kitty and it...

hi guys, so i have three cats left after finally finding my foster kitties new homes and rescues to go to. now that i have fewer cats to focus on, i can finally give mine the healthcare they need. i've made appointments at a really nice low cost clinic that the foster network around me use...

hey guys, so my mom brought home a cute Scottish fold kitty that she and some people found lying in the middle of the road today. he's pretty fat and decently friendly, but the people that lived in neighborhood said he was a stray. someone's obviously been feeding and petting him though...

So, I'm planning on moving to the UK in April and I'm having to find homes for the rest of my rescue kitties (and a few of MY kitties, since i can't take them all) in a bit of a rush. Luckily, I have foster friends that are helping me and a rescue willing to take them if I don't find owners. But...

hey guys, SO a week or two ago my neighbor found a cute mama kitty and her kittens and brought them to me (i guess i'm the neighborhood cat lady) and there are three kittens, one of them is short haired and the other two are long haired. i've been looking at one of them, and.. i'm wondering if...

hey guys, so my neighbor brought me some cute kittens she found. i've had them for a week or two. one of them got suddenly lethargic about four days ago, so i took him to the vet. the vet gave me medicine for diarrhea, worming, and coccidia, but she said he's probably suffering from fading...

hey guys,  so my foster vanilla decided she couldn't wait for me to get her spayed (i've been catching up on it for fosters lately) and had one cute lil kitten last night. well unfortunately, vanilla isn't a very good mother, she had two kittens over the summer and both starved to death...

Hey guys, I rescued a stray a week or so ago and named her Madonna. She's had dewormer, coccidia pre-treatment, and her first round of shots. A couple of days ago I noticed she was moving around a lot less and looked a little on the thin side. The same day she threw up twice and had diarrhea. I...
