I love that name its SO cool. And i love names even better when they are spelled different. Like Maree instead of Marie. Or Jessika isstead of Jessica.
Oh and I have a problem with Kalli.
On wednesday she went into Heat??!!! So I guess she Not? pregnant. We were going to call and make her an appointment to get fixed on Thursday, because it was too late to do it on wednesday. But on thurday (iwasn't there but this is what i've been told) a black male tom showed up. And I guess he was on her. For the most part of the day. I got home at 9 that night and I didn't see him . But then he was here the next day and I couldn' t get near him because he ran . Today he isn't here, I guess hes moved on to another female cat in heat.

So i guess shes wasn't pregnant since she went into heat. But now I'm guessing shes pregnant again.
Shes 21/2 aprox. according to the previous owner and she hasn't had a litter of kittens before. (i guess they kept her inside when she was in heat) I just talked to them over the phone but they had to go. So it wasnt a long conversation, and I think they thought i was being nosy callign them up. But I really wanted to know her history.
If she did get pregnant I amd going to let her have them and not abort. Since i was planning on doing tthat before. And shes not really "young" to be having kittens or anything. But... ?

~Yup I LOVE the spelling too. My name is Kymberly...while most is Kimberly....Kym for short. Everyone always says hmm didnt you spell your name wrong and Im like Umm I THINK I know how to spell my name haha~
If she wasnt pregnant, and you only saw a male mount her once, please do get her spayed, it is better for her all round.
Yes, i agree with Booktigger.. PLEASE get her spayed asap. A healthy animal is killed every 6.5 seconds in this country through euthanization because people let their cats and dogs have 'just one litter.' It is really unfair to the existing cats and kittens out there.. Plus it is beneficial for her health to get her spayed the sooner the better.
ok am lost she is or isnt prego
SHe spayed now. OK I am truly lost lol

And I'm not sure to as whether or not shes pregnant. I mean i was for sure she was and then she went into heat. Which totally suprised me because i thought she was pregnant. So we were going to call to get her spayed since she went into heat so we thought she couldn't be pregnant. But the next day a tom showed up and stayed for 2 days. ANd he was on her very frequently according to my family. So i guess if she wasnt preg. than she could be again. or not even again but .. confusing.
I called the vet. in my town and he said that condierign her age and healthiness she shouldn't have any problems delivering .
I really would get her spayed but it would be really hard for me to abort the kittens. Even if my mom did let me. She would pay for her to be spayed but she wouldnn't let me have the kittens aborted. She doesn't believe in that, unless in certain situations (i.e. 4 month old preg kitten).
I also am seriousely focusing my attention on my dog. He is really sick and we are taking him to the vet tomorrow for the 5th time in a month. He keeps getting sicker and he has a fever. They might have to do surgery to remove his eye becuase kalli scratched it 3 1/2 weeks ago, and now hes got another infection behind his eye. and we think hes blind because its turning blue. And so he really is keeping us busy.
Actually, if you had her spayed now, they wouldn't be kittens, and it is better for her and you, especially if you have a sick dog, you dont want to have the extra expense of feeding a pregnant mum, poss pay for a C Section, and then the extra food and litter afterwards.
WOW poor dog please keep us posted on him.
As for the cat there is no babies yet so if ya want to spary her it is ok it is your choice. So dont think I am jumping on you at all. Each has there own decisions on things.
Well I wont be on alot today going to walk and try to get active to get Abby going but I will try to keep posting and watching for updates ok...
Keisha -- if you don't spay now, then you will have up to ten or more cats to get spayed in neutered in a few months. If your mom is willing to abort in some circumstances and not others then maybe she should question her beliefs.. Either it is wrong or it's not. Are you going to keep ALL these kittens, plus get them fixed? If not, you are going to be contributing to the needless deaths of existing cats and kittens.
Please don't take this wrong but on this site we do respect the belief's of others and it isn't appropriate to tell keish her mom should ? her own. ok Don't take it wrong I am just letting you know. They have a right to there own decision's.
This is exactly why i stay off threads like this...this is my relaxing time away from kids fighting...I don't want to hear or see the opinionated confrontations...this is for hobby sake for me i love cats..i do beleive in spaying,i don't beleive in spaying and aborting for my own reasons...upbringing. i do beleive in taking care of unwanted Animals and getting the fixed. I do understand the important situation in overpopulation of the feline race...Anywho
P.S. i do understand the importance of teaching.....but please please teach them with kindness...

By expressing my opinion i am in no way hindering her ability to do whatever she wants.

As for my dog. Hes been going to my local town vet, who we usually don't go to. But we did becuause it was an emergency when he just got it scratched so we took him there. Thats why we took him there the other three times. Because that vet knew his problem and what hes been given. This time we tried to get an appointment there but the only vet. we have in town (the other ones got fired; they were pretty terrible, but not like this one was any better) was at an Antique Auction! And he didn't want to miss it, so he wouldn't take any patients in !! So we went to the town next to us's vet, who we usually go to. My mom went to high-school with him. So we know him well. They got him in right away. And we found out that the reason he is getting worse is because the vet in my town was treating him wrong!!!
Seriously if that was happening to my dog I'd be devastated. I'm so sorry you're going through this I can't even imagine. If you need someone to talk to just PM me or something, that stuff's harsh.Originally Posted by Keisha

And it also caused his iris (i think that is what it is called) to move out of place! SO his entire eye is blue and milky. And I guess he now has a worse infection behind his eye. So hes on 3 kinds of drops twice a day. 1 antibiotic twice aday. Pain medication twice a day. And his normal seizure medicine once a day. And we have to wash it out frequently. The poor dog is all doped up.! And now he has a good chance of loosing itor going blind in it!

that sounds awful for your poor dog, I am so sorry. As for your cat, cat's dont have maternal instincts like we do, so if she could talk, she wouldn't be saying 'yeah, I really want to be a mom' - and with how serious things are with your dog, an abort and spay really would be the best thing, she will be fine in a couple of days, and you can put all your time and resources into getting him better, without having to worry about the extra cost of kittens. Good luck
