We're shutting down TCS for a month's vacation. We're really tired so decided to take time off and send all of our team members on a cruise to the Bahamas.


Yes, that's an April Fools' Day joke... unfortunately for our wonderful moderators, advisors and mentors 
We also have a very cool interview to share this month. I interviewed Professor Leslie Lyons, last month's host of the cat genetics forum, and things got interesting enough for our conversation to generate a long interview, to be delivered in three separate parts. Stay tuned because there's some pretty awesome information shared there, some of it quite specific and practical, and some "just" fascinating and cool.  

Speaking of expert forums, and again, not related to parasites at all, we have a special guest with us this month, hosting another expert forum. If you haven't seen it yet - Ms. Amanda Novotny,  Special Projects Manager of Alley Cat Allies’ Law and Policy Department, is hosting a special guest expert forum with us this month. You can start posting your questions right here -

Stay tuned for the parasites updates. Heartworm in cats, Giardia and homemade flea treatments are just a few of the topics we're going to cover in new articles. In the meantime, you may want to take a look at these- 

Cat Fleas

Ear Mites in Cats

Toxoplasmosis and Cats

Thoughts and ideas are always welcome. You can post them as a reply here or in a PM to me. Thank you in advance!

Me too!  No cruises for me,  I'm afraid I am over-attached to my Mouse and don't like to leave him at risk of getting to prefer other people's company. 


Sounds like an interesting April coming up. 


Erm, @Feralvr, which photo is the funny one???

NO cruises for me either - seasick :sick: - very, very sensitive to any motion. SHEESH - are we picky - get a free vaca thrown at us and we refuse on account of not wanting to leave our kitties.

AND, UH..... what photos??? :scratch: :confused: :lol3: :lol:

I usually launch the photo contest around the second week. The theme isn't going to be tongues out though. Here's another clue - 

 


Other than that, I'm keeping it a surprise
