The national news is now warning us ( humans) not to use just the internet to handle illness . The same should be used when helping our kitties .
Source the 5:30 news NBC or ABC ( I listen to it do not actually watch)Originally Posted by FuzMugly
1. Source?
2. Define 'handle'
3. Why should we trust the media?
What exactly are you suggesting? Shall we not post in this forum (Health and Nutrition) with matters relating to our feline's health? The internet is a wonderful tool and it us up to the user to use his or her best judgment. If your cat has a runny nose and the internet tells you to put it down, the internet is not to blame for the cat's untimely demise.
