As long as your other cats are vaccinated and healthy they should be fairly OK. If he had distemper, your cats would be protected, Leukemia is iffy. I would have him tested like said above so you know for sure what you are dealing with. Please don't freak out until you know. it could be just a...

Cats are not categorized by breed unless they are purebreds and have papers. Which the vast majority are not. Purebreds almost always have standard characteristics and colors, such as pointed on the Siamese with blue eyes, smashed face and long hair with the Persian, etc. Cats without proven...

After a perm disaster over 40 years ago where I looked like a poodle, I have cut and styled my own hair at home. I colored it for many years at home too after seeing how aged my MIL was after letting hers go gray. Now that i am near 70 I don't color it for 6 months at a time, somehow the blond...

I raise my kitten count to 3or 4! Thanks for the update. I pray she delivers safely……

You can tell she was content and well loved. What a beautiful face! I send my heartfelt condolences,it hurts so much to no longer have them in our daily lives....... One day the intense grief you feel right now will convert into gratitude for having her share your life for so many years. But...

White bread for sandwhiches, a must for grilled cheese.(multi grain/whole wheat gets soggy) and rye for eating with cheese and on patty melts.

I use Miracle Gro too! They have it for roses, vegetables, lawns, acid loving plants, and general purpose.

Anything to get rid of the pesky things. I looked down the other day and saw one of the little vampires on my arm! ???!!! It is still getting down in the 40's here at times!

Lip smacking and drooling usually indicates nausea. It may be the metacam, that is one of it's biggest side effects. My cats had no pain meds and came through fine, you might call your vet and ask if you can discontinue. As long as he is eating/drinking/using the litter box and not hiding, that...

Any good garden fertilizerwould do. you don't want a lot of nitrogen, that produces a lot of green growth at the expense of fruiting. I like 10-10-10 or 12-12-12. This is available at most garden centers, I just got mine at Walmart.

Please keep us informed!

Yes, a small litter, most likely 2 kittens. Any female cat that is over 4 months and gets access to teh outdoors is most likely pregnant. Remember, she can come into heat again just a couple of weeks after giving birth, so don't let her out. This having endless litters will be her life if you...

I have said it many times, let your vet decide that final decision, they have seen this senario so many times, and do not have a heart and mind ruled by love. If there is no cure, only more pain and suffering in the future, that is the time....... Now your suffering begins. Guilt, second...

We finally got several big rains here in NE, the ground is nice and soaked. Perennials are all coming up, my long berm of cone flowers will be beautiful this year, it is full of flowers and they are 1.5 feet tall already! Everything a little late, been kinda cool here at night, is 43 right...

That does seem excessive. Is there an emergency vet you could call, or even another vet to ask? Side effects can include hyperactivity, usually sedation though. DO NOT just stop the med. that may be worse. I have found that vet assistants do read orders wrong and give bottles with wrong doses. I...
