Sad News.........."Gray Baby" didn't make it through the storm, and "Curious George" was just found dead in the garage. I had noticed he had not been seen for a couple of days. We placed a wheelbarrow inside the garage against the inside wall of the garage and lined it with foam and an old quilt...

Denise, You ask about my handicap. I inherited a disease called "polyscystic kidney disease or in the old days it was called "Bright's Disease". I am in end stage kidney failure with about 12% function left. I will be going on dialysis soon. This coupled with dibetes and arthritis and a anerysum...

My daughter tells me I am nuts to care so much about "my God's Little Creatures" but it is sooooo good to see I am not the only nut. I am in good company. I care for 6-8 and I also feed twice a day from my back deck. I made winter houses out of sterafoam coolers. ( duck taped the lids on and...

Just went out with a little warm milk and all my babies are there except for the tiny gray one. It was the littlest one in the bunch and I am worried about that one. I have always called it "Gray Baby" because it was so little. The others appear to be okay and were happy to see me.

Today the sun came out and I was happy to look out and see all my little friends. They had been hold up inside the garage and came out after we got the driveway shoveled. The drifts are so high they haven't been able to find their way around the house to the deck. I placed a bowl of food at the...

We have 36 inches + with 6-8 foot drifts. I have only seen one cat all day. My daughter cleared off the back deck several times and we placed a plastic ben sideways and put the food inside to keep it was getting snow. I have watched but only seen the one. I assume the rest are either in the...

I haven't been online in a while...Kids gave me a computer for xmas so I am back in business. We have a blizzard comming. I am worried about my 7 little friends that I watch over. Our weather has been so bitter. I feed them twice a day but they won't let me get near them. I know they go into...

I live on the south shore of Massachusetts (Fall River area) I called the MSPCA in Brockton, Mass and told them what I was dealing with. They said they had no funds for "special" cases that they only do routien cases. I called a second vet and his price was $275.00 for echo gram and $120.00 or...

I was on another thread but decided to make a new one. I have two little manx sisters, one with a tail and one without, both about 10 months old. Last Friday we took them to the Salvin Clinic in our nearby town to be spayed. They did Smokie Jo and she is recovering nicely. They refused to do...

Well, this morning was the day Smokie Jo and Samanthia was suppose to have their little operation. We took their food and water away at 8:00 last night and this morning they were not happy campers. They wanted fed and screamed all the way to the vet. Smokie Jo stayed and I am waiting the...

Thanks for all your support. I worry more about Samathia "sammy" because she is my baby. The kids found her abandoned before her eyes were even open. I bought milk supplement at the cost of $7.40 per 8 oz and feed her by bottle. I stimulated her so she could learn how to go to the bathroom by...

This morning I was watering my flowers just outside the front windowes and my Sammy was up on the window seat inside. I sprayed the window and scared her to death. She took off and hide under the bed all day . Tonight she came out from under the bed but wouldn't leave the room. I didn't think it...

What I am asking might appear a stupid question but is there a shot or type of birth control for cats to keep them from comming into heat. My daughter had a cat( like my Sammy with a hole in the heart) but she was unaware of the problem. She took her cat to the vet on her way to work and was...

I have a question. Smokie has an appointment for her little surgery to be fixed. (Needless to say she is driving us all crazy ) but Sammy was born with a hole in her heart and the vet told us that they hoped it would close by the time of her first heat. Sammy is just comming out of the first...
