    One of our shelter cats died

    I am hoping that this is why she died. But, she was concerned that she may have been so skinny because she was sick, and that caused her weight lose, but judging by the frost bite on the ears and body/coat condition, I am assuming she just starved and she was just too far gone (kidnys failing...

    One of our shelter cats died

    My supervisor took home a cat that came in the other day and she died last night. When she came in she was so weak she could barely eat and was so boney at first we thought she was deformed (long haired, so we could see just how skinny she was untill picking her up) Her ears were also very...

    I feel guilty...

    Every body heals differently. If a kitten will help with healing, don't feel guilty. When honey died I got a retired breeder the same age and color and looked just like her (her name was millie) I ended up mostly calling her Honey, I was a little hard for a while, You may not want to do that...

    What you think of purebred rescues that save cats from bad breeders?

    Shelters can also have cats with health/behavioral issues as well. Just because a cat comes from a "pure bred rescue" doesn't mean it will have health/behavioral issues. Many of their cats can be owner surrenders or young kittens not yet affected by a mill situation, or even rescued FROM a...

    umbilical cord

    I have never seen one not fall off, so it should. It doesn't look red or infected though, rite? I am not sure if there is any thing you could put on it to help (like mineral oil or some thing like that) but I think it should be fine left alone and should fall off. Just keep your eye on it to...

    HELP! premature kitten and mom still preg!

    It is very rare but does happen. Often it will happen I think, because cats are induced ovalators and can breed several times as well as with different males. So the act mating causes the eggs to drop, and if she mates with a cat again mabey a week later, it causes them to be a week later...

    HELP! premature kitten and mom still preg!

    I had a simular situation a few years ago. I don't want to get your hopes up, because it is rare to have them stop labor and then continue to have the rest be full term, but it can happen. My queen delivered a still born kitten that was very small and trasparent and didn't have any fur. I was...
