    Ari can Finally Jump & Run...

    Thank-you so much...really beautiful!! Fortunately, when the whole incident occurred at the vets. office, I was with a friend of mine. She followed me home and we sat & cried together. I remember her telling me that when she walked into my home, she saw a flock...yes, a flock of butterflies...

    Ari can Finally Jump & Run...

    A big & thanks to all...your words are very comforting. You would think with 14 other tails running around here, there would be no void...but the silence without him is so apparent. I never realized how much attention he really received until now. It's almost like I don't know what to do with...

    Ari can Finally Jump & Run...

    Thank-you for remembering those posts of mine...appreciated. I was so thrilled for him when he got to that darn level of the cat condo, I just had to post a picture of him doing it...he looked like he was truly smiling & proud. I felt like a mother watching her baby get on the "big" school bus...

    Ari can Finally Jump & Run...

    Ari came to me a little over a year ago as just another foster baby. Emaciated, ridden with fleas and shaking like a leaf. When the shaking didn't stop, I brought him to my personal vet. and he was diagnosed with cerebellar hypoplasia. I was told he would never be able to jump...never be able...

    New Addition - Welcome Leo!!

    I actually did let him go...he was adopted-out when he was about 9 wks. old and returned...I had no intentions of keeping Leo. Leo has had severe diarrhea and/or constipation problems since he was little. He was returned for that reason & unfortunately in & out of the vet. too many times to...

    Not sure whats wrong with new kitten

    If it is available, a good baby food always entices the little ones to eat. Recommend Beech Nut venison, turkey or beef flavors...no additives. Just add a little plop of it on top of wet food...they usually go wild over it.

    Cat w/constipation ? what kind of food

    Had similar problem w/14-week old foster...basically had constipation problems since he was 10-days old. Anemias, lactulose, flagyl (for intestinal bacteria build-up), Fortiflora (purina), etc. was given to this poor little guy. For whatever it is worth, I took him off of ALL of the above...

    It has definitely crossed-my-mind to hold onto little ole' Chico...but...I have soooo many cats!! It is some real work over here at the zoo I usually end-up keeping those that do not get adopted...will see about Chico.

    Buster & Fidget :)

    It seems Buster is the cuddler of the fosters & another male I have, Jimmy, is the kitten-car-wash of the fosters: Jimmy & little Tom Buster doesn't seem sad when the fosters leave...simply beacause they never do leave...this house is NEVER without fosters

    Goat Milk Question/Bottle-Babies

    How old are your bottle babies and how often are you feeding them? Babies are 4 weeks today...and feeding schedule varies (unfortunately). They seem to be okay for approx. 5-6 hours but if I am close-by their cage area, their little "spidey" senses seem to kick-in and they scream to be fed...

    Goat Milk Question/Bottle-Babies

    Anyone use goat milk for the little ones? I have been using goat milk for some bottle-feeds (rather than the normal KMR)...feel it is superior to human, cow & store bought formulas...but the little ones have diarrhea. I have been following a recipe from the mfg. for kittens but now wondering...

    pumpkin for kittens

    I recently had several kittens w/similar problem...major constipation! Also, brought to the vet. to help w/problem. Pumpkin works well but sometimes causes gas...you could try some Slippery Elm...can find in any good health/vitamin store.
