    Natural Birth Control?

    www.wildpantry.com -- the dose is much smaller than 1 mL per day. Although.... not medically researched for kitties. they don't even recommend that the oil be given directly to kitties because it is too strong. an adult cat is about as big and about as sensitive as a human newborn, in my...

    Ethanol Poisoning In Newborn Kitty

    I want to write this back to Amber Technology (unsent): Dear Ms Estrada, When you mentioned the leaflet, I noticed it for the first time!!! I had previously thought it was just a tag. Here are my suggestions: On the box, write somewhere: "see insert for further detail," just like you...

    Response from Amber Technology: Dear Helene Berger, Thank you for taking the time to reach us. It saddens our heart to read the experience that you have gone through with your two precious kittens. I want you to know that we take matters like this seriously. It has been our policy for many...

    Ethanol Poisoning In Newborn Kitty

    Written to Wolf Creek Ranch on Tuesday: Dear (Redacted), I wish you had left the first sentence out of your e-mail. My kittens were fine and active before the tincture. I will send you photographs and videos from my phone when it is done charging. It was your oversight of "Newborn kitten...

    Ethanol Poisoning In Newborn Kitty

    writing to Amber Technology: Dear Sir or Madam, I suppose you are aware that your products are being sold by Wolf Creek Ranch in California. This complaint has to do both with your policy and with theirs, and has to do with some advice I received from them, that killed two of my kittens...

    Ethanol Poisoning In Newborn Kitty

    Research _everything_ thoroughly before putting it in your cat. I have heard several tales of cats dying at the vet's office. Most recently, somebody in one of my facebook groups lost a cat because she took her for spaying and the cat was allergic to the anaesthetic.

    Ethanol Poisoning In Newborn Kitty

    The short story: My newborn foster had a light respiratory infection at exactly seven days of age. I gave it colloidal silver in water but was uncertain of the dosage, so I contacted wolfcreekranch.com/ wolfcreekranchorganics.com to ask advice. The lady told me to give the kitten Vibactra...

    Cat Scratches And Ends Up With Wounds

    itching: diluted acv (apple cider vinegar) should be completely non-toxic. Never put anything on or in your cat when somebody tells you. Look up toxicity first. Even experts sometimes say the wrong thing.

    Squinting Cat. Third Eyelid Often Visible.

    Somebody (an old, fearful geezer) once told me that if you see the cat's third eyelid, that means he has worms. Calvin last received 1.5 Drontal pills last Fall. I have had one cat almost die from that pill, and one cat die. I am reluctant to use it again (and would only use any dewormer if I...

    Squinting Cat. Third Eyelid Often Visible.

    My Kitty, Calvin (large striped tabby with white paws and bib and a white triangle on the bridge of his nose), often squints at me when I first see him. When he looks at me, sometimes the third eyelid is stretched halfway across his eye. This often happens in the first few minutes of our...

    Neutering And Behavioral Changes

    So, I was going to bury him today. I rounded up Hops, Venom, Sarah-Kitten, Marble-Cookie, Mismo, Peter, and Dusty. They all came with me (except Mismo exited the herd mid-way) and did cat-things as I prepared what I needed to. Then Sarah sat on me and Peter sat on Muscat and wouldn't leave. I...

    Neutering And Behavioral Changes

    Muskitty was neutered January 27th -- it had been six weeks. He had never been in a fight with anyone. He was my greeting committee for new cats, slept and cuddled with all of them, except Linda and Kiddy and Trea and Mismo. Trea and Mismo are mostly loners (except with their daughter...

    Neutering And Behavioral Changes

    I wish I knew, but I highly suspect Kiddy, a cat that has lived with me since last May and still hisses at most other cats most of the time. I am pretty certain she is the one biting holes in Peter's fur, too.

    Neutering And Behavioral Changes

    To all the lovely people, who took note of and responded to my enquiry, Muskitten is now an angel. He was in a fight Friday night, and I heard the fight and did nothing because I wanted to go to sleep. Muskitten's friend, Venom, came to me all night. He walked on me and jumped on me, and I...

    Neutering And Behavioral Changes

    I had done research about vasectomies. My vet said that she would not put a cat through it, because it is a more delicate procedure and would not affect testosterone-mediated behaviors (spraying, roaming, fighting), so Muskitty would still be at risk for those. I keep turning it over and over...
