A local rescue I know of recently removed 3 feral cats from a neighbourhood due to very real threats of being shot by one of the home owners in the neighbourhood. They are temporarily being held in cages because as of right now there is no place for them to go, but they can't stay since they are...

Thanks so much for sharing your experience!

Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm so glad Artie found such a great home with you, and you were able to find things that made him feel more comfortable. I have another cat that is a former feral, and Feliway worked so well for her! I used the plug-ins for the first 2-3 months after she...

Right, that's why I said I'm very skeptical. Just looking for people's experiences with using it is all. Personally, I don't see a problem with the alcohol being used as a preservative. As you said, it's a tiny amount, and even if someone were to give them the whole bottle to ingest, which of...

I don't know when they did it. His paws were "healed" (as much as they can be after amputating all of the most distal joints off his front paws ) when I got him from the shelter and the vet said it was probably done "years ago" at his first exam, and I've now had him for about 3 years. Thank you...

Hi Everyone, I'd like to hear about people's experiences with Jackson Galaxy's Spirit Essences. My cat was already declawed when I adopted him. His previous owners who surrendered him to the shelter had it done (I know this is a "hot topic," but I'm not looking to discuss declawing here. For...

@LisaHE  I made a separate post about what I made today. I didn't want to hijack this thread! 

Hi Everyone!  Thought I'd make a post about my experience with making my first batch of homemade food. Some of you may have seen my earlier post about my older cat being diagnosed with IBD. He has improved since I switched him over to a commercial raw diet (Stella and Chewy's, to be specific)...

I'm just getting started with homemade cat food, and we bought a kitchen aid stand mixer with an "aftermarket" meat grinder attachment. My husband and I really liked having something that can do more than just grind meat. He's used it to make our own ground beef, and today I made my first batch...

I just made my very first batch of homemade cat food today. All the supplements that I used, I bought at the grocery store, with the exception of taurine (which I ordered from Amazon.com). The initial purchasing of the needed supplements may seem like a lot, but they will last a long time for...

Thank you for posting your story, @Anmllvr My cat was recently diagnosed with IBD, and we are starting to transition to a raw diet for him. Stories like yours gives me hope that this may help him!
