    How to get started in rescuing (when there's a need but no infrastructure)?

    Very fussy cat with allergies, what should I feed him

    @JillBFrog Cat food needs to have meat in it as cats are obligatory carnivores.

It's not likely that your...

    Excuses on why you don't want someone at your house

    If someone wants to come over and I'm not expecting them I would suggest meeting at a restaurant instead. Usually I ask if they're allergic to cats or dogs and if they answer yes then that solves the problem for me.

    1 out of 5 Cats has Loose Stool, Poop Residue

    I have 5 cats. All 5 are fed the same food. But 1 kitten occasionally has loose stools, scoots and now seems to be having residue on her butt. I took her to the vet just a few days ago and her anal glands were not impacted. I don't suspect worms because the cats all share litter boxes and I...

    Is this a Torbie or a normal marbled cat?

    I would LOVE to adopt them and spay them and take care of all their shots and stuff but unfortunately I am not living alone and one of my roomies is allergic. There is always a possibility though.
