I'd be grateful for references to any documented instances of a wild eagle successfully attacking an adult pet cat. We have a ten-pound Lynx-point Siamese with all his claws who loves lounging on our wooden deck. There is plenty of wildlife around, which he enjoys stalking. Occasionally he...

We adopted this "Lynx-point" Siamese as a kitten. He started off pretty skittish but has grown into an adorable pet!

Our new lynx-point Siamese is early in his fifth week of treatment with itraconazole systemically for ringworm. The original patch is healing well but he seems to be losing fur across the top of his head and behind the ears. The only other recent treatment is topical fipronil + (S)-methoprene...
