    So my brat caught a chipmunk

    All my 8 cats are indoors only. My mom has a terrible habit of letting them out because they don’t go far and come right back. Coby caught a chipmunk and bought it inside without anyone noticing.

    Dear Bones,

    My mom texted me all day about you and I told her to catch you. She told me the troopers wanted to kill you. So I met you Saturday and I wasn’t a fan. She gave you a bath and you were so weak. I gave you a dewormer and capstar and she got the ticks off you. We set you up in the bathtub. We kept...

    Orijen feeders question?

    Hello. I was planning on switching my cats' food to Orijen but now that Mars bought (or is buying in early 2023) Champion who owns Orijen and Acana, I'm not sure. A lot of people are jumping off the Orijen wagon because Mars has a bad rep and might change the formula. I currently feed my old...
