    A Pill Pusher? What is it and where can I get it?

    As noted in another conversation, I also have problems getting the cats to take their worm medicine, and for some, it has always been impossible. Where does one get a pill pusher? My vets have never mentioned such a thing.... Sometimes I feel like I live in the back of the beyond.

    Black lights & worming paste available in Israel?

    I would like to find one of the black light torches mentioned by a number of people on the forums. My vet tells me that they get theirs from a vet supply agency and that they cannot order me one. Is it just plain old ultra violet light we used to have in our hippy period? Also, I saw on an...

    Oops, sorry

    Yesterday I took a huge green chameleon to the Beer-Sheva Zoo -- my cats had the poor fellow cornered against the garden wall, and the dogs were beginning to move in on the flanks. I just didn't know where to take him, so after calling around a little, the zoo was the only place that agreed to...

    Managing health in a multi-cat household

    Would anyone like to discuss the health and hygene problems relating to having multi-cat (or multi-species) households without the formality of kenneling the animals? I know there is a forum for health and nutrition, but colonies of cats, both in-house and outside strays and ferels is really a...

    A Tragic but Satisfying Tale

    I have been reading all the chat on this particular forum with special interest, since I have been trapped by the wonderful, beautiful, and dignified stray and ferel cats of the northern Negev Desert to take up this crazy business of rescuing cats. We live in a place where there is almost no...
