I live in a small town of only 890 in population. In Texas. The nearest vet is 17 miles away and they charge $160. However a great pet clinic named PetPals is about an hour away and they only charge $30 for a spay and $25 for a neuter. I have taken my own pets and a few strays there. They are...

I always did like having tags over being chipped because in this small town the vet AND the shelter are in the next town. If anyone finds a stray, most likely they are not going to make the effort to drive half an hour away just to see if the animal is chipped or not as that is the only way to...

I had felt guilty for a looong time. The only thing worse than missing him was not knowing where he was and if he was even alive anymore.:bawling: I had some slight resentment for the person who was SUPPOSED to be taking care of them but it was mainly anger I had towards myself:disappointed:. I...

I know! :lol: Poor Leo! The only difference between the two is his longer hair but that's from his dad.

Well Leo and his mom are still not back to normal but at least they can now remain in the same room together. However if he over steps his boundaries she WILL remind him! Here's a snippet of him attempting to be playful with her during dinner today.

Yes, he was still pretty young. He born on May 10th and never had a worry in the world. That's why I freaked out when I lost him because he wasn't used to being out on the streets. Even his "sister" Chloe knows how it is to be homeless. My sister and I were driving home after running a few...

I have noticed the difference in her behavior when it comes to Chloe and Leo. Of course, Sun was never a hovering mother. She was only 6 months when she got pregnant so she was not too fond of motherhood. She stressed a lot, lost weight, she definitely was relieved when they got to an age where...

So many questions lol:lol: I'll try my best to answer all of them!:caticon: First, Leo is 31 weeks or 7 months. His nightmares have subsided since he's been home. They were only bad the first day I got him back, I have not seen him have one since. So thank goodness! :clap2: The vet said it most...

I also had received similar advice when my cat gave birth earlier this year in May. Of course I didn't let her stay out for 24 hrs, I let her out for a walk once a week for only 15 minutes or so. But just letting her out of that particular room and letting her roam throughout the house will up...

I just realized I never told anyone how the vet visit went; the vet cleaned an older cut on his foot he must have sustained during his venture, besides that and being a little underweight he was given a clean bill of health and can now enjoy the holidays with family and his cat/dog friends...

While Leo is still not being accepted by his mom, he has earned Amira's trust. Then again she is a lot like he used to be, friendly and accepting to all. She tried to play with him but can't be too rough since she has nail caps and he doesn't. Chloe and him are back to their old ways: partners...

He's doing great, he seems really happy now that he's in a cozy comfy bed. His first night in warm house and a full belly.:blush: Thank you for the advice though, I might get these for another cat of mine. Amira is really timid too, she's okay with me but anything from outside frightens her even...

I'll see how they react to each other tomorrow. Hopefully they come to be friends again.

He's already a LOT calmer, he's acting a little more clingy by following me around and crying when I go into another room he can't go into but I totally understand. I would be scared of getting lost again too. Most of the cats recognize him except his mother, not really sure why?

His mother Sun came in for her evening meal but it appears that his mom doesn't recognize him! She hissed at him the moment she saw him and any time he passed by she growls. He recognized her and tries to approach her but she responds by either hissing or growling then rushes into another room...

Yes I'm so happy to have him out of the cold and home for Christmas! I honestly thought I would never see him again.:itslove:

I suspected that because when he wakes up, he doesn't do that. In fact he hasn't left my lap, I decided to watch a movie since I didn't want to disturb him. :wavey:

I sort of brushed most of his tangles out but he definitely didn't like his fur being pulled. I brushed as lightly as possible so it isn't as brushed as I would like but he actually looks orange again instead of that dusty beige. :D

I was definitely thanking my lucky stars for him being up to date on all his shots! That way, he would be semi safer out there. And Sun is doing great, guarding the chickens is her main job and she loves it, I bring her in during the night since temperatures have been dropping but she goes in...

That's a good idea, I let him settle before inviting the nephews over. I know they'll be excited but I'll try to explain as best as I can. They probably won't understand why other children would be mean to a cat. They grew up with so many different animals, they don't realize there are people...
