Ever since Gray, Jr. was young he's tried to throw his fur-balls in the litter pan., and he's still doing it. Isn't that just amazing!   I wish I could just hug him if he'd only allow it! Today was my reminder of his tidiness - I was sitting at my computer - inside his zone area, and heard...

I'm just getting this in my news feed and I thought that it's an important warning to share. Here's a paragraph:  "... The FDA has received reports of cats in two households that became ill or died after their owners used topical medications containing flurbiprofen on themselves to treat...

Watching and learning about Feral-born cats is so interesting to me! I realize this topic may have been already discussed - yes I searched and most threads are pretty old, and some information repeats the behavior of a male cat harming or killing the kittens. I have twin gold-colored (aka red...

Topic: Tummy Hair Loss - Due to Heat? Briefly:   Cats Background:  I have a feral-born family that has an outside enclosure with free access to the A/C room inside.  This year, with the Daddy gone, the rest of the family (mommy and two offspring) seem to prefer the outside enclosure where the...

Callee, one of our Feral-born - has been in the Family room - Kitchen cat zone  for a little over two years now - still untouchable, but finally not running from my camera. Callee is a tiny cat - she looks more like a 6-month old.   I trapped her in January 2012.  After two years of living...

I just received an article (via RSS feed) in from  http://www.littlebigcat.com/catswalk-newsletter/catswalk-newsletter-november-2014/ where one section, in particular, caught my eye, and so I thought I'd take the time to share it here. This is the link to the vaccination information that...

I have to be brief as my time is in a black hole somewhere. 1.  It's a shame that my knowledge and my resources aren't enough to save Gray. He wasn't himself.  Took him to the vet - not his regular one - she wasn't in that day.  His third eyelid was not normal.  Even though he wouldn't...

I have a DSL hook-up. I have all my applications closed on my computer except for Safari - running 5.1.10 version - on a MacBook. Since the new website was launched I've experienced difficulty with the slowness of it loading, or changing pages, etc. Right now as I type I have to wait for the...

This early afternoon I  saw one of my feral-born cats bringing a bird into the yard - the bird was laying still in her mouth so I assumed that it had already been killed, and gave a big sigh of sadness for the bird. I watched as she headed for one of the bushes, I guess to hide her prey from any...

So, w h a t   IS    THE DEAL??? I'm stumped! Neutered - yes He does spray so his inside space is usually limited to his room aka "Zone", and the outside enclosure, with his family - his mate and their two offspring. One day I noticed that he peed on the water dish!!!!.  This was almost a...

This link will give a little background:  http://www.thecatsite.com/t/252228/feral-female-trapped-in-garage-12-12-2012 Basically, Pepper was able to find her way into our living room.  I'd been leaving the door from the garage to the laundry slightly open because of the high temperatures...

First - yes, there are local and state laws to guide us. Second - if the cat is an inside only cat - WHY? Third - if I have to - I can do it later Today, I took my 6-month old kitten - born of a feral mother - to the vet for her surgery. The kitten's name is Paislee.  She has been growing up...

He had surgery last Thursday (March 7, 2013), and I released him on Saturday.  I noticed that he was walking a little like he was in pain on Sunday, but chalked it up to the surgery. I didn't see him for the following two days, and became concerned.  On Wednesday he showed up for his regular...

http://miami.cbslocal.com/2013/03/11/obamacare-may-bite-you-at-the-vets-office/ I don't know about this - but vet expenses are already difficult to manage - ugh!  An excerpt:

Thought I'd share a video of a male feral-born being release from the trap - after being trapped on a Wednesday afternoon (he's a morning feeder so had to trap him early, ugh!), surgery on Thursday morning, and released on Saturday morning. The weather had been cold and rainy, but Saturday...

Guess why I knew when my cat bit me that I shouldn't wait to seek medical attention. This Website: http://www.thecatsite.com I've been one of the members encouraging others to seek medical help when they posted about being bitten - well, this time I had to take my own advice. First - to get...

Today I found an empty spool of thread on the floor - don't know why it's there, just thinking this could be one of the worse things to find when you have several cats living with you.   I don't know why it's there on the floor, I don't know if it was an empty spool before it got onto the...

This is the female that is trap-smart.  She has now given me three sets of litters.  That's a total of 11 new kittens!!!  Fortunately the kittens that I have been able to trap were two of the three known females - all the others in the first two litters were male.  (Yes, the males will get...

I've taken my 8th Feral-born cat into the same Clinic today. The surgeries and recoveries have all gone very well. However, I have this complaint about the Discharge Instructions - the written instructions only pertained to Pets - indoor and outdoor. I always get verbal instructions - and...
