Texas Siamese Rescue recently took in an abused five month old kitten named Rumples.
At first, he walked on his right front elbow - it looked like joint problems on first sight. We got him in our Vet right away and they found an infection in
the joint. So after a week of aggressive IV...
I thought I'd cross post this message here in case anyone is looking to adopt. There are over 70 cats available, all ages and colors. Contact the rescue group if you can help:

Little Tyke from Houston AKA Tiny Tim is in danger.
He appears severely deformed - his rear legs stick forward almost straight out between his forelegs.
He copes well, bottom scooting at high kitten speeds and hauling himself up incredible...

Awhile back, I caught the tail-end of a TV news shot about two kittens that had been born within the walls of a ghetto apartment. I flipped the channel on in time to see the animal control...
this is a cool FUNdraiser sponsored by the Neuteress of the Night!
If you purchase one of these, please specify it is for Feral Folks of Austin in the comments field...and they will send a $5 donation to them to help spay and neuter ferals in the Austin metroplex!
Thanks...
Recently in San Antonio, TX...a Siamese breeder died. This person had no family and few friends. She left behind over 200 cats in her small home. It was some time before anyone realized she was gone.
If anyone out there can foster...please PM me and I will get you in contact with the people...
One of my friends just asked me if I could help out a couple of his Army buddies with their cats. They think they may be deployed any day now. These men are not in a 'combat' position, yet their support is needed overseas should this Iraq fiasco escalate into a war.
I completely sympathize...
Please say a prayer for my adopted kitten Sabrina. She has been very happy the last four weeks with her new guardians, and then came down with URI. She is only 12 weeks old. They are worried she will not make it. I've never experienced URI and I don't want to lose this kitten! And I don't...
Hooray! Someone has finally taken steps to make outlawing the declawing procedure illegal in this country! And how ironic that it would be West Hollywood...despite all the stereotypes of the shallow inconsiderate people wrapped up in their material possessions! I hope the rest of the nation...
Anyone out there with some good tips for dealing with URI? One of my adopters called me tonight to let me know the 11 week-old kitten they adopted from me has come down with URI. This kitty had a rough start...owner released to me so it didn't go through the pound. They also adopted two...
Is there a Scottish Fold Rescue in or near Texas? Just saw this little guy's photo on the local pound website. He is listed as a mix.

PM me if you know of anyone who can rescue him and I can help coordinate.
I'm looking online for a picture of a kitten in an invitation to play posture...arched back, tail in U shape.
I want to send it to an adopter so they can see if their kitten is playing with another cat, or is truly scared. They say my foster kitten is hissing at the other cat...but it seems...
I have to say that last Sunday at Adoption Day, at least three couples came by to ask questions about trapping ferals and strays for neutering! Hooray! the word is spreading!
It's so nice to know we're not the only ones who care about stabilizing the feral population through spay/neuter.
THANK YOU to everyone who has sent in donations! We are so close to our goal! If you can send in any amount at all - please do! Help us save Meezer Ranch!

From their wishlist...If you can spare even $5 it would help.
OK THIS IS THE BIG ONE! We LOST our LEASE! We have to CLOSE on Meezer Ranch or get evicted! Ouch! No reason, just the landowner wants to sell. We got a good deal to buy, we just are short $$$ of the funds needed to close, pay the...
Ok, so now one of the rescue kittens is probably sick. This is normally a very shy, timid kitten. All week he has been hanging back while the others scarf down their canned food. I've tried giving him his own bowl away from the others...no response. I had finally decided he just preferred...
ok, so I got home today and my female cat went potty, and I thought I saw blood on her anus. It really looked like blood at the time. Now I'm starting to second-guess myself. Her poo is kinda reddish brown. Could it have just been a little residue?
