Hi. I was going through my old cat supplies and came upon some things I no longer need. With the holidays approaching, someone may need them. I am happy to send them to anyone in the US for the price of postage. The weight is 1 pound, 7 ounces. The unit requires 4 AAA batteries (not included)...

They do tend to run there. She has a greenhouse, a deck and a shed under which I think they hide. She is not a nice person, as she was the one who had Rikki, my raccoon I was caring for, executed. She does at least like cats, and told me a few weeks ago that she only has one old inside only cat...

Here is the tabby. Camera is in night mode. And the seal point.

We progressed to doing “blinky eyes.” Tonight a neighbor was mowing his lawn and Floofy was nervous, just ate and ran. Oddly enough she made a beeline to the neighbor’s house where my Felix came from 18 years ago. Something about that house… I *think* I may have seen boy bits tonight. The cat...

Last night’s photo: And now there is a third, a big tabby! Oh dear.

One of my old high school classmates is a vet tech. I left a message with her to talk about costs, timing and other rescue options. Unfortunately, the vet I met and really liked who did the end of life care with Brillo and Felix died himself two weeks ago today. I am kind of high and dry where...

Hi everyone, Here, I am, back at The Cat Site! I am still very much grieving the losses of my three oldies last year. I have sold much of my cat supplies, and have been embracing the pet free life. Well, in the last month or so I began setting up my game cam (critter cam) in order to watch...

I think your vet is correct. A surgery would be horribly painful, and then she would still likely pass soon, if she even survived the surgery. Mast cell cancer is relentless when it has gone internal. Love her and do what you can for her comfort. Look for signs she is ready for release. Any...

Hi everyone. As some of you may recall, I lost all three of my elderly cats within a 6 month span last year. It has been very hard, and I have not adopted any pets since. In early May we took down our cat fence topper, as I decided if I ever get a new cat, it will be indoor/harnessed only. A...

Thanks Cindy, Yes, there is always a need. I will know if/when it is right. In my case, I am the one who is home all the time with many hours to fill. My husband and daughter both work, and neither one of them really want another cat. That is where my hesitation came in on this. I had/have to...

Well, I am following up finally. I have been wrangling with my feelings for an entire week. Finally, today I felt like the kitty deserved at least one more look, and I went to the shelter with a carrier in the car. When I looked in the room, he was gone. I asked about him, and the director said...

It looks the same to me.

Chin acne. You may want to see the vet, but I had good luck using Stridex NO ALCOHOL pads twice a day. Use ceramic or stainless dishes. Plastic can cause chin acne or make it worse.

Tuesday I donated some of my deceased cats’ beds to the local animal shelter. They were well used, but still warm and usable, and it felt right to donate them. While there, I walked through the cat room. I heard a meow and looked down, and saw this handsome guy. His shelter name is “Fabio.”...

Anything done with kidney failure is a short term treatment. Toxins never stop being produced and I would think that changes from hospitalization would last days vs weeks. Kidneys are very finicky organs and once they shut down, the rest of the body will follow in short order.

I agree with the others. Leave her alone. You may want to try some enrichments for Henry, like taking her out on a leash or in a stroller. My Felix enjoyed that in the few months he lived alone after my other two passed. He was also 17.

I am truly sorry for the loss of your gorgeous kitty.

Cats can go downhill so incredibly fast. They fight and live their lives until their little tanks are empty. All three of my cats that I lost in the last year went downhill SO FAST. All three of them were released from life within 2 weeks of their first symptom. Your baby was showing signs of...
