We caught two kittens in our traps and I was hoping the cat rescue I volunteer with would take them in but they said thy were too feral. They are going to treat, vaccinate and fix and then give them back to me to release back to the colony. I'm leaving for over a week on Thursday r I would...

Not sure if this is the place to post. I have a foster room and recently I had hardwood laid down though out the house. What is either the best thing to lay down on hardwoods that are easy to clean and is infect or what is the best way to disinfect wood floors?

First, how disgusting it was to see a worm. Yuck. Doc gave me strongid to give to kitten to give two days in a row every week for our weeks. After the irst treatment I did see worms in the poo (again,very very gross). After the remaining treatments I didn't see any more worms. I just gave him...

I didn't know where to post this. I've had foster kittens since July. They had tested negative for worms 3 different times but I just found a worm. It was disgusting. In any case, I've gotten the meds to dewormed them. I've been letting them run free while I'm home but not while I sleep and...

My 4 month foster kitten wouldn't open his eye so I took him to the vet. He scratched his eye pretty good. Doc gave me a drop one time per day and another drop 4/day. He seems pretty unhappy. Do you think I should separate him from the other fosters so they don't bother him? Poor guy.

My foster kitten, about 4 months, has runny poo. At first it was REALLY runny. Then it got more formed but very soft. Now it is kind of formed and then turns I to runny. Tested negative twice for worms/parasites. I was giving him some friskies canned along with dry out all day. Yesterday I...

My new foster babies. The tabby was scared of the air on wed but has made huge improvements.

So, I've realized finally that I have an official colony at my work. We've been trapping sporadically but we've decided to actively take care of these cats and try and catch all of them to get fixed. I don't know the first thing about taking care of a colony but I've been reading up on it. Do...

We caught some kittens at my work. I'm unsure exactly of age.  I'm trying to contact the rescue I know to see if they can take them.  I don't see why they wouldn't - they've always taken the kittens from me (notsomuch the adult cats).  In any case,  I've given them some Weruva shredded wet...

Found another cat. This one was clearly someone's cat. It's declawed and uber friendly. I've reported it lost at the appropriate places. This one lets you pick it up and everything. I'm going to take it to my vet tomorrow to get it checked out and to see if it has a chip. Do you think this...

I'm planning on having some pretty significant work done in my house. All new wood floors throughout the entire house. I'm also having my kitchen redone. I live in a 1400 square ft town home/condo, so there is nowhere to go for my boys. I'm not sure what to do about them when this all goes...

Got this new cat tree or my boys. They love it.

Hi folks.  We have a small stray cat problem at my work.  It is right near a questionable rental apartment complex and usually the cats we capture are very friendly; however, we just got one that isn't mean but she is very scared.  They let her out of the cage in my office but now she is hiding...

Well, I finally built up the nerve and thawed out the duck hearts for my boys. They absolutely loved them. Gus was growling while he the them. I love when he does that. I also liked how they could just be scooped up. I made sure to portion out the liquid as well. Are there any concerns...

My babies have been raw for a few months now and o far we are all doing well. I was thinking about maybe trying to give them some type of bone. What would be a good place to start? I'd prefer something that I don't have to do any real handling, if possible. Thanks.

So I noticed that the last time I cut up chicken it was in a slightly frozen state. Then as I thawed portions out in the fridge I noticed that there was quite a bit of liquid in there. In the past when the chicken was cut in a completely thawed state this didn't happen. This made me think of...

I've been Mia from the cat site because I couldn't navigate the site on my ipad. I finally figured it out. My guseepoo has had runny poo for two days. He was laying down sleeping and he was moaning a little. I thought he was dreaming. Then he gives me his hair all groan, gets up, and coughs...

My Ulysses has gingivitis on his left back side of his mouth. I'm pretty certain it's because I can't get him to chew his food. I'm slowly increasing the size of the chunks/strips of met I give them. Any raw solutions to this problem. Vet was really cool with the raw diet but suggested a non...

I didn't know where to post this, so I chose health.  My boys went for their check-up today.  They are each down an additional pound from last year's visit.  My Ulysses is down from his heaviest of 18.7 down to 15.7. Doc said he doesn't really have any belly fat but has a thin layer of chub...

I have a friend who always watches my cats while I'm away. She stays at my house - I love it. This will be her first time sitting with the raw diet. I think I covered everything with her. I'm nervous, though. I do have some canned food in the cabinet in case of emergency. lol  Anything special I...
