    Is this cat pregnant or nursing?

    My sister has a been feeding a few ferals, and she’s worried that this female, 6 months old or less, might be pregnant or nursing. Can anyone tell by the nipples? Also, does anyone have any idea what that might be on this poor kitty’s stomach? My sister says it appears to just be mud and debris...

    Had Evo 95 (wet) gotten better?

    Does anyone know if Evo has recently changed their formulas? I thought it had carrageenan in it, but looked at it again today and it does not. It does have three other gums, but no fruits/veggies. I picked up a can of the chicken/turkey and one of duck. I opened one can for dinner and a few of...

    Socialization and Intros for very young, injured kitten???

    My husband and I just adopted a 6 week old kitten with a badly broken leg, Henry. He was left at a local shelter two weeks ago, so at this point, he's spent 1/3 of his life  in a cage, with a splinted leg, without a mother or littermates. He'll be on "cage rest" for several more weeks, if not...

    Need Advice: 4 week old kitten with broken leg

He was brought into our city shelter on Sunday, June 26, approximate age 4 weeks, with a broken left front leg. It isn't known how...

    Meet Henry! Foster kitten with broken leg

    Picked this little guy up at the Shelter yesterday. He was left there about a week ago with a broken leg. No one knows how it happened. It's in a splint for now with probable surgery in a few weeks. The splint makes him look pathetic but he seems to feel okay - eating well and wanting to play...

    RAWZ Natural Pet Food

    Has anyone tried this? http://rawznaturalpetfood.com/dry-cat-food/chicken-cat-food/ Is it a combination of dehydrated raw and kibble? The ingredients seem pretty good except for the tomato pomace. Might be too heavy on peas? It's interesting that the feeding guidelines on their website...

    AARRRGGH! Ringworm. Advice needed desperately.

    After 5+ weeks in my care, my 11-week old foster-fail kittens George and Alice were finally over their lingering URI enough to get their first vaccines today. The vet noticed a very tiny spot of something crusty looking on one of George's toes. It fluoresced bright green under the black light...

    Lingering URI in foster kittens?

    I am fostering two kittens for a local shelter. They were brought into the shelter on October 13 and their date of birth was estimated as September 6. They had a URI and were treated with eye drops and nebulization for 5 days. I brought them home on October 19. They were still sneezing...

    When I grow up, I'll look like...?

    One of my local animal shelters has some kittens that are unusual looking (at least to my untrained eye.) They're describing them as "blue smoke".  What do you think they'll look like when they're grown? Different than the typical solid blue DSH or "Russian Blue Mix" kittens that I see more...
