Hello all, I've received some private complaints about our list starting to drift from its mission of late. While a certain amount of activism and off-topic (OT) posting is allowed (and appreciated), the focus of our main topic is getting a bit drowned out. This is a high-volume list anyway,

Hi Niki, I'm sorry your little Ziggy has tested positive. I'm sure you're already head over heals in love with him, how could you not be? When I first found out my babies were positive I was devastated and very confused. You've come to the right place to help you sort through all the

I had Cypro prescribed in a transdermal for my Gypsy. I'm not sure if it helped her appetite because she also started Pred at around the same time and that stimulates the appetite too. Nina [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: AOL Email Jenn,

We've been having this same discussion on another group. Evidently the information is true and is a direct quote from Ingrid Newkirk. I was given several sites to look at, but they did all come from pit bull rescue sites. I haven't had time to verify anything on a peta site. It was very upsetting

I believe, that the lady lives in a separate trailer on the same property and that this was the "cat trailer" but I could be mistaken on that, as I never actually asked that question. I can certainly find out, but my contact is out of touch until Sunday, so it will be a couple of days.

I agree about fostering military animals. But, this is not a case of us criticising how "they" treat "their" animals.American soldiers were shooting"their" animals. There's nothing very hypocritical about it. It's pretty forthright, cruel, and hateful. Those kinds of behaviors are not going to win

I agree about charging the parents as well. People just need to be educated about their pets. They think they know all they need to know about dogs, cats, turtles, whatever and just go get one. I also heard (or read) that Ingrid Newkirk herself was attacked by a pit bull as a child and 'personally
