The old administration had begun putting down kitties with ringworm precisely because it is contagious and so hard to get rid of - but usually NOT life-threatening. New board members opposed to this policy were voted in at a rather contentious annual meeting for which security guards were even hired. The new administration now has a trailer or other building behind the regular building in which cats with ringworm are isolated and treated. Right after that meeting, I looked at the kitties for adoption; I saw one of the security guards looking too. We both found kitties we applied to adopt! Mine was my sweet orange girl Rosalie. There was a BIG sign on her cage that said "Litterbox Problems!" She has never had any such problems with me; she is just a fastidious girl who likes a clean litterbox. On her surrender papers, her previous owners had checked off that they cleaned her box ONCE a week!! Can you imagine. I didn't mean to write so much; it's below zero outside and I am stalling about making a necessary run to the grocery store :) Bonnie and the naughty nine. ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Saturday, January 15, 2005 10:32 pm Subject: Re: I'm worried abt Levi > > > In a message dated 1/15/2005 11:20:32 A.M.
