Re: [Felvtalk] FW: Searching For Foster People / No Kill / Rescues in NY on Long Island
Sure, Natalie. POst away! Anything will help. I was lucky to be able to adopt out one from this brood, but after trying for months to find suitable adoptive parents via Craigslist in my area, I gave up. So many people want cats without strings - without a backup vet, and without the means to take care of them. I had to turn down nearly 30 people. I'd fell much better is I was dealing with experienced rescuers...so here's my #: 516-350-0131. It's a gmail #, so people can call absolutely anytime, even in the middle of the night, and leave me a message that I'll get next day when I log on. Oh, could you post the Animal SOS Alert URL?

Re: [Felvtalk] Off topic: President
I agree. As a wise person once said, We agree to disagree but not to kill each other over it, Maureen Olvey wrote: I really think this discussion has turned to a Republican bashing session. We Republicans disagree with almost everything you guys have said but there's no point of getting into it because no amount of discussion will change your mind. And that's okay because that's what makes America great - we can disagree without feeling the threat of reprisal. It is interesting to hear the Democratic views and what things you believe but some things are just not true like the supposed war on women. Mitt and Paul do not have the complete authority to do some of the things mentioned and many Republicans wouldn't go along with these kinds of things anyway. But it's okay with me if that's what you believe, I just don't think we can intelligently debate all the facts when we are not in the inner circle. I think we've worn the topic out and nothing you guys have said will make me change my mind about Obama and obviously I will never change your minds about Republicans so let's talk about something else like animal abusers and trying to get the death penalty for them. Just kidding - well kind of. “I am not interested to know whether vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn’t….the pain which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark TwainDate: Tue, 9 Oct 2012 23:43:25 -0400 From: at...@optonline.net To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Subject: [Felvtalk] Off topic: President Diane R., not only are you pretty sure - you are absolutely correct!

Re: [Felvtalk] The Price of Cat Food
I'm curious as to how much you are spending per day per cat feeding dry. I am able to feed raw for 70 cents/day per cat. If you didn't buy the chicken from Whole Foods, which charges about twice as much as do, say local ethnic butchers, then you could roll in for around half that. I've heard they have to eat more dry than raw, as it isn't as high-octane of food. Also, cats don't drink enough water to compensate for dry food, grain/starch-free or not, and stand a very good chance of ending up with CRF.

Re: [Felvtalk] Scoopable Litter
World's Best at Tractor Supply runs around $14.00 per bag. But it does last longer than the clay, is biodegradeable and weighs a lot less so I don't get a hernia bringing it in the house. I scoop 2 times a day and add new only when the box gets low so it lasts a lot longer and it seems to track less than the clay and does not irritate my nose like clay dust does. I have tracking only because of Dee, she is an overachiever wehn it comes ot covering. She even goes in the box and covers after others who she does not considerto have done a good job. Harley on the other hand does his thing and does not cover at all. Dee does it for him. I do let them out in early am and early afternoon. I live in the middle of the woods so no people problem, just critters and if they are not out at night, don't have that problem. They usually stay out for 2 - 3 hours and most of that time are on the deck soaking up the sun. This helps some on the litter problem as we do love dry leaves.

Re: [Felvtalk] The Price of Cat Food
Since Homey and Nitnoy, I feed half canned and dry. I also have water fountains and that makes a diffrence in how much they drink. I have to fill up the 2 fountains every morning and afternoon. Each takes 64 ounces. Course Casey spills some. She likes to bat at the water before she drinks. I never thought about how much per day per cat, just feed them. I usually give about 1/4 cup in morning, afternoon and evening of the dry Blue Buffalo and 1 can divided by 7. I mix the can with 2 cans of hot water. The heat makes it smell more and they always drink the liquid and later on eat the meat.

Re: [Felvtalk] The Price of Cat Food
I spend about $1000 a month with a population that ranges from 25-40, depending on adoptions and new intake. We feed primarily canned but with dry (mostly Kirkland Premium and the no-grain in the orange bag). It's a big chunk of money every month but the cats are happy and healthy. For the past year I've been planning ahead and buying discounted PetSmart gift cards through http://www.giftcardbin.com/ and http://www.cardpool.com/ They also have petco cards but nothing for Costco. Take a look. It really has helped my budget. (I recently combined gift cards discounted by 18% with the PetSmart Friends Family sale discount of 15%, and used a few random coupons. For awhile there I had a lot of cases of friskies stacked up in the living room!)

Re: [Felvtalk] The Price of Cat Food
It would be nice if I could do that but I'm feeding around 35 cats right now. Feeding raw would cost me around $9 a day with turns into around $250 a month. On top of which, I would be a little nervous to feed raw chicken to the cats. Some of them probably wouldn't even understand what it was while others might throw it up at first. Cooked chicken would add about 3 hours work to my day. My freezer would be full of frozen chicken, not defrosted in time for their dinner and I would go insane. The dry food costs me about $100 - $150 a month. With the price of Kirkland going up it would cost me about equal to that because they eat less of the Kirkland due to fat content. Seems to fill them up better. I used to buy Friskies regular type, and Purina Cat Chow (no one wanted to eat that). Then I bought HEB brand Hill Country Fair and all the cats began throwing up in unison. Stopped buying that also. They seem to be able to digest Paws and Claws, the Tractor Supply brand that cost $20 for 36 pounds but the older ones lose weight when they eat it. One of my cats, Isadora lost most of her fur (long hair) and had scabs and sores on her skin. I began feeding Kirkland about 3 months ago and the other day I realized that Isadora had no more scabs and had grown back her fur. The fat content did her a whole lot of good. She looks like she has gained a pound or two and is much more active. Mr. Buttons (Big Butt-tons) also gained weight on Kirkland. I need to widen the doorway for him. I will probably have to keep buying the Kirkland and just work harder. Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too!

I spend about $150.00 to $200. a week on cat food and litter and it is infuriating how they keep cutting the size of the bags! Every few months there is less in the bag.

Re: [Felvtalk] Scoopable Litter: The Return of the Clump
This is a horror story. It's true. My cats will tell you it is. One day, several years ago, I decided to purchase clumping litter. In those days I was using Traditional, a brand put out by HEB supermarket. Traditional is a white litter, not too much dust, at that time very inexpensive. Then I saw HEB Scoopable. It wasn't very expensive so I lugged a couple of bags home. Now, the horror part comes when you realize that I knew nothing about clumping litter except that it clumps when hit with something liquid. So I poured the same amount of clumping clay into the cat boxes as I had with the ordinary stuff. Sigh! Once in a while I should read directions. The litter clumped to the bottom of the box. Solid. Cement. Mixed with cat piss. I had to take all the boxes out to the yard and use a hack saw to get the litter out. Finally, hammer, chisel and garden hose got the boxes back to usable state. Five hours wasted. Cats giggling inside, waiting to see what I would do next. I read the directions. Needed was at least three inches of litter per box. Ten boxes. Five bags of cheap clumping clay. Ah. It clumped. Did not stick to the bottom of the box. Each perfectly formed clump weighed about three pounds. Hernia time. I purchased 5 bags of litter, each weighing 20 pounds. I filled up about 10 boxes. Used about 5 of the bags, give or take a few grains of sand. Half a bag to a box. That would be about 10 pounds of clay per box. After all was said and done, I got over 24 pounds worth of clumps out of each box. I wish someone would make litter out of silver dollars that would triple when hit with a liquid substance. Used up an entire roll of garbage bags. Sanitation department workers had to be hospitalized for hernias. It was around that time that I discovered Feline Pine. The cats were a little startled at having to do their thing on something that smelled like wood and rolled around like marbles but they got the hang of it finally. Some like to bat the pine pellets all over the floor. They especially like to bat them over to the door so when I come into the room I step rolly-polly pellets and go skidding into a wall. Need a book on cat behavior modification. Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too!
