Re: [Felvtalk] Cat in Ohio needs home
Poor baby. I'm so glad he has such good care at the end of his life. I have one like that -he lived outside for 15 years. Then my neighbor moved into a nursing home just abandoned him. He wouldn't let anyone touch him. Feral as could be. Now he is inside loves to be held - he only has 2 teeth, FIV+, crumpled ears, many battle scars from living so long on the streets, but I think he is perfect.

Re: [Felvtalk] Cat in Ohio needs home
A couple of comments: any cat with URI will have teary eyes and it may last for almost a month, unless treated with antibiotic ophthalmic drops or ointment. So it really doesn't have anything to do with the cat's FIV status. My cats have a very fastidious habit of perching on the edge of the litter box, like owls perching on tree branches. However, since most of my cats are of normal or porcine weight, over goes the litter box and I come in to a room I just cleaned and scrubbed to find pine pellets and dust everywhere, not to mention whatever the cat had put into the litter box in the first place. All over the floor. Aside from switching to clay litter and filling the box with 50 lbs. of the stuff, anyone have any idea about the tip-over problem? My last comment is this: anyone just happening onto this list and reading some of the posts would think that we are a bunch of lunatics having a bad hair day. Litter scattered all over, cats ordering us around, plastic and metal furniture, beds covered with plastic sheeting, disposable sofas? Until you have actually met a cat close up and personal, you don't understand. Then when you have, this all makes a lot of sense. Have a good holiday everyone. Put the Christmas Tree in the garage, away from the cats and use battery operated Hanukkah candles.

Re: [Felvtalk] Cat in Ohio needs home
Lee, You're right. I went to the grain elevator the other day to pick up feed for my horses. The woman there asked me how many cats I have in my house. When I told her 6, her eyes got huge and she asked what my husband thought of that. I told her that they are very well managed and that my husband knew who I was when he married me. No surprises there! Some can't conceive of 1 cat in the house and all that goes with that, let alone 6 and up!! And if people have an attitude about cats and have never experienced their sweetness then they won't even give them a chance. Their loss, and a big one at that! Good night everyone, I'm so grateful for each and everyone of you(-: Sent from my iPad that my most awesome kids surprised me with, Christmas 2010.

However, since most of my cats are of normal or porcine weight, over goes the litter box and I come in to a room I just cleaned and scrubbed to find pine pellets and dust everywhere, not to mention whatever the cat had put into the litter box in the first place. All over the floor. Aside from switching to clay litter and filling the box with 50 lbs. of the stuff, anyone have any idea about the tip-over problem? My last comment is this: anyone just happening onto this list and reading some of the posts would think that we are a bunch of lunatics having a bad hair day. Litter scattered all over, cats ordering us around, plastic and metal furniture, beds covered with plastic sheeting, disposable sofas? Until you have actually met a cat close up and personal, you don't understand. Then when you have, this all makes a lot of sense. Have a good holiday everyone. Put the Christmas Tree in the garage, away from the cats and use battery operated Hanukkah candles. Spay and Neuter your cats and dogs and your weird relatives and nasty neighbors too! ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org ___ Felvtalk mailing list Felvtalk@felineleukemia.org http://felineleukemia.org/mailman/listinfo/felvtalk_felineleukemia.org
