Ok, just
Not all humane societies are that bad and some will take in less than perfect
cats but you really have to look and get to know the people in the humane
society. See how they've handled situations before and if they take in older
or FeLV or FIV cats when they run across them. There are several

I like the way Maureen thinks! I can help Maureen take care of all of your

Afterall, I will be 47 next month :0)

Hi everyone,
I was wondering what the general concensus was on giving a positive kitten
the FVRCP vaccination. Long story short, my recently adopted 12- week kitten
(Macey) was spayed and 1st FVRCP vaccine given, as well as Rabies, before she
was FeLV tested. 2 days later, she came down
Thanks!

Last August, a furry little kitten was saved by a woman who was gardening;
she saw a fox chase the kitten, and took him inside. She brought it to our
vet, and of course, I ended up with Jonathan, who was adopted in February.
However, this cat will never be vaccinated again (directions from our
Many vaccines may be carcinogenic, be cancer-causing whereas others may
cause growths at the injection site. Always check for lumps and remember
where any vaccines were injected. I believe that most vets have a system

I neglected to mention that I have many other negative cats who live in the
majority of the house, and I have the kitten, Macey, confined to my office

Hey, I love you two!!! I wish you really could move here when the
time comes. I am in fairly good health for 78, so I don't plan on
checkin' out anytime soon, but I worry about my cats a lot because it
could happen.

We don't have to be older to check out, we could be hit by a bus any
dayyoung or old - therefore all of us should have a serious contingency
plan for emergencies!

As much as I love my family, I would not trust them with my cats. They or ther
spouces are not cat lovers and I would never feel easy leaving my babies with
them. Like you say, they could take the money and dump the cats. That is why
I would rather trust strangers who have already committed

I have so many foster failures that I have more cats than most people so mine

my husband would keep several but he couldn't handle keeping all of them by
himself, and even if he did once he remarried I doubt a new
Seems like I read the woman in CA does have her property fenced in. She
doesn't actually have as much acreage as this other guy. She has a staff of

property is fenced in. But it seems like he takes in ferals and
26 matches
