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.

OK, it is official.  Oz has had "multiple" trauma (traumas?)

His hips, right leg and end of spine (tailbone?  Forgot to ask) ave
all received injury/damage, some multiple times.  Vet says still hard
to say his age with no teeth, but some of the scarring is thick and
probably been around a long time. Oz is a Sr citizen and has joint
problems. He will be on pain meds (as will the vet probably after this
last exam!)   And probably anti-inflammatory soon.

Because of the FIV he still has some eye seepage but cough and
sneezing are much less so he looks and acts a lot better tho still a
loaner.

Miss Kitty snuck out once so far and was more than a bit miffed when I
caught her and brought her back in.  Has no sense of humor that Miss
Kitty.

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.

Sounds strange but I have found that industrial strength double sided
Velcro works great for keeping things like scratch posts, dishes.
(especially water dishes they like to swim in), toys that require energetic
search/play and.litter boxes, in place on laminate, hardwood,
linoleum floors.

Kat

If things are ever dislodged I clean litter, fur, dirt, etc off the Velcro
with a flea comb and stick it back on.

Maybe youcould wedge the box between the toilet and the wall like I did.  We 
still kick it all over, but only in one direction.  I have a friend that says 
cats and doge are just like children who never grow up and leave home.  Her 
children have both left and her daughter eloped because moom kept hinting about

Most of my boxes are high and covered.  keeps down litter tracking.  I like the 
idea of using velcro, especially for watr bowls.  we don't swim in them but 2 
like to paw at the water and flip it all over the floor.  Thank God I hav 
quarry tile floors, just grab some paper towels or a mop.  Come to think of it, 
toys do get moved all over th house.  May try it on thm also.

Re: [Felvtalk] Cat in Ohio needs home

2012-12-12 Thread Marcia Baronda
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.
