Hey all, I must reiterate that this list is for discussing FeLV, treatments, and support for caregivers. It is NOT a politics, hunting, personal soapbox, etc. list. We have a well-defined mission here to discuss FeLV. All of these other topics need to be taken to forums where such topics are

Hi Edna You must have a sensitive nose. I don’t smell it when the urine hits the clumping pine. I truly love this cat litter and so do my fur-boys, thank goodness. It really has improved immensely. I just wish Petsmart would not store it on the top shelf. The box is almost twice as heavy as i

Although this IS off topic in one way, as I said before, we do not live in a bubble and when, thankfully there are no cats whose caregivers are in dire need of FeLv advice, we should be allowed to wander off topic for a while.  Maybe we should begin our off topic discussions with the disclaime

But some of the statements about the platform itself were incorrect. So the platform was presented unfairly in some cases and that can be very annoying too. Maybe more so than actually bashing the candidate. Not that you or anyone else intentionally said things about the platform which were

I don't post very often but had to put my 2 cents in on this topic.  I think if more people would vote for the person they think would do the best job instead of getting hung up on the party this country would be a heck of alot better.  I have voted for Republicans and Democrats for President.
