When I had cats that were indoor/outdoor I trained them to come to a Dog
Whistle. It is a very easy thing to do. Adjust the whistle to where you
can hear it. Then for 1 week blow the whistle each time you call them by
name, or call them to come in Like here Kitty Kitty. At the end of the
week only
Hi, Before I would gve her anything I would contact a good SPCA near
where you live. or a Vet College near where you live.
Please don't blame yourself.Tthere is a strong chance that even if you
had been there nothing could have been done to save her. Ever time a cat
is Anesthesied there is a chance they may not make it.
I have found that my Fixed Toms make grate surogate mothers. My

I am so sorry. I can relate to how you feel.
Yes..Cats do snoreI have had some nights when I felt I was trying to
sleep in a very large dorm. I have one cat that makes strange sounds
while breathing. I have had her for 5yrs. and she is as healthy as a
horse(as the saying goes) I whould still have your Vet check out your

May I suggest that when you need to replace bedspreads but large sheets
with a pattern. From a distance they look like a regular bedspread. They
are also a lot easier to wash. I picked this hint up from a neighbor of

Hi, I use to have 18 cats both -+ and I had no choice but to mix them
because I live in a one bedroom condo. To the best of my knowledge none
of my - became +.
Many of my + lived long enough to die because of problems that come with
old age. And then some of them died as young as 3mos. of age. It

What I have used for many years are carriers wit Turn Locks Turn Locks

Hi, The medication used is in pill form, but the medication can be

It has been my experience that 99% of FIV+ cats live to die of things
related to negative old cats
This could be because if the FIV+ cat (Licks) washes the FIV- cat and
then if the FIV- cat licks it's self on the spot where the FIV+ cat
licked him/her and said cat has a break in the skin in it's mouth it is
then possible that the FIV- can become FIV+
Hi, I am so happy you decided to go for an Ultrasound. Where to go from
here? My own experience has been to go with what my Vet has to say. I
have been rescuing FeLV+ for 13+yrs. and have been with the same vet for

a Vet

the Doctor told me that he is seeing a lot less positive cats than he
has seen in previous years.
Hi again, I had one that lived 10+ yrs. They use to say that positive
cats did not live past age 3yrs. You must remember that some cats that
test positive could be carriers. I have had some die of things that go
wth Old Age. I do hope that every one of mine that tests positive
could be a
Hi, Have you tried to get the Meds compounded? I have mine done and
it makes medicating my cats so easy.
Hi, For the IV's, shots and examination you may want to try a Squeeze
Cage. If you can get the cat into a Trap then you can transfer it to
the Squeeze Cage. If you put newspaper under the bottom of the trap
you can keep a cat in a BIG trap for a few days.I don't know if you

is don't move the furniture around. They don't have the mental hangups
than people do. I

Hi, I use to have 18 cats in a 1 bedroom condo and they all got along. I
did have a lot of high furniture that they could get on the top of.
Anytime I wanted to introduce a new cat into the group I did it very

for said cat.
Hi, I think it is great that you foster. But you must remember this. Any
time you bring another cat into your home the Pecking Order will

Hi Sheila, I will be happy to mail them to you if you send me your

I learned something the other day I did not know. If a cat is vaccinated
against getting FeLV all its life it will test positive. So it could
very well be that a rescue cat that tests positive is not. This is what
my new vet told me. I feel this all the more reason not to put down
those that test
I live on the edge of a park and last Aug. I rescued a 4 mo. old kitten.
