I buy lots of litter there, ( Yesterday'sMews  Tidy cat clay) except the 
ScoopAway which I get from Costco.
(It's alot cheaper there plus I get the 2% rebates).

I also buy most of my feral foods there, (once again, I do a mix 
w/someCostco dry).
I wait until they have the Friskies cans on sale and stock up (my ferals get 
moist  dry).

I also shop for lots of clients there.

Oh,and the felv+ cats like the Elegant Medleys as well as the little Pro 
Plans moist.

I could not LIVE w/oPetsmart.

Kelly, do you just have Dr. Samon write you a script for the A/D?

How much is it a case @ Petsmart?

 We don't have a Petsmart or Petco within 60 miles or so. I guess I'll have
 to get inventive in this area…

 We do adoptions @ Petsmart, ofcourse.





 And we sign up for additional time during the week when there is space
 available.





 We list on Craigslist, Petfinder,probably some other places too.





 Wemakebig postersw/before  afterphotos detailingtheir plight.





 We have one person who does our screening in the Austin area.





 We are hoping tohave a shelter /group foster home by next spring.





 That really would help.

 Susan—that is wonderful!



 Could you tell me what you do for an adoption event? I'm interested for 
 the
 future when my husband and I hope to run a sanctuary. And, I've got three
 fosters that need homes now, so any advice on advertising and such would 
 be
 greatly appreciated. The web just really doesn't work for advertising 
 around
 here.



 Thanks,

 Today we finally found time to take 6 of our 12 'Houston hoarder cats to
 the clinic for retesting.





 These cats, if you remember, came from a house of 185 neglected cats.





 Many of the cats were felv+.





 I took in 14 to foster, and @ first they were all housed in one large 
 walk
 in size pen.





 We were testing them 3 @ a time, and the very last cat that we tested,
 Lillian, came up felv+.





 Which meant all of the other 13 cats had had a continous exposure to felv
 for about 3 weeks.





 In very close quarters.





 And many of the cats were sick w/ all kinds of problems when we got them, 
 as
 well as malnourishment.





 We had pyrometria, URI, mouth ulcers, toe infections, very stressed out
 geriatrics, megacolon, and one little kitty w/seizures that did not make
 it...  :(


 to name some of the problems.





 Anyway, of the 6 that we tested today, all came

Hi Susan,

Yes, Dr. Samon writes a prescription for A/D.  I am not sure how much
it is by the case, I usually don't buy that much at one time.  I have
this theory that if you go more often and buy fewer cans it doesn't
cost as much..ha!

Just ask Tomlinsons where I buy a bag of food every 2 days.


I buy litter at WalMart or Target.

I really like Target's house brand of clay litter, and it'scheaptoo.

$2.26 for 20lbs.

I use this for my Houston cat fosters, since they have a different set up.

Yes, I know the theory about buying a little bit @ a time,but I just don't 
have the time to shop like that.

Plus I like squirreling away supplies, it'sa security issue w/me.:)
