Is there any sort of movement to classify de-clawing as some sort
of animal cruelty or mutilation?
Seems like vets shouldn't be doing it...

Cruising through some web sites I found this very cute video.  Thought

Remember the story link I posted about the cat stuck up in a 75 foot
tree?  Well, this reminds me of the time our cat was stuck up in a
coconut tree.  Our family came in from our remote village into town
and brought "Patches" our calico cat.  But at the housing where we

Holly brought her little red mouse into the computer room a few minutes ago,
and she has been attacking it ever since--tosses it in the air, catches it,
rolls over with it, scrambles all around the room.  I have just been sitting
here, enjoying the fun.  She brings that mouse to ...

I finally got some shots of "our" feral Lil Girl up to Webshots. BTW,
we do think our late Bruver was the father to Lil Girl's litter, as he
was the only male around at the time. And she took special pleasure
running him off every time he'd come for milk.

Hi Phil,
I have been reading more about Metacam and the more I read, the more

Some months ago I posted here about my 14 year old not-fixed Feral Coon
cat who came down with pyometria, and was saved by VERG on Christmas day
here in Brooklyn. They were wonderful, and did right by Tania.
She survived and healed very well from her operation. Her recovery was

Anyone know of any?

I need to give my cat Pepcid twice a day.  I've been fairly successful
but I wondered if there was an easier way.  Right now I hold him in my
arms, face up and put it on the back of his tongue.  Sometimes he

I have a cat and his name is Hendrix. He is about 10 months old. We
recently left him with our neighbors and upon our return we discovered
he has a strange discharge coming from his nose which is like a brown
