I'm feeling guilty, I've had my cat secluded to one room for 4 days now.  Here
are the details:
-diagnosed last week as blind with probable brain tumor
-3 days ago cat had 3 seizures over 12 hour period

Delilah has had this condition for just about 48 hours now.
Vet says unlikely from prednisone, more likely from an unsually stressful week
(at Neurologist Wednesday to find out about blindness and probably brain tumor
and I was extremely upset, then 3 seizures on Thursday, Friday ...

Mary:  Thanks for recognizing my mistake.  My computer was giving me
trouble.  Now I am trying to master a new computer.  Purrs for all kitties
and their concerned slaves.   MLB

I need to get Shaina spayed soon and i was wondering if anyone can
recommend a good vet in Manhattan.  also, i would like to know how
much it is, approximately.  my mom got our cat spayed in Boston and
she said it cost her $100.

Ok, I'll get straight to the point, I won't bore you with a long
winded story.. :)
I'm about (hopefully) to be reunited with my cat after an 18-month
abscence (after owning him for 10 years).

I posted a few weeks back about my absolute contempt for whoever dumped a
real sweet female cat in my neighborhood.
As it turns out, she now has a permanent home with the guy who lives behind
me. She wandered off and wasn't seen for a few days. I thought she had been

Hi, I'm just wondering if there are any alternatives to completely
desexing my kitten called Charla. Mum & Dad have told me that she has
to be desexed no matter what...but are there any other methods?  I've
read arguements for long-term health benefits of spaying, but I'm

Hi, Here in London u.k., people allow their cats out, and of course they

a new kitten.
We have been told by someone that we should 'introduce' the cat to our

Anyone know if there is a need and a procedure to donate cat CRF
supplies such as a case of Ringers, some common meds, etc to a needy
recipient ?  Sadly, they are no longer of use to our friend but we
thought they might help someone else's. Hate to just throw them out.

Ok, so I've decided to shave two of my kitties.
Problem is - they are not declawed (indoor only), never would I do such a
horrid thing to them! They never scratched or hurt anybody, they don't
destroy the house (other then the couch but I allowed them to do that in the

We have a cat who has regular nails at the top of his toes on his front
paws, and then a second set of nails going in the opposing direction on the
bottom of his toes (curling up from the pad). The bottom set is dark brown
and has no discernable point to indicate where they should ...

My full-figured hyperthyroid tuxedo cat has been on Tapazole 10 mgs (.5
every twelve hours) for three weeks now and three days ago began showing
less interest in her food, which she formerly gobbled. This morning she had
to be dragged out from under a table to be pilled, then ...

Hope this NY Times squib amuses somebody. They say cats don't like to
travel, I guess this is extreme feline aversion.
