We have both diffusers going downstairs, and a litterbox stationed at
his favorite spot. We've been using "Icky-poo-off" (iirc) which is

IMO, this stuff is poison and shouldn't be used at all. While I'm
glad they're taking some action, Hartz should be pulling this

I have two cats and one has gone completely insane.  She hisses a
everything and growls at everyone.  She also will bite if you stop he
from going outside or anything that she wants to do.  When she bite

On our walk tonight, a car roared by our house. Louis crouched and
attempted a lunge, restrained by his harness.
Bad news if he ever gets out solo. Who'd have thought that cats would

Have Fun,

trying to explain this their daughter and that they probably are ...

Firstly a bit of background.

litter mates, died suddenly.  Our vet thinks that the cause of death was
some form of cardiac disease or stroke.  Both cats were best friends and

Hi--
I have a 12/13 year old cat that's always been in perfect health. Not
overweight, neutered, very healthy. Our of nowhere last night, he seems
to have developed a slight weakness in his back legs. He can jump on

Did anyone catch the 20/20 segment this past Friday about SPCA's "absuing"
power?  It was horribly biased, and defended scumbag backyard breeders who
had been busted.  It made me mad, I was yelling at the TV the through the
whole thing.

Greetings all,
1st thanks for all of the kind replies.  I have joined the Yahoo CRF
board and have been cruising the tons of CRF websites - all very
helpful.

I just got a 2 month old female kitten from the shelter.   Shes adapted
very well to the house and my 7 month old female cat.   She is always
squeeking or chirping like a bird or meowing.   Its starting to drive me
