What is to prevent this from happening to your
cat and/or kid?  (Note that kids wear shoes in the Winter,
would they be doing so in the summer?)  

Thought I'd post a new message instead of replying to the old one.  Just
like to thank those of you who have replied to my other messages - loads of
useful advice.  Henry's been admitted to our Vet for the past 24 hours, and
we were told today he has a very nasty viral infection.  ...

Thanks for the replies to my message on 1st Feb (subject: Cat growing
thinner).  I'm now getting quite worried about Henry - he is just not
himself, and I don't know *what* a worming pill can do (that's what the vet
gave him today).  Behaviourly he seems to have changed - he is ...

The vet said my cat seemed fine on a basic exam, but her head jerks
with each breath. The breathing seems a little rapid and shallow but
the cat is not in any distress and isn't panting. Her wait is fine,
but she vomits often after eating.

I have put links to some photographs that you might be
interested in seeing and perhaps bidding on at auction - I
love cats and have two of my own - if anyone would like to

My 11 year old male tabby, "Clucky", who's been diabetic for about a
year and a half, starting having breathing difficulty about three weeks
ago.  His respirations were increased, and he was having coughing fits
several times a day.  Our wonderful country vet, who makes house ...

As we are getting two MC kittens I was wondering about whether it makes
a difference if they are the same sex. We have pretty much decided on
one male of the horde.
If anyone has an interesting story about their Maine Coons and how they

i have a kitten, probably about 5 or 6 months old (she was a stray, so i'm
not sure of the age exactly).  she's active (uhhh, i mean REALLY active most
of the time).  i haven't taken her to a vet yet because we just scooped her
up under two months ago (and we have no car until a ...

I put up some new pics of my Furbabies taken this January.
I re-did some of my pages but do not expect anything fancy.  Still learning.  Been working
on it most of the evening and the babies are getting kind of rowdy here wanting
attention!!  :-)

I have a kitty who goes absolutely spastic over some pom-poms I picked up at a
cat show several years ago.  They are her favorite toy and have been loved to
death and I am looking for replacement ones.  What I am looking for are regular
craft type pom-poms with bits of mylar in them ...

Every day it doesn't rain, I take my ferret for a walk, either with a leash
in the city or without a leash in the forest.  As I mentioned in a previous
post, I'm thinking of getting a cat too, and was wondering about the
feasibility of it joining us for the walks.

Can anyone tell me, why my master Wilson, will only drink
his water out of an old blue plastic beaker, and this while
sitting in the bathtub. There are bowls placed in strategic
places for him, kitchen, lounge, veranda, and my bedroom

One of our cats has developed a significant number of bumps on his back and
around his head. He has a lot of fur so you can't see them but when you
pet/groom him you really notice them.
We've taken him to the Vet and he recommended seeing a specialist which

hello.  i'm a first-time poster to this group.  my name is julia, and i own
a black and white kitten (or....well.....my black and white kitten owns me).
she was a stray who was probably put out by someone because they had too
many cats (that happens a lot around where i live).  she ...
