I think I am noticing Tippy ( 8ish year old female) is not happy if her litter box is TOO clean. Has anyone heard of this? Could it confuse her because we keep...
Hi Leslie, I can't tell you definitively yes or no, but I remember that when my cat was showing litterbox avoidance problems that we could not pin down to...

... I'm just going to send this out to a lot of the groups I'm in. Sorry if you get it a bunch of times since we are in the same groups. :) But not everyone is...
hi, my friend just adopted out a former feral cat named blossom - a beautiful, very sweet, but still pretty shy cat. i believe she's about 2 years old, and...
Hi, Poor little Blossom and her new family, I'm sure that everyone is upset. I think that cats can be very stoic, but they certainly can experience stress....
Hello to all, A few years ago I decided that I wanted to open a no-kill shelter for cats as I had begun to "collect" some stray kitties in addition to my own...
Can I come? I think you're only missing reading materials. <G> ... We had to do this for awhile because we had cats with felien leukemia and I wouldn't put...
Cathy, I am new here to this list but wanted to offer my experience with what you are speaking about. I volunteered for a no-kill cat shelter for a couple of ...
Hi Cathy, It sounds as though you are considering what we call "sanctuary care." And I agree with the vet you consulted, it sounds like a reasonable idea....
Hi All, ... Oh, is that to help with the bathing? Cathy, I am not sure you should need to bathe cats very often. If you're having to bathe, then in most...
Hi All, The home page description for this group mentions that a Dalton . . . organization supports feral cat rescuers. Is there anyone still on the list who...
Thanks to those who answered my post about converting my garage to a kitty play room. You all gave me some good pointers, and hope to respond personally to...
I have to disagree on that. If cats were not declawed they would have a lot less homes to be in. Well, worth the sacrifice. We do lots of elective surgeries...
Hi Leslie, and All, ... It's debatable whether cats FIND more homes where they must submit to surgical amputation of all their claws, or LOSE more homes due to...

I took over the care and feeding of a stray that my brother found. However (and before I knew any better) I had her spayed (good choice) and declawed (bad...
Hi, I just discovered the group and have been pouring over the posts about integrating two cats (we're currently having major problems in this area). I hope to...
Maybe you've tried this, but if your cat eats dry food, you could put some out for her before you go to bed so that she can munch on it when she gets hungry....
Hi -- We had a similar problem with our cat. He would jump on our heads, walk around on us, etc. at about 4 a.m. We put up with this for about 2 nights and...
Thanks, Suzy. Dry food isn't an option, since she's overweight and will eat anything in sight. But I really like this idea of a timer-set bowl. I have not ...
This is definitely a reasonable solution. It's a bit more tricky here, though, because our bedroom is a second-story, open floor plan. There is no doorway or...
Kat, Here's some I found on Drs. Foster and Smith. The Cat Mate Auto Feeder looks like it would do the trick, but there are other you can look at on the page. ...
I've owned cats all my life, and for the first time I only have one. The others were taken by my children as they moved out on their own. The cat I have left...

I am new to the group and cat ownership. I found a feral cat sat. about 4-5mos old. She is a tortie, very dark one I mean the colors. Her first vet visit is...
