Thank you. Your words are a kindness.

thank you for your kind words.

I have not posted in quite a long time, although I start every morning looking at the creatures honored with pictures and write-ups.

I guess I just need/want to post the changes that have come to...

I have not posted in a while... but those that remember me will know I have always had multicat households and my guys have usually been long-lived. It is so hard when they get so ill that you can't...

thank you all for your kind thoughts

Yellow Boy came to my yard in the company of Calico and Grey Boy... two strays that came for food but did not want to be tamed. Calico eventually bonded with the family across the street and was hit...

I am so sorry that things are piling up on you. The strays do seem to keep coming even though the money to do the ideal doesn't. You have given him food and kindness. That is a blessing. If it...

If Lily is about 3 or 4 now, in a feral cat community (if she survived) she would be establishing her own space, probably still connected to her mom, but already an experienced "queen" of her own...

She knows that you gave her food and safety... Back when I was a kid (I'm almost 50 now). My mom shut my cat Sooty in the basement with a wonderful nestbox with her litter of kittens, food and a...

I hardly ever post unless I have knowledge that someone can use to help an animal. Life is strange. If I wrote down the things that have really filled my life, no one would believe them all, but...

I don't think you are crazy. My old cat Bunny watched out for his fellow cats much the same way... and me. When I was sad or sick he would "do whatever it took". Love your Toby.... Bunny has been...

I am sorry for your loss... I have loved all of my cats over the years, but there are some that are special heart-friends. It sounds like Mystic is one of those... All love is precious, but the...

You and your vet are probably correct in thinking this is territorial... and as others have said, females will martk territory too. Things might be more intense right now because of the season...

I've had kittens and cats recover from states that I thought were impossible and some fade over what seemed like nothing.... It is so hard to tell. In the end I think we humans do our best and let...

It depends on the kind of trap...Please call your vet and read them exactly what the trap is made of. A friend of mine was told that contact with a sticky trap contributed to the death of her Great...

I've always thought cats in general are smarter than people in general.... just smart in different ways! If cats and dogs are learning from people (I hope they AREN'T learning some things!) , maybe...

Good luck with all of this. I have come so close to losing my house and so losing a place for my "guys" that I can barely allow myself to think about it. For me, help came when I least expected it....

A warm wash cloth is best. Babywipes have scent and may have alcohol (both of which are not the best for tiny ones.) Using a warm damp wash cloth and then a dry wash cloth to rub them dty is the...

I'm glad you are taking him in to the vet.... better safe than sorry. It might be a bored call, but with the drooling and the head rubbing I would be worried about a tooth problem (they don't always...

In my cat communities there is usually a caretaker that seems to make sure everybody is ok. They are hero-cats....
