We're taking of two feral kitties and haven't thought about them infecting our other cats. What is FIP and how is it transmitted? It's obviously not like HIV which can only be transmitted through body fluids, so why to they have such similar names? It is confusing. The kittens are about 8 wks. old....

Hello, We have a 5 year old spayed female who has a history rhinitus which is caused by a cyst in her sinus. We cannot afford the price of an endoscophy $5000.00 to have the cyst removed. A couple of times a year she gets a sinus infection which is treated with antibiotics and she recovers. ...

About three weeks ago this nice little tom started visiting us. We have two indoor cats and they were pretty agitated. He kept coming around, and I took a good look at him. He was un-neutered, looked to be a year or two old, was bedraggled and riddled with ear mites. Other than that he was...

How does one go about domesticating ferile kittens? The dh brought home 6 of them. They are approx. 8 - 12 wks. old. and want no parts of being picked up - hissing, biting and scratching ensues when you try.

My wife and I went with great trepidation down to the rec center where the neighborhood kid had seen the "missing cat" poster. It wasn't the stray we've adopted. Much ado about nothing. Well, maybe not nothing. It got me worked up again about how careless some folks are with their pets. We...

We have a Tonkinese female, about 6 years old, that we absolutely must get out of the house. We want her to have a good home, but the Tonkinese rescue group has not been responsive, despite repeated efforts for their help. The cat must go. She urinates huge amounts of urine periodically, so she...

Just trying to cover all bases here. I've also sent email to NorCal Sled dog rescue and Heart Bandits. But I'm not going to be able to follow-up on the dog myself so .... I have a friend who found a stray American Eskimo. She's been contacting vets and groomers and shelters with no luck on...

Well I must first admit I've already been feeding it all week. It appeared very bony when I first started, but looks more like a normal kitten now. My concern is that this may be a female and that she will be bringing me loads more kittens to feed if she is not fixed. (I am way allergic to...

Doing a web search I come up with everything from they can be tested at any time to it's not accurate till 6 mos. At what age do you usually test kittens? There are about 5 doctors at the veterinary practice I take my cats to. The vet I usually deal with told me (last fall) he couldn't test...

I kicked out mother cat because the dumb bitch keeps trying to kill her kittens. (She killed 2 litters already so far.) So she's outside begging and purring and clawing (a GLASS window, mind you) to get back in just so she can sit on the little ****ers and smother them to death! Cats SUCK. And...

I'm taking a litter of three 6 week old kittens in for a leukemia test in the morning, they are not a healthy litter, I've had them since they were 3 weeks old. Please pray they are okay, and if not, that I can handle it. Thanks so much, Aimee
