I had to take Twirl to the vet today. Oliver lit into her and tore open her ear. She now has 6 brand new stitches in her ear. I asked a Cat Psych what she thought was going on with my group treating Twirl so aggressively? Her answer made a lot of sense. With […]
They can turn a gray sky blue, a frown into a smile. Kittens get into the funniest predicaments and then become highly insulted when you dare to help them out! Tyler got into her track ball. I am not sure how she did it, just that she did. She didn’t seem to want to get […]
It has been months since Guinevere and Cleo were both diagnosed with Renal Medullary Solute Washout thanks to the pet food recall fall-out. For days, I stayed up keeping vigil, supplying supportive fluids and prayers when needed. I almost lost Cleo then he rebounded, then Guinevere took a nose dive for awhile but she recovered. […]

I stayed up all night keeping a close eye on the kittens. Apparently, because the wormer was Strongid, overdosing isn’t a large problem as it would be with over-the-counter wormers or Drontal.

They are drinking more water than I have ever seen kittens drink, but they are peeing and pooping and passing large amounts of roundworms. […]
My heart broke today. I took in this 8 month old tuxedo kitty long-hair. She has been so traumatized, that any time I come near her, she pees all over herself. She has a raspy meow that sounds worse than fingernails on a blackboard. She has taken refuge in the enclosure, on one of the […]
Living in a multi-cat home, the alpha cats have the clear advantage over the rest of the clowder. They eat first, push the more submissive away from the food bowl, become a bit of a bully toward the pariah cats (the shyer cats of the bunch that generally get picked on daily). One of our […]
Here is Stormy- excuse the hand in the photo
Took the dogs into the woods tonight. Lei met up with a skunk, although, thankfully, she didn’t get fully sprayed. I still have some Skunk-Off here and so she got her face washed when we got home. We also saw our buddy Mr. Owl. I am glad he is still a frequent host to our […]
