Cat Health

Just wanted to wish the Four Fuzzies and their mom & dad a very Happy & Healthy New Year! ~val

In light of our two unexpected vet trips over the weekend, what is the scariest health moment you've had with your cat or cats?

Has anyone seen Animal Hoarder's on Animal Planet? We don't have cable or dish so all I've seen is clips from the website: http://animal.discovery.com/tv/confessions-animal-hoarding/

I guess when people have 80 cats, I can't feel too crazy for wanting to have 4! The stories can be heart wrenching. I have to shield myself from the over populations of cats in order to not become one of these people!

Reports of precious family animals disappearing and turning up lifeless are flooding in at a rising rate in Boston, Mass. Numerous residents feel that fisher cats are at fault. People are advised to take caution, as the wild weasel-looking fisher cat has been seen in many locations of residential neighborhoods.

Hi to all,
I'm Daniel and I have a 9 year old Tabby cat called Tigger. One of my fellow cat-loving friends sent me this link recently:

I'm not sure if anyone else has had this problem, but as Tigger is a rescue cat, I have a lot of problems trying to get him in a cage/box for our visits to the vet. I ended up trying this product when I was at my wit's end and it's done us the world of good. It's much less of an uphill struggle now and although he still doesn't like the trip, it's far less stressful on both of us.
