It was my first kitty that couldn't use his back legs. The tray for litter is exactly what I did and it worked great. He got a long as well as ...

Re: RIP my sweet Bendikins

I am soooooo sorry for your loss. I'm reliving losing my Fuzzy Heart Kitty through your words. I know the feeling of "was it my fault, did I miss something, should I have done something else?" We all question ourselves when we grieve. But with prayers, God let me know it was just His Time,...

He had been run over at 6 weeks, but was still alive. After surgeries, he did really well and lived 11 yea...

Re: Ringold, GA Blind Deaf Aussie 10 months old NEPTUNE

Oh, Christine, I'm so glad you posted Neptune here. I thought you might. He's so beautiful, reminds me of my very first rescue, my heart dog Mannie. I know how tough it is to have a deaf and blind animal. My heart cat, Fuzzy, has become almost totally blind, and partially deaf. He's 16 now and has d...
