Hello, thank you for your site. I am typing on my cell and can hardly see this, so forgive any typos. My name is Rebecca, and I am fostering 4 babies and a feral Mom. I have no idea why, but the littlest white angel of the bunch all of a sudden had no use of her hind legs. I took her to the vet imm...

Hi! Bless you for wanting to open your home and your heart to a CH kitty. Have you joined the CH kitty yahoo group and the Canadian CH kitty yahoo groups and posted there? There are often CH kitties posted there looking for homes. I know you are in Canada, but with the proper paperwork - health cert...

Kittymom: Just went looked at Stewie's pics and he is toooo cute for words! The best way of course to get Stewie from Oregon to AZ is with someone flying in the plane with him. Do NOT even consider cargo. I'd check with my air port and the AZ airport to see what flights go between the two airports. ...

Thank you Christine and Critters for posting about Nubbins and for your interest in offering him a home, Poo. Nubbins was adopted last week!!! The shelter where Nubbins was tries very hard to place special needs cats, so please do check their website for other special needs cats and kittens who are ...

Melia: Take a deep breath.......... All of us the first time we have been blessed to have been chosen to be the parent of a special needs cat or dog are overwhelmed at first. Things are so much different than caring for a regular cat or dog. Some can't use regular litter boxes or go outdoors, some n...

Hi! This is mumpkees - mother over the years to many many CH furkids and other mobility challenged furkids. You've got a couple of things going on here. You have a little one who has mobility issues - balance being the first one. He also is only 12 weeks old. Normal kittens don't gain total control ...

I am so happy to hear that Stewie has a wonderful forever home!!! I personally don't like to use antibiotics unless necessary. If he doesn't have an infection, I'd hold off. You are expressing him. The important thing is to keep his bottom soap and water clean so that bacteria is kept to a minimum. ...

Hi! Bless you for opening your home and your heart to these little ones! It is good to hear that she in good spirits and active. Is she still with her litter mate? Is her litter mate normal? Can you give us more description of her abilities / disabilities? What she can and/or cannot do - can she sit...

I am so very sorry that Bernard's family in the twighlight of his life decided that they no longer wanted him - he was a very handsome cat. I am sorry that even the care and love of Bendy's family was not enough for Bernard to help him trust and love again and that the loss of his first family was s...

Debbie: He is absolutely adorable - so precious. The look of happiness and love on his face is priceless. Thank you for sharing your baby with us. /mari

Pat - hi this is /mari (mumpkees) of course we remember you. I have been working w/ MC (twelvehousecats) (marychristine) on this little meezer baby. I think it was MC who emailed you. I have been in contact with the foster mom and right now she is seriously considering adopting the adorable little g...

What a truly special thing to do - what a lesson in understanding how humans are not the only ones to grieve the loss of a cherished friend. Smithers will not replace Murphy's long time friend, but he has helped to soften the pain of loneliness and given Murphy someone to share his days with. What a...

Kathy: My heart goes out to you. No matter how many years we have with our furkids, it is never enough time. It is so hard when they slow down or become ill and we know their time is drawing near. I know that you are spending the weekend knowing what you must do on Monday. But it is good that Pilea ...

Sandy: Did I see that you had a CH kitty too? Are you on the yahoo CH kitty group? The thinness and the confusion and the continual hollering concern me. These are all classic symptoms of a thyroid condition that is common place in a cat half her age. Thyroid failure can affect many organs of the bo...

Sierra sounds like a beautiful dog. One of our angels who lived to be 14 yr old as an epileptic was a golden retriver/irish setter mix. She was very healthy with no problems at all. She just laid down one day and left us. Auggie was about 16 yrs old and was a lab mix. He started having trouble with ...
