(Do you have your own program for cropping or do you use the one suggested in the computer help thread? Irfanview, I think.)

And Vee, you know I made the same offer to you on the family picture that was too, too big if you wanted. Just wasn't sure if you'd checked your email or not.

That's right, Nancy, never disturb the sleeping kitty! What I have gone through to allow a sleeping cat lie.

Well you know The Buddha cut his robes to allow the sleeping cat to remain sleeping :-)

I've been known to post some very cryptic things on this board because MsCritter is on my lap and I can only reach the mouse.. I hate to disturb her.

Free To Good Home:

We live way out in the middle of nowhere, and we feed a few stray kitties. We actually only own one kitty, but I can't let the other go hungry. DH came home the other night and a little orange kitten, maybe 12 weeks old, was eating on the porch. Very cute, marbled, not tabby. DH scooped him up and brought him in the house. He was so skinny and scared, but he is warming up to us. He needs a good home, a good family to take care of him. He is quite plump now. He still hides from us, and we are keeping him inside. I don't want to let him out for fear a coyote would get him. He's so little. Anyone in my area want him? N. Cal?

Has anyone here used Feliway for anxious cats? We are suffering from misplaced aggression! I have a kitty who is attacking her sister because we got kittens :-(

LOL Missy. My recommendation ain't enuf? <wink>

Go to www.catfaeries.com and call 'em up. They'll give you more info. I trust Gail, and trust anything she says. It's why I usually recommend Feliway when I hear of kitties acting on less than their best behavior. Fortunately, mine ALWAYS behave! (NOT!)

Sorry I trust your word - but my money is tight. I hate the thought of buying it and having it do nil :-( I talked to the vet today and anxiety meds seem like a pricey item that I'd use as a last resort! Thanks again and I'll give them a call.

Missy, I had a similar problem a few months back with my two cats -- a neighbor had let his male cat into the hallway, and long story short, he introduced himself to my two female, unspayed girls. Both my cats were hissing, growling, completely off the wall behaviour. Our vet suggested (aside from having them fixed, of course) to try a product called Rescue Remedy. It is an all natural, herbal serum that was originally meant to calm human anxiety but is now commonly used on cats, dogs, horses, etc. as well.

The product comes with either a spray or a dropper, depending on how you want to administer it. You can put drops into their food or water dish, try a drop straight on the tongue, but the easiest way we found was to use the spray and get the pad of the paw. It absorbs through and calms them down quickly. I didn't notice any sedation in the cats, just a lack of aggression. The website I linked to gives the option to buy online, but I picked ours up at the local herbalist/vitamin store for under $15.

Of course, sometimes the only remedy to introducing new kitties is time and patience. They'll come around.

Miss Critter will be going to the vet tomorrow, so it will not be what she considers a "good day".

She's due for an annual shot and I'm sure they will talk about blood draws and such, but mostly, she's been licking alot and gradually developing scabby skin under her fur.. so we have to figure out what is happening and STOP it.

Monitor Cleaner

Turn up your speakers a bit.....and don't worry, its not one of those idiotic "something will suddenly leap out at your screen with a loud noise" things (I hate those).

Anyway, this is pretty cute, and you do need to have your sound up a bit.


And....sending good vibes to Miss Critter!

Thanks, Whoami, now I just need to get the outside cleaned. The kitty looks so much like Fioré that I was startled—right down to the dainty paws.

Let us know what's up with Miss Critter, Sea. My kitty got an anti-itch shot once for that and I'd like to know if there's a different remedy.
