GayzeStarr Would you be able to talk to your fellow students, and perhaps even start a college club, to collect donations to help the cats? You might start your own trap and release program, and talk to your local veterinarians. See if they would be willing to spay...

neoplanet9 @neoplanet9 (187) • Malaysia 7 May 09

GayzeStarr I've always had cats and dogs together. I started doing clicker training with my dogs about ten years ago, and they loved it. What I didn't expect, though, was that my cats would love it, too! My cat, Pree, would hear me get out the clicker and come...

GayzeStarr My absolute best advice for new cat owners is to pick up a copy of Anitra Frazier's book, The New Natural Cat. It's a fantastic resource, with information on training, health and nutrition that will keep your kitty content and with you for many years. A pet...

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 7 May 09

My cats have a food bowl and snack all day from the food that is left out. They only eat cat food, with the exception of my oldest cat who enjoys milk and dairy based products. I'm worried that they are not eating...

Do your cats want to go outside?

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 7 May 09

My Orange Cat (kitten) would love to go outside. He was born outdoors. Whenever I open the front door he is always there first to smell the outside. Once he stepped outside and I had to bring him back in. He's a male, so...

GayzeStarr I believe Vislas are a Hungarian breed, so you may look into that as an angle. If you say he was rescued from death, you may also want to put Lazarus on your list of names. They are a beautiful breed, and I do hope your dog-hero defeats his challenges. I...
