    The only thing I can suggest is to try to let your boyfriend spend some time alone with the cat. And let the boyfriend give the kitty lots of treats while they have some bonding time. That is if the boyfriend is willing to do that

    There are plenty of places to shop for pet supplies on the internet. Granted you have to pay postage, but if you keep up with them all, they do have free shipping sometimes.

    That is too bad about your cat. It is so sad to lose our good friends. I am glad you have someone new in your life but you will always remember Ferby.

    I have a cat also with long hair and I didn’t believe this but the vet showed me how to comb the hair to get the knots out. You just get a fairly strong comb and as gently as possible just comb the cat and pull the knots out. Sounds like it would be painful but this particular cat let me do it. I am sure there probably put something on there to soften it up but I don’t know what it is.

    Wow, that is great information. Going to print it up and follow it exactly. Thanks for that.

    Actually, I have to agree with you. A friend of mine, goes to the local Pet Smart here and looks in the dumpster behind the store and it is always full of stuff that could be used by the shelters and rescue organizations. It is too bad they don’t give it to the local shelters etc. . She does get a lot of good stuff.

    I have four kittens that I have had since they were 4 weeks old and they all have totally different personalities. I think the one that is so nervous will eventually come around and be more loving. Maybe try to give it a little extra love. I had one that was very shy, and every morning, I give it the remains of my milk from my cereal and now he is my best friend. Just takes a little something special that you could do, to make it like you better. Hope this helps.

    Do you see the places where the cat urinates when she doesn’t do it in the litter box??? If you do, maybe really clean it up and put something on it so it won’t smell like urine.
    Hope you can figure something out. Good luck.

    It sounds to me like he might have Anhidrosis. It is a disease that can come up suddenly. You need to watch our horse and when this happens, hose him off for at least fifteen minutes. And try to figure out someway to keep him out of the sun and the heat. I had a pony with it and I found that feeding her a supplement for her hooves really helped her. Good luck.

    Can you leave the door to the outside open while you sit right outside the door, and see if the dog will come out for some treats??? Or is there anyway you can carry the dog outside??? I would try sitting right outside the door and if it doesn’t work at first, just keep trying with lots and lots of patience.
