re”They don’t do that if you have them neutered before they reach sexual maturity.”

Can’t afford the $500.00!!!!

[NoCmpromiz]

Yes!!

I don't have shelter cats. They just show up.

I guess they know a sucker when they see one.

That is how my family has always gotten its cats. They choose us, we don’t choose them.

Some good ideas here, but I disagree with the last suggestion to use flea products on your cat. I learned years ago that a daily combing with a flea- or fine-tooth comb keeps fleas away. Plus, my kitties LOVE being combed, Andy demands it several times a day.

My first kittie had a ton of fleas…a bath fixed him right up. Followed by daily combing. Not saying he loved the bath, but it had no side effects.

Yes, you is.

You did not read any of my other posts in the thread, did you?

[WayneS]

Our cats also like to be combed every day. And as an added benefit, they NEVER have hair balls.

I plead guilty. I didn’t read your posts. I’m at home recovering from surgery and the vicodins musta kicked in. (they’re like 12 year old scotch in a pill)

[Veto!]

No hair balls here either:)

[WayneS]

And they’re even better with a 12 year old scotch chaser...

;-)

[Celtic Conservative]

Yea, verily. =^)

Where there's a will....there's a JRT!

[Slings and Arrows]

Buford’s not technically a JRT, but we may have to make him an honorary one.

Buford looks like a coon hound. Sweet face tho. ;)
