Nice cat. We need to do the same since our cat bought the farm a few months ago.

Last night Megan and I found what we believe to be a stray/abandoned cat. We took it in and its now in her house. Shes going to get it checked for a chip, put up found flyers, and the usual "found a cat" stuff.

if no one claims it shes going to keep it.

its a calico, black with orange and yellow. We've temporarily named it "Valentine"

What's the deal with cleaning the tear ducts? We've had lots of cats but they were all short-haired.

Lousy excuse. I'm "highly allergic" (per testing by two allergists), but Darling Wife came with 7 of the little blighters. It'd take a hell of a lot more than sniffles and itchy eyes and bumps on me skin to walk away from her!

A year into allergy shots, twice daily allergy pills, and it's manageable (grasses are worse than cats). Which is a good thing, since there's now 10 of 'em hanging around here.

So do mine. It just doesn't happen often enough though.

Hey Mistress make sure you keep on top of the fur on those cats ( i know this was already mentioned). Brush them multiple times a day because they get really bad hairballs which can lead to stomach problems (our old Himalayan perished because of that)
