To help Allison - I strongly suggest you look into using this product in whatever form is suitable . it is NOT a "drug" .. it is released into the air from a diffuser, or a spray, or on a collar ...and you can read about it below - Quite a lot of D O L folks have used it :) CLICK HERE to go to the website :)

Good plan . :)

Glad she's speyed ,and home ..now for some R&R while she heals :)

yes - that was my first thought....

:) the grand old Lady ...

We were so lucky to have him . To just turn up here- late at night ,100 km from the nearest civilisation !! WE asked houseboat operators/neighbours/vets - no one had any clues - and from that first hour , he was totally accepting and relaxed . He had been desexed, was always perfect indoors , and was clean & shiny - he had come from somewhere kind ...... such an amazing, tolerant and laid back presence will be missed ......

He's buried next to Mr W ..and several others ....I have not been without a house cat companion since around 1980 !! - already it feels so empty. Guess one will find me when they're ready :)

:) lucky girls you have . I do suggest though, that you get some support from a professional - and there are some good folks in melbourne & surrounds who are also D O L members . perhaps contact them - they will perhaps help Alison with her anxieties /worries :) CLICK HERE CLICK HERE CLICK HERE

thank you folks..... he was such a solid and trouble free boy - It seemed he would be around forever .....

puppies are 9 weeks old - and she is in season? That seems odd to me - but , being speyed will certainly put a stop to those hormones.

Today is Dougal's last day - Dougie, about 10 yrs ago, and as an adult , you literally turned up on our doorstep - and slotted in perfectly . You helped raise lots of puppies , (and a piglet ) were a good doorstop , and were the most stoic and bomb-proof cat I have ever known .Even when you lost a section of skin from doing something you shouldn't have - I was able to trim the loose skin around the wound with scissors , and dress it ,while you were scoffing food. . This past week has been so sad, watching you slowly stop enjoying food , and watching your belly fill with fluid , even tho you're not drinking much at all ... rest well , old boy.

What a terrific update

thanks for the update - best of luck .

as long as he IS with you for as many hours of the day that you can fit it in - keeping him in a pen is a good way to know he is safe , your garden is safe , and you retain sanity , IMO. Rotate his toys , so he has 'new' things often - maybe buy him a treat dispenser ..or large ball from Aussiedog toys ..and consider a clam shell 'sand pit' ;) that way, you can bury things in it - he can dig and play in the sand :). remember to train him to be calm and settled indoors with you , and keep up the walks etc.

Hopefully the man learned a good lesson !
