A few weeks ago, one of the stray cats in my neighborhood disappeared. She returned three days later, with what appeared to be, an Upper Respiratory Infection; her eyes and nose were runny, she was sneezing, and was breathing through her mouth. She was also slightly skinnier.
I placed her in my garage with water, food, and a cat box, hoping she might get better. She would not eat or drink, so I force-fed her baby food and water, with a syringe. After two days of being in my garage, I decided to let her out. Her health had not improved. I thought she might do better with fresh air.
She disappeared, again, for two days. When she returned her nose and eyes were not that runny. She was still breathing through her mouth. She seemed much more energetic. I offered her kibble, warm tuna, and some baby food, but she would not eat.
I did not have any pocket money to spare. I contacted my veterinarian clinic, and asked if I could pay several days later, when I received some money. My clinic told me no; getting her checked out would have to wait.
She hung around my house for two or three days, and then disappeared, again. She has been missing for around three days now. I have scheduled a veterinarian appointment on each of these days, hoping to see her. Unfortunately, I have had to reschedule each one of them because she has not come back.
Do you think that there is a chance that she might return? My friends are telling me that she probably starved to death. I do not want to believe this, though. I actually plan to make this cat an indoor cat when I move, in one year (I need more space before I can let her in).
I feel for you.
I have had similar problems..i honestly think she will come back. Has she ever been gone this long?
I have fed stray cats that were literally half dead...thin...colds..the whole thing. I just had one that disappeared a month ago and i knew he wasn

My dog seems to be an attention hog. How do I correct her growling at the other dog when petting her?
When I pet another dog, my dog comes up and almost pushes the other dog out of the way. Also, if I am playing with her, and the other dog wants to play with her, she will growl/bark. Both dogs are over 10 years old. Help!
i would remove her from the room for a few seconds and repeat until she realizes that every time she growls that she is sent away. i would also add a word like stop and then remove her immediately. it should be easy to correct all you do is what you do and when she does what you don

Bunny Questions...? HELP! Easy 10 points!?
Here are my questions:
1.What treats are good for bunnies? I heard yogurt drops are good treats=) Also what fruits and veggies?
2.Whats the safest, but cheap litter for bunnies? NO CEDAR OR PINE!
3.Whats a good bed for a bunny?
4.How much does it cost to get a male bunny neutered and a female bunny spayed?
I was just wondering=D thanks!
1. Fruits are good treats for bunnies, and yogurt drops are bad for bunnies. All the yogurt drops do is harm rabbits -- this has been affirmed by every house rabbit article or handbook that I

What does bird food taste like?
I recently bought a parrot which was weened onto Zupreem pellets. I heard that the colors and extra sugar is bad. I wonder what they actually taste like. Someone recommended that I switch to Roudybush pellets, will those taste ok to my bird considering it
Should I get my budgie foot toys?
I heard that they are not good for some birds. Should budgies have them, or should they just have like toys that hang from the ceiling of the cage?
