A group of cat breeders share their list of New Year’s resolutions regarding their cats.
Given that astrology may have a profound effect upon our human world, so it may also influence the lives of our pets. Felines, especially, seem to be “connected” to their astrological signs.
The challenge of a becoming and exceptional breeder starts with developing an eye for a good cat, then embarking on the pursuit of excellence.
Occasionally a cat gives birth to a litter of kittens in which one newborn is significantly smaller than the rest. A tiny kitten has very little reserve and can simply fade away within just a few hours of being born unless it begins to nurse.
When a nursing kitten throws up milk, it may appear that the milk is curdled. The normal acids in the kitten’s stomach causes the milk to begin to curdle, forming a clot.
The appearance of the nasal discharge and the length of time it has been a problem are both important in helping to determine the cause of the nasal problem and in maintaining the cat’s health.
A Himalayan kitten amusingly named “G-nome” suddenly and inexplicably begins losing his hair in handfuls at just three month of age.
When you train your cat to use a scratching post, you need to also teach it NOT to use your furniture as a handy substitute. Furniture should be a no-claw-zone in the feline brain.
When getting started in the cat fancy, the first steps will involve purchasing foundation stock for one`s breeding and showing program. This is the best advice a newcomer to the cat fancy will ever receive concerning how to buy your first show cat.
Learn how to prepare the carrier, choose the best airline, and ensure that your kitty arrives safely when being shipped by air.
