Thankyou chris and cheryl I now have another foster cat who is a young cat who potentially was going to be put to sleep as owner allergic to him and couldn't find a new home for him The thought of a young healthy cat being euthanased for such a reason is just not right or ethical to me

I hear this one about 20 times a day.. and to each I give the following advice.
Try Petal Cleanse by Bio Life. In tests on 100 people who claimed to have cat allergies, 88% were cured, the other 12% were found to have Dust Mite Allergies.
And it does work, my son was allergic to everything bar rabbits, so I tried Petal Cleanse, and it worked. He is now married with two children of his own, and a cat....lol
The last two days have been full of calls of In order of favourites.
Death of an Aunt or Grannie Emmigrating Allergies
If all were correct, then the North East is going to be empty by Monday due to death and those left leaving or sneezing..
Re allergies, you can always tell the genuice ones, they are willing to give the Petal Cleanse a try as they really dont want to part with their pets.

I forgot to add...
I dont personally know a Vet who would PTS a young cat for that reason, or infact any reason where the animal is healthy. Im not saying they dont exist, I just dont know of any..
Most around here ring me.......lol

a friend of mine took on 2 rabbits that were in a right state, kept in a cage too small, both rabbits were dirty and urine stained. her husband built a new large cage for the "girls" My friend then found out she was allergic to the rabbits. rehoming was not an option for her, if it came to it she'd get husband to do the cleaning nd kids are old enough to handle the rabbits properly. I told her to try petal cleanse and although she still reacts a bit it's much less than it used to be. oh yeah and the 2 "girl" babies made little rabbits, so she found out 1 was a boy . turns out rabbits will do the "deed" straight after birth so it ended up 2 litters. Daddy has now had his fun stopped by the vet as it was easier to have him snipped while mummy was still expecting. back to the point though petal cleanse did help my friend. she's fine with her dog. it's cats and rabbits for her that cause a reaction. people should be more honest though about reasons why they dont want their pets. all too often they just get bored, the "old" pet goes and another takes it's place. When i thought we may need to rehome Martha i was so upset. it's going well though, not 100% perfect but she's happier now, the other 2 cats seem nicer to her and if one does have a little go at her she will not cower from them now. thankfully we don't get any real cat fights, Martha is spending more time with the family even if the other 2 are in the room and they have even managed to share a sofa without even a dirty look.

a delicate subject perhaps but has anyone got any dietary advice for me. I have a young female foster cat who is very well in herself but has the most (how can I put it )offensive smelly faeces. She does not have diarrhoea or frequency but I need a gas mask and I am usually pretty immune to litter trays but she is an exception! any advice welcome. At present on a mix of wet and dry food but seems to prefer dry I have only had her 3 weeks and she was fed on kitekat in past home
