Good article on sunburn for animals. My kitties are all indoor kitties, however, they LOVE to lay in the sun coming in the windows.

Shame on the Canadian Officials in this town. I am sure they DON'T have to say what happened to these cats. Everyone probably has a pretty good idea. Get with it Officials. Spay/neuter release programs is the best way to go. Also, you idiots that are dropping off your childs pet cat, ought to be fined and prosecuted! Or drop them off miles from nowhere and let them make their own way home with no water or food. Idiots!

Thank you for the new information on the virus that is going around. I take my kitties to the vets for a yearly checkup always and keep their shots up, especially for this. Hopefully, this will help prevent them from catching this. I hope they keep us informed on this subject further. Thanks.
