I pretty much accept the destruction, I like my living furry things more than my inanimate ones generally speaking. |

What a horrible piece of advice. If I had a mother who was 300 lbs and I couldn't wipe her bum for her. I would find a way, I wouldn't send her to the old age home because they are better able to care for her. Cats are family too. |

It's people like you who make the vets rich. Do some research, learn, learn, learn... |

My daughter is a pet groomer and she uses a pair of leather welders gloves when working with cats. These gloves have gauntlets to prevent cats from scratching your wrists. |

I figure these cats are real smart and had their owners trained very well. I have owned many cats and never had that problem. Why bother doing it yourself if someone else will do it for you. |

What a wonderful piece of advice. I will check with Home Depot and see if they have those. I will have them ready for next time and perhaps use them when grooming them. Thank you. |

If I am unable to provide adequate care I hope I would have enough good sense to find someone who can. Some of these rescue organisations do remarkable work and the people involved care very deeply. Fortunately I've had cats all my life and am well able to care for them, although there have been times in my life when I couldn't buy much in the way of people food I made sure the cats had a good diet. |

Edited to say: This post follows Fuzzy and that is who I am replying to. NOT Darcie. I am able to provide adequate care, I don't know what makes you think I can't, just because I made a thread about a cat needing her bum wiped. I am sure I am not the first person who had to struggle a bit to get some poop off. laugh123 laugh123 My cats (and all my pets before them, both dogs and cats) live the good life. They want for nothing. They love it with me. I can handle animals better than some rescue units. I have spent the last 3 years being foster mom for the SPCA and I have delivered a litter. Don't underestimate my intelligence Fussy. |

We don't all have to think alike Mouse. I am just telling you how I feel and I figure that is OK to do. Lucky we are not all alike or it would be a very boring world. I did not say you were not looking after your cat or anyone else was not I have no idea. I was saying that IF I COULD NOT I would not get one. Was not referring to anyone else. |

Now I will reply to you Darcie. Sorry I didn't mean to make you feel left out. First, are you addressing me in this post? If so, you could be right, I never thought much about that as I know they lived in cages and were used only for breeding for many many years. Yes, I agree, why bother doing it yourself if someone else will do it for me. |

I'm not underestimating your intelligence Mouse, but I may be overestimating the care with which you read my posts. Did I say anywhere that you are unable to care for an animal? |

I believe this is what you are requesting. By the way I do believe organization is spelled with a Z, not an S. wub |
