designer boxesIf you’re like me you have to make sure that your cat’s kitty litter box is tucked away in an appropriate area. One of mine is in the bathroom next to the toilet and the other in the laundry room crammed  in a corner next to the dryer. Out of sight, out of mind. Today we have lots of different choices when it comes to litter boxes. Some of the litter boxes of today and fancy and decorative. Some can even be used as night stands. No need to tuck them out of sight, they can be a part of your room decor. Most boxes are enclosed so that there is no mess. They are a bit more expensive but well worth the investment. We have designer pet collars, designer pet clothes and now designer kitty litter boxes!

Kitten Vaccination Guide

Thursday, June 9, 2016
posted by Jim Murphy

cutest kittenAs soon as you bring home your kitten, you must get him vaccinated.This is also true if you find a kitten in your neighborhood that may have been abandoned. So before you worry about buying cat toys, cat treats and other goodies for your cat, take him to the vet. Your kitten should receive his first set of shots when he is between eight and ten weeks old. If your kitten has received some of their shots from another breeder, it is important that you get your veterinarians recommendation on how to proceed with his vaccinations.

Here is a guide to what the vaccinations are for.

Feline Leukemia – This is a viral disease that attacks the immune system and leaves it defenseless in fighting off infection. It is spread by saliva. Symptoms include recurring illness, weight loss, trouble breathing and a yellow color around the eyes and mouth.

Feline Pneumonitis (Chlamydia) – This is a bacterial disease that is highly contagious and causes upper respiratory infections. Symptoms includes watery eyes, sneezing and coughing.

Feline Calcivirus – This disease attacks the lungs are lower respiratory trac. This causes most of the respiratory infections in cats. It is highly contagious and is spread by sneezing. It is often complicated by other infections.

Feline Rhinotracheitis (FVR) This disease attacks the upper respiratory trac and is highly contagious to cats of all ages. Symptoms include sneezing, inflammation of the eye and fever.

Feline Panleukopenia (Feline Distemper – This in my opinion is the worst of all diseases. It attacks fast and fierce. Once your cat has symptoms, you do not have much time left to save him. It is the most widespread and contagious cat disease. It can be transmitted through blood, urine, feces and mucus. Symptoms include fever, diarrhea, vomiting and loss of appetite.

Get you kitten vaccinated right away and report any symptoms to your vet. Pet medication may be appropriate in some cases.
