Cat Stevens

Though don’t get me wrong just like you, I also like my solitude where I can relax and take a nap or even just look out the window. I’m still a fairly young cat, and still like to run around and play with toys such as balls, strings, toys covered in cat nip from time to time. I came into the shelter as a stray, so I’m not sure if I was an indoor cat in my past, but I am litter box trained,…

Pure-bred Sprague Dawley rats (brown laboratory rats) are to be used in this experiment. These rats are preferred due to known calmness and ease of handling. To reduce variability, rats of the same weight, age, and gender will be chosen. Thirty-seven ADHD rats and thirty-seven non-ADHD rats will be chosen. This provides a sample size large enough to produce statistically significant values. Because there is no physical biological marker for rats with ADHD, behavioral symptoms must be…

The house itself appeared as if it was ready to fall down. The roof had plastic covering parts of it, and was flapping in the breeze. There was furniture on the porch, and as we got closer I noticed several cats running to get away from us. There was a terrible smell of urine and feces coming from the open door. Barb knocked and an obese man answered the door. He had no shirt on, and his jean shorts were stained. He told us to meet him in the backyard. We made our way around the several broken…

It is a combination of a Burmese, Abyssinian and the Domestic Short Hair. And it’s said to have inherited the laid back nature & loving personality, loved about Burmese; the intelligence and ticked coat of the Abyssinian and the genetic hardiness of the Domestic Shorthair. The Australian Mist cat breed comes in both Spotted and Marbled, with the latter markings…

Three cats sat on the edge of the river just upstream of the waterfall. They watched as a fourth cat approached, stalking delicately across the shaggy moss that covered the riverbank. Starlight sparkled at her paws and misted on her gray-blue fur. The newcomer halted and raked the waiting cats with an icy blue stare. “In the name of all Clans, why did you choose to meet here?” she demanded, irritably shaking one forepaw. “It’s far too wet, and I can’t hear myself think.” Another she-cat, with…

According to the Humane Society of the United States, estimated 6-8 million homeless animals enter an animal shelter each year. Every breed differs but most animals( speaking mainly of cats and dogs) go into heat cycle about every six months. If your dog lives to be 12 years old, that gives them 24 chances to become pregnant and reproduce litters over the course of their life.

Until one fortunate day. It was raining cats and dogs outside of the Los Angeles Shelter. It was a humid, cold, rainy day, with a slight breeze. One young couple, Laura and John Swanson, stumbled inside to find respite from the rain. “Look at the rain!” exclaimed Laura. “The rain is extraordinary for this time of year!” John replied. Since the couple was waiting for the rain to settle down, they decided to observe the animals. “I favor dogs over cats,” suggested the…
