what helpful tip about cats have you learnt from yahoo answers?
I have learnt a lot more about cats just from the answers to common questions about cats on this site - things I kinda "suspected" before and things I did not know yet. For example, the cause and sgns of diabetes in cats. Now I can take steps to prevent it from developing in my cats. I think Yahoo answers is real handy this way.

I'm impressed by how many people love cats and care for them. Keep up the great work!
I have learned that most people do not need to own a pet. If your first thought when your pet gets ill is to ask here then you have a problem. Your first thought should be call a vet. I am sure that for 99.9% of you it's a free call. If you don't feel you can afford a routine vet visit and shots then don't get an animal. Most clinics can direct you to a low cost vet that can help you out if necessary. Most vets will set up a payment plan for those emergency cases where the pet needs treatment and you just don't have that much money.
I guess what I am saying here is, if you can't afford it don't get it.
i havent learned any thing in yahoo persay well not about cats but i agree that yahoo is a verry helful tool i dont think ive ever had a quesstion that i asked that i didnt get a good answer for but if your looking for tips on cats i have a few kitties like dog food but the dont prefer it to their own and they shouldnt eat dog food it gives them intestinal problems anouther is when your 8 years old you should never ask you older brother to "baby sit "your cat he WILL hide that cat from you and tell you it died and then offer funeral survices for a small fee ofcourse never assume a declawed cat cant hurt you they still have teeth and last but not least this ones sad but true never put a collar on a small kitten if the collar is too big give it up and dont "adjust" the color to make it work the kitty will get hurt
I've had cats for many years now and I never realized that most of the cat food has corn or corn products in it and that it is keeping my fat cat fat.
(And yes, he has been on weight-control food, in controlled portions and yes, he does get exercise and he still didn't lose weight, but the brands I had tried all had corn in them.)
I'm now trying a non-corn cat food to see if he will lose weight, otherwise, he will be retired from the household pet cat show next January.
I have learned a few things, but I have a lot of knowledge about cats to begin with, I do a lot of reading and research on my own and I enjoy sharring it with people.
