I live in the country, some neighbors moved and left 7 cats, one being female, who is pregnant. Poor little thing only has one eye, but she sure is cute! Have taken her in to show her a bit of TLC, now the wait for her brood! They will all be neutered in the next 2 weeks and she will be spayed after her kittens are here. One good thing though, we have no mice!

kittens
IMO, as long as she is safe and comfortable in the sack, I would put it in one of the boxes that you set up for her. Just make sure she can get in and out. If she's not happy when all is said and done she'll move them to another place. You just might have to play hide and seek when you get back from town today.. lol You can email me if you'd like. I used to be a Vet Tech and am the proud gramma of nine 10-day-old Rotties. We lost 2 :(

Don't you just love them!!! We once had a cat who delivered 2 and labor stopped. By the next day still nothing more had happened and she was walking around like everything was fine. She was definitely still pregnant so I took her to the vet and he did a C section and hysterectomy. There were 3 more babies!
We adopt kittens and the last ones
got some sickness that is normal to shelter animals. What helped a lot was lysine. Seems crazy I know but it helps with the immune system. We put crush it in their food, but with a dog you could probably give in a piece of hot dog. It took about 2 days and they were significantly better. We also had an adult cat that started coughing violently like she was trying to cough up a hairball. This seemed to be mostly a stress reaction as she didn't care for the new additions and if they got anywhere near her she started coughing. We first did a course of antibiotics with very minimal relief and when the antibiotics stopped the coughing started back. We then did another course of antibiotics and a course of prednisone and that has stopped the coughing. We had to do a maintenance dose of prednisone for life as they decided she probably had stress-induced asthma and that if we totally discontinued the pred that another flare would be harder to treat. We're about 6 months into treatment and so far so good.
Sounds like you have your hands full.
Kittens being born..HELP...
any advice on what to do with these kittens? Mom has decided to have them in a paper grocery bag (did not like any of the places we had set up for her!) She is just a kitten herself, a stray who showed up pregnant. One has already been stillborn, not sure how many more to follow! I know to keep the other cats away from her, but I have got appointments in town all day and can't just have her in a paper sack? Is it okay to put her and the sack into one of the boxes or what? Any help would be appreciated...TIA, the new grandma!
We adopted 3 kittens from the shelter and they
sneezed like crazy, turned out it was a common infection in shelters, but our vet said to give 500 mg of lysine - we crushed it and mixed it with a tiny bit of canned food to make sure they got it. It really worked. We stopped it a couple of days and the sneezing came back, restarted it and it stopped. They eventually developed the immunities to fight it.
Update kittens....we thought there were 3...
but apparently there are only 2 (it was pretty early in the a.m., had not had both my eyes open or coffee at the time!) they seem to be ok, but mommy is my shadow when I am home. Is this usual? Mom stayed with them all last night, but now is out and about. They are still in the grocery sack, so for now we call them Paper and Plastic! They are cuties!
I have experience with children and grandchildren, but not kittens! Thanks to those who have responded with much appreciated advice! Keep it coming if you think of anything else!
I'm still waiting for the
coming in the spring." Anybody remember that? I think spring has come and gone. 
Don't keep waiting around...

so what are you waiting for?

waiting...
I am waiting for an internship, I have given up trying to find a job! I decided that everyone is right, you have to do the internship or mentoring program and that is the way to go!!! I think it is the way to get my foot in the door so to speak. Thank you for all who have given me good advice. I think this is the way to go! There is no other way to go, that is my belief anyway...
waiting
I totally understand....
What are waiting for?
Wouldn't it be fabulous if all of us young chicks in our 50s formed our own business together? I don't know what business it would be, but we'd sure have fun! I think we should all audition for Deal or No Deal, and whichever one wins, we split the winnings between us. Wouldn't that be a gas? 
I'm waiting too....
I have 25 years experience and have been posting on this site and one other..I want to be able to start PT and then when my full-time job stops Radiology Overtime, then I'll be free to do more at home. Is it the economy? I love being at home and dread having to pound the pavement and work somewhere at night!
I'll be waiting to see
those Keystrokes links.
Agree and waiting until we all will have to pay for

I kept waiting to be scared on that one
but it never happened. The ending was SO incredibly stupid that I can't believe I wasted $2.99 renting it.
Nope....not new.....still waiting!!

Just like when you have call waiting, you hit the

Take the one waiting for or try to work both sm
for short term to see which is really the one you want. Ya never can tell. If need be, be up front with current employer, tell them you want to be fair and say working both places to SEE rather than just quit them.
I am not sure about the waiting lists here yet,
but I do know that the program only takes so many students. That will probably be another thing I will have to factor in too. Great tip on taking the electives while waiting though. I am only going for the associate's degree as well. Are you interested in going into psych too?
what if I have call waiting?
Will the call waiting interfere with it?
Ha, sitting here waiting
for work!
waiting for work
just curious - who do you work for?
Been waiting 3 months
for an Illinois company to pay me the one and only invoice I sent them. Have sent emails so that everything is in writing. I have called and left message, but she's not in and doesn't call back. Excuses have been that client not billed, I'm been sick, will send next week, etc. Filed a complaint with Better Business Bureau, but they cannot help in matter. Talked to Labor Board, but they cannot help because I was a contractor, and they suggested I get a lawyer. I am now in process of writing a demand letter and then will file small claim lawsuit. I began asking for payment since 10 days after invoice and still nothing!
Only worked for them for a week because I knew it wasn't going to work out, so I think this is MTSO messing with me because they are ticked off. I thought of billing client I did work for just to embarrass her!
Sitting waiting right now....
I guess this gives us time to chat on MTStars.
Waiting for what? They don't do yearly updates.
What else is there to say? But if you want to keep on whining about something that is untrue be my guest.
kid's crazy waiting to see mars
do you have kids stay up late just to see mars... oh!! my poor little girl waited for this planet since the start of august, and she is hoping to see it tonight or tomorrow as big as moon. she even marked it on the calendar... and what's funny about it is that we have never spoted the mars... not once. grrrrr!!!!
Many years ago, I was in a waiting room
with a group of men waiting for interviews for the same job. After about 15 minutes of very cold, snarled stares from them, one of them spoke up and told me I should go home, that they had a family to support and I had no business there taking jobs from them. I guess it didn't matter to him that I was a divorced mother with 2 children of my own to support and that even if I had no one to support and was a billionaire, it was my right to be there for that job interview as much as his.
I stayed and went through the interview process. I didn't get the job; I don't think that man (just cannot bring myself to call him a gentleman) did either as he was not the manager I dealt with later in that office.
It really burned me that men would have that attitude toward women. It started a slow change in my perspective on the gender differences, equal rights for women, etc.
So why don't you post something about transcription? You just waiting for somebody SM
to post what you like? post something about transcription, don't gripe about what other people post.
She already bought it, too late for waiting! nm

Another day of waiting endlessly for work
But come Thursday and throughout the entire weekend wil come a stream of e-mails saying there is work now for us to make up our lines!!! Are we to be available 24/7 at these places? Does ANY company hire enough people and have enough work for those of us who actually WANT to work at a steady pace? Anyone? Really tired of this. I am a very dedictated MT.
My Yahoo IM is not working either...still waiting

...shows up in your que with the next 1 or 2 jobs waiting for you. nm

You should disable call-waiting because if you are....
doing a low-speaking doc and have the volume up high, you'll blow your ear drums out. On the other hand, if that is your only line, what if someone from work needs to get in touch with you? As far as losing the job you're working on, it would depend on how the system is set up and whether or not the work is assigned to you or in a pool. I'm not sure if the phone has a "hold" button or not. It's been a while since I used one but I had 2 lines so it wasn't a problem. Good luck.
It is best to disable the call waiting
so you have less interruptions as it can be annoying but I don't think it will mess up the dictation. Also, may want to look into getting voice mail through phone company rather than your own answering machine if you don't already have that so you don't miss any important calls. My set up is such that all unanswered calls go to voice mail.
WHAT did you do? I've been waiting to find out!
I right clicked and dragged a file from my desktop into ExpressScribe but it played back very distorted. Just wondering if there was a better way to do it.
I get tired of waiting for my check
I work because I need the money. Companies hire you because they need the money. All I am asking for is to be paid on time... Not 1, 2, or 3 days later due to our postal service. Mail the check earlier. I promise I will not deposit it until my scheduled pay day. Receiving a check in the mail on a weekend does not help me if my bank is not open. My creditors do not want to hear " I am waiting on my money before I can send you yours". Please.....
Have ordered it and am waiting for its arrival.
the tutorials, I think it will work for what I do.
Still waiting: $60 earned or received? nm

Sitting here waiting for work
I hate it when this happens. Sitting here waiting for a job to get into the pool. This is so stupid.
Waiting on new Dell computer, anyone else?
What in the world is going on with Dell, does anyone know? I have had a brand new computer ordered since about a month or so ago and today has been the 4th time they have prolonged the delivery, stating needing to get parts. I have ordered several from them before and never this problem. Has anyone else had a problem with them?
Walmart is a weekly MUST and of course we're waiting for

they have until jan 31st to get 'em out...waiting for mine

I wouldn't hold my breath waiting on their
I have a glitch with mine and waited a month and a half, not wanting to be pushy. This was after I telephoned and spoke with the girl from Textware that posts here sometimes, told her what my problem was and that I had sent an e-mail through their website and not heard back within a few days. She told me to send her the glossary I was having trouble with, and I e-mailed it both as a reply to her, in accordance with her instructions for sending, and also e-mailed again to tech support through my own e-mail provider. Anyway, I finally contacted again and she was going to be out for a couple of days, and though another person did try to help, I have been too busy to mess with it, but was irritated that I was told they did not receive my e-mails (I still have them in my box) and Kristen did not bother to call and let me know they did not receive it, even though I had taken the time to call her and explain my problem after the first unsuccessful e-mail. Sorry, I guess I needed to vent about that . . .
Anyway, if you have your glossaries saved and are sure you won't lose anything, I would uninstall and reinstall if it were me.
Can anyone tell me when 1099s are due out to ICs. I am still waiting for mine with many excuses fro

She was a big help and I miss her too. I guess she is waiting for the new site or
does not know this one is back, but she probably does. I miss her help.
Still waiting for response to my letter sent to President
Bush about Katrina. I called the White House and later sent in fax and so far have no response. Good luck.
Hi, Ms Indigo:I am still waiting for an answer to my quesfion?..nm

Actually, I'm sitting here waiting for the Dell technician to come to my house.
He's going to replace the CD-R drive in my computer, but I already told him it's not the drive. It's either the cable or the motherboard. I know this, because I took the Dell CD-R out of the computer and put it into my old computer. It worked. And when I took the CD drive out of my computer and put it into the Dell, it didn't work. But hey, I'm just a stupid female who only has a computer science degree and 10 years of technical experience. Let the dude from Dell figure it out, then it'll take forever to get the right parts here.
