Pet barriers will fit either your Car, Van or Suv. Vehicle barriers should always be used when traveling with your doggie in car, van or SUV. They not only protect your best pet friend, but you and your passengers as well. The different styles of pet barriers will allow you to fill your needs. There are barriers for small cars, mini and full size vans and SUV's.

We also needed a pet ramp and found training Charlie to use it was pretty simple: Charlie adapted to ramp easily but we've been told that some of our doggies don't, we suggest you put ramp flat on ground & walk your pet friend over it (a reward placed on ramp also helps or you might try feeding him on ramp once or twice). When you raise ramp, your pets favorite treat placed towards top of ramp also works first time.

We had fun snooping around for dog travel supplies. Our pets always have softened our hearts, put smiles on our faces and even released stress as our minds went shopping for our family's best pet friend. Sit back, relax and enjoy yourself after-all think of all joy those lovable pets of ours bring into our lives.

After antibiotics treatment was finished, we returned to vet so he could undergo some blood tests to determine if he suffered from feline leukaemia or feline aids and I'm happy to report that he didn't have either.

That then left way clear for him to undergo dental treatment and have six rotten teeth extracted. He was put on antibiotics again as infection from teeth was starting to reassert itself and he was on tablets until surgery (15 days later, when vet determined that he was ready to undergo extractions).

The operation went smoothly and he returned home later that day. Naturally, with such a large number of extractions, he found eating to be somewhat comfortable. But you can't keep a good cat down! After a couple of days, he was eating normally again. A week after surgery I took him back to vet for his post-operative check-up. His gums had healed over nicely after extractions but he still had a bit of gingivitis. The vet was a little concerned that Ginger might be carrying cat-flu virus - apparently prolonged gingivitis is a symptom. On other hand, inflammation may just have been last remnants of chronic infection he suffered last year from his teeth. He was put on a further two weeks of antibiotics which, we hoped, would finally clear everything up.

Aside from that, he was in fine fettle. He must have been a lot more comfortable with teeth removed as his purring became much louder over following week. And he was much more playful.

After latest two-week antibiotic treatment, it was time for another check-up visit to vet. The good news was that Ginger was in good health. His gums had healed perfectly after extractions. He'd even put on weight, weighing in at 5.2kg (11.5 lbs) which is pretty hefty for a cat. His gums, in general, (i.e. not related to surgery) remained inflamed even after all post-op antibiotics. The vet came to conclusion that Ginger was suffering from persistent cat flu. His only current symptoms were gingivitis - while no other symptoms were present, he is a cat-flu carrier. Aside from that, he’s very healthy. The downside is that he cannot be placed in a home where cats already reside. The vet was adamant about this saying that any household that takes him in will just introduce long term problems for their own cats.

Ginger's still living at his old house. My buddy is still care-taking out there and is giving Ginger lots of care and attention. We're on lookout for someone who'll be willing to give him a home in next couple of months. He's such an affectionate cat that I don't think that'll be a problem.

I'd like to thank all those who took time and effort to send in donations. It's life-affirming to know that there are caring people out there. But story's not over. Ginger still needs to be re-homed but at least we have a few months to line up a new residence...

One final note: I only recently learned Ginger's real name. Apparently, it's Redpuss!
