References: If you don't send your cat out wearing a collar, I guess it definitely will not be wearing a bell. I personally hate to see our neighbor's cats kill birds in my yard (or anywhere else for that matter). Is there a safe way to bell a cat that will not overly endanger its life? - Toby Robison (not Robinson!) allegra!eosp1!robison or: decvax!ittvax!eosp1!robison or (emergency): princeton!eosp1!robison

My mother prefers a more "natural" method for ridding cats of fleas - try using Brewer's Yeast! She mixes about a tablespoon full with her cat's wet food each morning, and he has never had a flea. She also looked after a neighbor's cat for several months while the neighbor was away, and completely ridded her cat of fleas. I remember looking at the bottle once, and it seems that there are lots of vitamins added, so it's good for the cat in other ways as well. -- roger long pertec computer corp {ucbvax!unisoft | scgvaxd | trwrb | felix}!pertec!bytebug
