Your Coton Questions

It's crazy how fast time is flying this summer. I've been busy with family and traveling and it seems I blinked and it's almost Autumn. Luc has mellowed quite a bit over the years and now I've got people fighting over who gets to keep him when I'm traveling. He didn't even get mad when I adopted a new cat last month. He's such a sweetheart!

I've had a few visitors tell me recently that their questions on the website aren't being answered. Please make sure that if you have a question, you start a new thread and don't just ask the question in the comments of someone else's question.

Here are links to the most common types of questions:

And remember, if your question isn't being published at all, it's likely because the question has already been asked and answered several times. You can do a search on the website to find out if that's the case.
