replies: text:  Okay, make that :Category:Mammal species templates, but with the index "|Cat". I was guessing I or other folk would find cat-related templates to populate  someday. Sardanaphalus (talk) 21:50, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Looking at a few of the templates in that latter category, it seems that they are more navboxes between individual species, geni, taxa, etc - not between species articles and more 'philosophical' topics such as "history of the cat".  I'm not sure that this recategorisation is necessary. Happy‑melon 16:25, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

message: I think that the American Keuda should be added to the breed list on the template. Even though it's only experimental, I'm pretty sure that's what the Munchkin is too.  71.72.129.4 (talk) 15:38, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Add "Meow"

message: Please add Feline hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (abbreviated as HCM) to the Health section. It's a fairly common genetic heart disease among Maine Coons, Ragdolls, and other domestic cats. If left untreated, it leads to an extremely painful process of blood clots breaking off of the heart and blocking the cat's hind legs' arteries, causing paralysis. It's estimated that 1/3 of Maine Coons have this disease. Information about HCM is vital knowledge for cat owners and researchers.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Wo0ter08 (talk • contribs) 
:Done, though I added it as a pipe to the section of the article dealing with the cat disorder, as opposed to using the redirect to the article mainly on the human disorder. I also alphabetized the entire template.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 14:37, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit Request to Health 

message: Under the "Health" group, change Feline Hepatic Lipidosis to Feline hepatic lipidosis to avoid the redirect. Thanks. --Lightsup55 ( T | C ) 17:16, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Toyger moved from hybrid 

message: I made an edit to the template yesterday, but wondered afterwards whether I'd been too bold. In case further discussion is required, here's a larger explanation of the changes than would fit in the edit summary:
* Deaf white cat: page about congenital deafness, not coat color, so moved out of Coat genetics section (also updated to new page name of Congenital sensorineural deafness in cats)
* Veterinary anesthesia: not cat-specific (and no other general "veterinary" articles are included in this template)
* Cat-scratch disease: a disease which affects humans, but in which the causative bacteria is spread to humans by cats, so moved it to the Human–cat interaction section
* New section for Diseases and disorders: If health is the state of being free of disease, then including a long list of diseases under health seems illogical, but (more importantly) made it difficult to find the true "health" items buried in the list. I used Diseases and disorders rather than just Diseases since diseases cause "discomfort and dysfuntion", and that does not apply to conditions with a lack of usual function which don't cause discomfort (e.g., deafness).
