Nope. There's a thread somewhere in GD, but I don't know how far back it is. Try searching for 'Marketplace', see what comes up. For now at least, no selling, trading, of any kind to be done on this board. Sad, but maybe not permanent.
I know exactly how you feel LoriB! I was on vacation too, and then I came home and one of my cats was VERY sick and has been hospitalized (still is, but now will recover, thank God!) and I have a HUGE vet bill...and no Marketplace to sell my new pewter City! I couldn't believe it. It's a shame. Maybe they will be able to bring it back at some point. But there is still eBay...and their outrageous fees!

Apparently while we were gone (and the pet sitter was out for the afternoon) he got into some kind of string. We have no idea what it is, as it has not "passed" yet, but after three days of testing, x-rays, ultrasounds, blood work, and rehydrating (he was almost dead when we found him Friday night after returning home), the LATEST vet (we ended up taking him to a specialist after one vet suggested that we might have to put him down) fed him berium and took more x-rays and found the string wrapped around the base of his tongue, way down his throat. She was able to cut the string down the center and today it passed to his small intestine. He was going to have surgery this morning, but now that the string has been cut it moved through, so he will be hospitalized and under observation until it makes its way out (since he didn't eat for three days). We are SO relieved that they found it, and were able to save him!
Oh no! I hope your kitty will be okay. We left our dog with my mother in law and she came by once a day to check on our cat, who is an indoor-only cat. I have never left my pets before (we don't vacation much!) and I was worried about something like that happening to my cat. Hope all is well with your lil' kitty!
ETenebris, sorry to hear what happened to your cat!!
it must have been so frightening to come home to him in that state. i'm glad he'll be on his way to recovery soon.
