    What else besides boiled rice and chicken?

    Hi folks. Just wanted to let you all know that it appears that it ws the food that was causing the problem. Within 1 1/2 days of me giving Lucky his good ol' Nutro Complete (for Adult cats), his stool went back to normal and has been fine every since. Amazing! Thank-you everyone for your help...

    What else besides boiled rice and chicken?

    Hmmm. I'll try that pumkin concept. He doesn't seem to like wet stuff but we'll try! As far as food...I was using Nutro Complete for indoor cats and over the holidays my mom who was kitty sitting gave him "Blue Spa Direct" And he had no problems. When I got back, I began mixing Blue Spa /Nutro...

    What else besides boiled rice and chicken?

    Well the thing is he doesn't eat wet food and with human food (which is normally wet) I think it's the smell (which food processing doesn't help). Problematic I know.

    How much does your cat drink?

    Thanks everyone! Looks like Lucky drinks the average amount then. GOOD to know!! (ps I give her dry food...it's what she likes-so that probably gets her more thirsty too). Thanks again everyone!

    How much does your cat drink?

    Hi folks. Lucky's mom writing. (she's a 1 1/2 year old female that I inherited from my grandmother). She drinks a lot more than my childhood cat but seems healthy and pretty active.

    Constantly hungry cat

(I'd post a picture but I don't...
