No more Profender at this house after several successful years. One cat in 5 had issues. The Emodepside part is the trouble. He has had Praziquantel in other products with no problem. I can't use Profender on him ever again. And I'm opting for something else. Thought I better share. I've had 5...

I used to watch my cat Merlin catch, kill and chew a whole rabbit once. Cats can actually chew and will. lol...Bo preferred small thumbnail sized chunks. Peep liked hers a little smaller but she never missed a meal. The vet said their teeth were very clean for being 9 and 5 years old...

Good points- thanks for the info on the Brita and such- good to know. As I mentioned- I already have 7.0-6.5 ph water so I only use the fridge door carbon filter. Here's an article about distilled. She says as long as there is a balanced diet being fed, then distilled is fine. ...

If it were me and this is just me and my mode of operation, I'd get my water tested and talk to the vet to see if any of that is contributing to my cat's health issues. I had reef tanks for a while which tuned me to water quality. I learned that distilled water isn't that great for cats because...

I used Dr. Pierson's recipe and I have also used Feline Pride rabbit (expensive and not dependable to get it before it thaws out). I never had to worry about leaving it out all day. Once mine started eating it, they would eat that first and have the canned food later in the day. I left mine out...

I know this is an old thread but I want to get some additional information out there about the symptoms being described. I can't speak to the tail curling up issue. I have had a docked Manx before and he was already done before he got older. I am talking about the sticking to the fur issue and...

Oh- and you might try a little raw liver or raw chicken thigh as a treat to see if she likes it. That sharp pain are her nerves firing along the pressure points in the vertebrae. Bo had the same issues. Acupuncture fixed him. Are you sure the Xray had no the discs either bulging, crushed and or...

We have a similar issue with our Bo. He will only tolerate a raw diet - see catinfo.org for a recipe- we cannot use the egg but we use the rest. Works great- eliminates the runs immediately if yours will eat it. Pain- Vetionx pain management works. And so does acupuncture. It works great if the...

All- Wanted to share!! Worked on a 3year old IBD cat with a vet for a year! Prescription food @58.00 for 7lbs, steroids, meds, etc....nothing worked. Given an ultimatum by my significant other- afterall- no one should live with cat feces all over the home no matter how little-, couldn't get the...
