one other thing to try is sprinkling Acidophilus Probiotic powder on his food once per day.  You buy it in the refrigerated health food area.  It comes in caplets you which you open and sprinkle over some wet food.  The caplets must be kept in the refrigerator because they contain benificial...

I have an eighteen year old cat.  She has the beginnings of kidney disease.  I have tried to get her to eat the special kidney food but she just plain refuses.  She went for almost 4 days without eating at all rather than eat the special hard or soft food (perscription).  So she eats friskies...

We found/adopted a persian cat this summer. She was severly under fed. We took her to the vet multiple times and had her treated for it seemed just about everything. She has been fine since and has put on weight but is by no means overweight. Yesterday I noticed she had gotten messy behind...

Help. After I adopted a second cat, my first cat started peeing on my couch. I have taken her to the vet and changed a number of things and the situation has gotten better if not been resolved. The problem. I took the covers off the affected cusions. The fabic appears to be dry clean...

This morning I took off the bandage and she clearly has a small scar which extends about 1/2 inch beyond the new incision towards the front. The entire scar must have been very visible and the vet just decided to operate for no reason anyway. Thank you for all the advise on what I can do about...

I have fed my 12 year-old cat Purina One her whole life and she seems healthy and happy. Her coat is beautiful and she has never been ill. I don't think there is anything wrong with buying a good quality catfood at the grocery.

Let me see if this works - Cindy sitting on my sons' legos (her favorite spot)

I'd love to post a picture but can not figure out how. Any instructions please!

She is a Persian or at least part Persian. We have tried to find the owners but believe she came from some people who moved out of a rental house 3 weeks before we took her in. We saw her a couple of times in that three weeks but were at first unsure if she had an owner until her condition...

We just found a malnourished stray cat (not feral). We have taken her to the vet and gotten antibiotics, wormers and shots. She is young - probably 6-9 months old. The vet said he can not tell if she is fixed or not. He said she may or may not come into heat because of her weight for a while...
