    Your thoughts on what is wrong with my cat

    She regularly ate a 5 oz can of food (1/2 in am, and 1/2 in pm (weruva my BFF brand), and about 1/8 cup of kibble later on in the evening (mix of Royal canin "calm" from vet, and grain free premium from Pet Valu).  Funny thing is she never pukes after meals, it is always a few hours after...

    Your thoughts on what is wrong with my cat

    I was wondering what some of your thoughts are on what may be wrong with my cat. She's around 2 years old and I adopted her a year ago.  She's a lively, fun and playful kitty. She's always been a puker, but her pukes started to become darker, at times very dark brown.  We thought it might just...

    advice for feeding 3 cats, trying to find good dry kibble to balance with wet

    Yeah, #2 & 3 love wet food, but not #1, she has always turned her nose away at it.  I don't mind her on dry because she never over eats, but I would love to get her on a less expensive brand.   How much canned food do you feed your cats?  One site recommends that the average adult needs about...

    advice for feeding 3 cats, trying to find good dry kibble to balance with wet

    I'm feeding them grain free canned food which I'm happy they love, and a twice a day feeding.  I refuse to do  morning feedings though.  I did that with 2 previous cats and they never ever let us sleep in!  LOL I've been trying to get them on a grain free dry food but so far they don't seem to...

    advice for feeding 3 cats, trying to find good dry kibble to balance with wet

    Hi, I have recently adopted 2 new cats and am still trying to figure out feeding. My 1st cat is about 5, good weight, very picky and only eats dry kibble, she absolutely won't touch wet food. She has always been a grazer, never eats too much and has stayed at a good weight. Cat's 2 & 3 are both...

    Ideas of how to clean farm smell out of cat?

    I recently adopted another kitty, a male who came from a farm.  He still has this "farmy" smell about him and I would like to avoid bathing him if possible as I don't want to traumatize him if I don't have to.  I have brushed and furminated him but the smell lingers.  Is there a safe way to dry...

    Any secrets to getting meds into my cat?

    Yes, i believe it was compounded with a fishy flavour.  Well today, i tried some salmon on him, he loved the juice but just kept licking it up all around the meds, and then puked it all up...so not going to do that again.    I went back to an old treat he likes and managed to sneak some in...

    Any secrets to getting meds into my cat?

    Thanks guys. I'll keep trying.  Part of the problem is he is not eating much.  I've been opening can after can of cat food to find one he'll eat.  The one he hated yesterday, he'll eat today.  I'm pretty sure he's playing with me.   I tried chicken baby food which he turned his nose to.  Tried...

    Any secrets to getting meds into my cat?

    I hope someone might have some tricks they can recommend that they use on their cats to get them to take their meds. I have to give my cat prednisone once a day.  We tried pills, he won't touch pill pockets, I tried hiding them in treats, and in food, tried the pill popper, and even the vet...
