    Cats with allergy issues/hygiene issues

    I'll have to try one of those others brands to see if they help any. They have been on Iams Lamb & Rice formula for long enough now that they should be used to it. I'm still going to find another vet to take these guys to. Even though my craxy calico smells a lot better after her bath, she...

    Cats with allergy issues/hygiene issues

    Thanks everyone for the input. (I'm in NE TN, by the way. Very little in the way of any specialty shops for anything...) I was indeed concerned about the byproducts in this cat food even though they were doing slightly better initially. I have been feeding them only dry cat food, one to help...

    Stray hiding in house, no kittens, no longer pregnant

    I need some advice on what to do for this stray that is hiding in my house. We have been taming a feral kitten, now a full-grown and until a few days ago, pregnant cat. She only recently starting coming indoors, would eat at the food dish and want to go out again pretty quickly. Last Thursday...
