Have you tried heating the leftover wet food in the microwave for a few seconds before serving it?  

Yeh, my husband took them to the vet this morning and they weren't too pleased that we took the cones off.  They gave him a bunch of horror stories about wounds reopening etc...  My husband decided to work from home today to watch the cats and make sure that they don't get in any trouble, and we...

I am just looking to get a sanity check here.   I have two kittens, 4.5 months old, that just got spayed/neutered yesterday.  I have had kittens spayed and neutered at different vets before, and basically, the procedure was done and the cats were sent home and that was that.  I think I may have...

Just wanted to update that at the vet visit she just had, both cats had gained over a pound in just a few weeks!  The male is now 4.1 lbs and the female 3lbs, so it seems that they are both growing well.  The respiratory thing also seems to have gone away too.  Both kittens seem settled in.  In...

Maybe I'll get flamed for this, but if the neutering doesn't work, ahve you tried a water spray gun?  I have used it when my cats were getting into something I don't want them into.  

Okay, I am looking for someone to talk me down.  I bought two Maine Coon kittens from a local family breeder.  I viewed the cats at 9 weeks and they looked very playful, healthy and happy.  I brought one home two weeks ago after he got his vaccination, a male (my avatar) and he is everything a...

Ohhh those are some lovely flame ragdoll pics!  That is a pretty rare color.  I can't tell if it's a lynx or a point.  Is his tail red too? I had two ragdolls, one who passed away from kidney disease at age 5, and one who passed away at age 17 last year and also died of kidney failure.  One was...

My new kitten was eating Friskies shreds at the breeders place, and so I bought some just to make an easy transition for him, thinking I might switch to another food.  But he LOVES, and I mean LOVES that food.  I did mix a little fancy feast pate in with the shreds last night, and he seemed to...

I am in the same boat, almost exactly.  We lost our cat last summer and are adopting two kittens, one we are picking up in just a few hours!   I think we are ready, but I am nervous that I am going to screw things up.  From when we visited the breeder, our cat is a bit on the shy side so I think...

Thanks for the advice!  I will head to Petco or Unleashed and look for a good kitten food with a lot of protein in the mix.  The fountain is a good idea too.  We used to have one years ago for my old cat who died last year.  She loved to drink from the faucet later in life, and would actually...

I am adopting two Maine Coon kittens very soon - yay!.   They are 12 weeks old.  They are currently on Purina Kitten Chow and Friskies Shreds and so I have some ready for them since that is what they are used to.  Doing the research, it seems that these are not the healthiest foods, so I'd like...
