    No Wonder People Don't Understand Pet Nutrition

    Aphro's vet told me that even low end wet food is better than high end dry food. I don't know if I necessarily believe this for all cats b/c I know plenty of cats who do well on both. However, dry food (even the high end stuff, I exclusively fed her Innova Evo), was really packing the pounds on...

    Vet's advice worked! Aphro lost weight!

    So I know a lot of cat mommy's have the same problem of trying to get your cat to lose a little weight. Well, I brought Aphro to the vet and the vet told me that Aphro's dandruff and excessive hairball problem was due to her being overweight (she was about 15 lbs, supposed to be around...

    Pet Gold Cat Litter?

    Is Pet Gold Cat Litter any good? Better than Tidy Cats Scoopable? Or are the crystals better?

    Any Cat Food Guru's Out There?

    Agreed. Innova EVO has the lowest carb content of all the kibble.. I've found that it takes less EVO to feed my cat than it did Nutro. Canned food is definitely a good option also.

    Merrick Pet food

    The texture is not pate, it's chunky.. you can actually see the individual ingredients. Aphro's faves are Turduckden, Cowboy Cookout, and Grammy's Pot Pie.

    Losing battle...

    I think a good food with chunks or non-pate style would be more appealing to my kitty.. i think it may be one of the reasons why she liked FF so much. Any suggestions? She didn't like Merrick and it was chunky.. so I don't know. Thanks for the idea of mixing the food.. might taste weird..

    Losing battle...

    After experimenting with few cat foods and donating many-a-bags of untouched food , I finally found Innova EVO dry to be her absolute favorite (she inhales this stuff ). However, I'd really like her to eat mostly wet with a little dry throughout the day to nibble on. Natural Choice was...

    Apt dwellers, how many cats is too many?

    I live in a one bedroom apt (bdrm, living room, kitchen, bathroom, mini hallway).. it's a pretty good size for a one bedroom (larger than most here in San Jose), but I was just wondering how many cats would be too many for a smaller place like this? I would love to get another playmate for my...

    What amusing things does your cat do?

    My cat HATES closed doors, she'll meow and meow like her life has just come to an end until the door is opened (not that she has to be in the same room when the doors are opened, she just doesn't like the fact that she's not able to be in the room). If I call her name, Aphro, in an excited...

    Do you drink after your cats?

    I'll share food with my cat (which my bf thinks is absolutely disgusting as he won't even kiss a pet on the head =( ), kiss my kitty's nose, but if she tries to lick my lips.. no no no.
