Poor Houdini and his humans !!! My heart goes out to you all; it's such a difficult time. Have you visited Dr. Lisa Pearson's website, catinfo.org ? She recommends even the cheapest wet food over ANY dry kibble. I also had a horrible time with my Loki as he blocked 4 times within 2 1/2...

Hi LisaHE, I with you on Feline Natural; the food is top quality and to my surprise my brood (3) loves this over Ziwipeak !  I love it because it actually is packed with water  and I don't have to add water as I did with Ziwipeak.   I have learned with one boy having PU surgery, it's better...

Hi Mr. Frank, My thoughts and prayers are with you and Mr. Frank.  My Loki blocked on 8/14/2014 and it's hard to believe we made it through all the unknowns.  He's totally thriving now and hasn't had one problem since his surgery in late October.  You too will make it through this.  Thanks to...

Hi Bonitababy !  Paw-some...crack cat baby !  When I went to the holistic vet, she told me to stop any annual vaccinations (don't want to start another thread here...) but in my case, Loki had several compound vaccinations before he broke out with a wild case of ringworm. (when he was 3 months...

Tried the H&G, Pork, Chicken and Chicken, Duck, Salmon and they wouldn't touch it.  I think it's the consistency, it's too whipped or something.  Looks like the ingredients are top shelf but for some reason they don't like it.    ZiwiPeak Rabbit & Lamb and Venison & Fish are staples in my...

Hi there TheHistorian.  I feel your pain as I've been down that road.  When Loki and Luna were kittens, they hated wet food, wouldn't touch it.  I can't tell you how many different brands I bought hoping they would like something.  And....they didn't.  So, I gave up and fed them dry ().  After...

Thanks so much GoHolistic!  Got a call from the ER surgeon yesterday.  Loki's latest C&S results were negative for bacterial infections !  What a supreme relief !  I chose to take the advice of Dr. Pierson, Dr. Elizabeth Hodgins (great book on cat health) and listen to my gut.  I did not feed...

Thanks GoHolistic for the good vibes!  I haven't been on line for a while trying to get through the first 3/4 weeks post surgery.  What a journey it has been.  Many of us have read Dr. Lisa Pierson's advice on her website, but last week I read  "how catinfo.org came to be.  If you haven't read...

I'm with you on the budget, but I feel like I'd rather spend it on preventative than emergency services.  And I know that's not for everyone but I'm wiling to give up a Friday night dinner and drinks for my baby !  It's so weird that I have friends and family with male cats that are on a dry...

Hi Mona, Your tuxedos are beautiful !  Have you tried ZiwiPeaks rabbit and lamb ?  It's by far Loki's favorite.  I can't seem to find anything "chicken" that he will eat in wet form.  I've heard that once they get addicted to fish it's very hard to get them to eat something else. I did look at...

You could probably reach out to customer service at ZiwiPeak and they'll send you some samples.  Try Kimberly Mitchell -  [email protected].  I can't believe how good it smells when you open the can.  The first time I opened a can he came running, which he has never done before.  Good Luck...

Once Loki was on c/d he would still occasionally whine for dry food.  It's only because he could smell it.  Now that it's out of the house...gone...he hasn't missed it a bit.  I've never seem him lick his food bowl so clean since he's been on ZiwiPeak.  I'm reading Your Cat - Simple New Secrets...

Hi - check out Dr. Lisa Pierson's website:  catinfo.org.  http://www.catinfo.org/docs/FoodChartPublic9-22-12.pdf and.... I recently changed my Loki's diet to ZiwiPeak canned food.  While it might cost a little more, I'm hoping I won't be spending more at the vet's office on acidifciers...

Hi GusMom and MissNerves and all others on this thread.  My 2/12 year old male cat, Loki has been home now for 8 days post PU surgery and almost a week at the after hours emergency clinic.  My heart goes out to all who have experienced UO and PU surgery.  I had no idea about any of this until...
