My vet also put my cat on the S/D diet. She hates the wet food but doesn't really mind the hard. The vet said that she can only stay on this food for one month because if she stays on it longer it can make her prone to developing other types of crystals that will not be treatable with diet. I am...

I have just had to deal with the same problem. What a confusing subject!I am totally confused. I have read so much information on stuvite crystals and come up with a few things. There is a product made by a company called "Halo" its called Xtra C. Its a vitamin c suppelment that is supposed to...

Hi, I have a long haired white cat with a similar problem. She never had diarrhea but for some reason her butt was always dirty. She is somewhat overweight and does have some difficulty cleaning back there. I switched her food to one that does not contain corn and I noticed a huge difference...

I am a former user of Purina One and Purina ProPlan. Now I feed my cats Chicken soup. They love it and I have noticed a big difference in their coats.I know you don't want to spend a lot of money, and I don't either, but once you switch to a good premium food you actually spend about the same...

I have just noticed that my female cat is very sensitive around her anal area. I was wondering where exactly the anal glands are located and what problems they can cause. Can they cause the cat to have loose stools? Also every time she urinates it gets all over her, I have never seen this...

Thanks for the advice. I'll try the scratching post again.

Its just how they show you that they are relaxed and comfortable. My cats do it on my pillow before we go to sleep. This is what they did to their mothers, you should be happy they he feels good enough with you to knead you chest. He's just saying I love you.

Try using a reduced calorie food, ones I like are Natural Balance reduced calorie and Nutro Natural Choice.

I use the fountain because my cats are prone to UTIs and they need to drink more water, they do like it and drink more than before. I don't know how well it filters though. Good luck moving!

I've been feeding my cats Chicken Soup for 3 weeks now. They really like it and its the only premium food they have ever liked. Coats are shiny and less litter box waste.

Maybe he is tired of eating the Whiskas food. I feed it to my cats for a while and then they stopped eating it. I have to switch up and only feed them soft food 1-2 times a week. They just won't eat it everyday.

Maybe the owners are coming back for them since they left the litter boxes, I don't know how someone could leave them trapped in an apartment. If they were not coming back for them I would hope they would have at least let them outside so they could have a chance at finding food. That was great...

My boyfriend's cat has the same problem. He is a large cat and somewhat overweight. He always eats his food very fast and vomits probably 5 times a week. Every time he would let him outside Otis would eat grass and come back inside and vomit. We really didn't understand why he was doing this...

I have two indoor cats that love to scratch on my furniture. I have bought scratching posts before and they won't touch them, always go back to the couch! Will clipping their claws help them stop?

I have had the same problem with my persian cat. Is the poop solid or loose. My cat was having a problem with the food I was feeding and she was having diarrhea, but since I've changed foods we haven't had nearly the problems we used to. I do keep the hair back there cut short just to make...
