My cat Jack has a history of attacking people. He hates the vet and he can be heard out in the waiting room. Unfortunately, Jack has a number of medical issues and has to do that on a fairly regular basis. Ever since the first time I took him to this new vet (I had one that came here prior...
Sounds like that is the general consensus.
Is unscented the same as fragrance/perfume free? Jack has tons of allergies and sensitivities, that is my biggest concern.
Thanks everyone!
I actually asked this of my vet a few months back when I had what I thought was an eye infection. She told me it depended if it was bacterial, viral or fungal. That viral was very unlikely to be transmittable to my cat. Bacterial was most transmittable, be sure to wash your hands a lot etc...
Hey there, its been some time and Jack has been doing pretty well on all his medications and prescription food... unfortunately, I just found out that Fresh Step Perfume and Dye Free is being discontinued. Jack has had some problems with other litters. All the non-clay ones have proven...
After being home for one night his diarrhea returned with a vengance. I changed his cat litter to a clay litter, and we added two more remedies to his supplements and he has been doing well since. (About 2 weeks now)
The incision from the tumor removal is pretty much completely healed.
The lab...
Jack has been doing better and I should be able to bring him home tomorrow... assuming he behaves and doesn't rip open the incision or anything. Also the biopsy results came it, the tumor was benign!
He hasn't had any diarrhea since starting all the supplements and prescription allergy food...
So, I picked Jack up today. He was home a grand total of 2 hours when he had to go back. He used his back foot to rip open the incision on his back between his shoulder blades. That was terrifying.
My vet and I have decided to keep him there until he has recovered enough to not need...
Well, Jack has to spend another night at the vets this evening. Simply to recover from being under anesthesia. The lump was removed and sent to be biopsied so we have to wait for that. We will also be waiting for the allergy via blood test.
His White blood cell count was too low, his kidney and...
I have to take Jack to the vet this evening where he will be staying overnight. He is having several tests while under anesthesia tomorrow including a tumor biopsy.
I am nervous about all of it, the trip to the vet in the car, leaving him there, the anesthesia, the results of the tests and how...
Jack did not enjoy the new vet trip at all. I have never seen him get so vicious and upset.
Anyway, I now have some prescription food, more bene-bac, and some homepathic pellets for on his food. I am taking him back to drop him off monday night, so that he can be put under on tuesday for...
Ugh... and it appears we may be back to the drawing board again. However this tiem I am not too sure. Although he had a loose stool just a bit ago... (Pardon the slightly graphic portion of this) it wasn't all like that and I had a new refrigerator delivered today. He is terrified of people...
I am still working him in to the Natures Balance Duck and Green Pean dry. I switch sooo slowly these days. He is still eating some boiled chicken and rice as well.
I also got some of the bene-bac and gave him a dose of that on Tuesday. He likes it enough to just lick it straight off my...
Jack used to eat California Natural Chicken and Brown Rice Dry. He ate that for over a year, with no problem. This was after casting about for something that he wasn't sensitive to.
Jack started having diarrhea a little over a month ago, he has not had it constantly since then. It took me...
I have not tried anything like that, I am too afraid to throw something else in to the mix. As I am trying to track down what the actual problem is I don't want to be giving him 2 new things at the same time.
Thanks for the recipe!
The short version of the background is that he has had some diarrhea problems. Here is a link to another thread if you wanna go that far:

Moving this to nutrition because we are fairly certain its a food sensitivity of some sort...
