I'm doing a cooked diet with U stew additive. The only proteins I have readily available are chicken, beef and pork. I live in a rural area and grocery stores are limited. However, there's a butcher that lives the next town over that guarantees his chicken is hormone free so this was my first...
Know where you coming from Lisa. I post from my phone as well and it can definitely be frustrating.
I've noticed weight gain in Ramse but I feel he's still a little thin. I also think Bear Bear is smaller but I'm so used to plump free fed kitties Im not sure what a lean healthy cat should look...
Wow Lisa, 4 times a day! Would you say that's common for folks who feed a raw diet? I thought 3 times a day was something. Hahah! I've decided to start looking into a dehydrator and make cat treats. My thinking is that some of this behavior is a little OCD. Certain feedings they are barely...
Little update: The U Stew is going well. Ramses has put some weight back on and his stool is normal most days. I feed both kitties aprox. three 2oz meals a day. I tried feeding them 2 larger meals a day but mid day they were driving me crazy with begging, breaking into the trash and any other...
The U Stew is a big hit with my boys. So much so they got the unopened bag down off the counter and tore little holes in it before I even opened it. Ramses still looks a little skinny I guess from the long bout with diahrea but hopefully we're on the uphill climb now. Will continue to update...
U Stew on the menu for tomorrow. Meanwhile, the diarrhea is pretty much stopped since the dog food was contained. I will let you guys know what the kids think of it.
Still hadn't gotten the U Stew as of yesterday but I understand now why his poop got terribly loose again. I discovered he had torn a small hole in the dog food bag and was having late night snacks. This also explains the reason he had not been interested in his prepared chicken. I feel terrible...
Thanks again for the continued help and the compliment on my pic LTS3! Love them boys so much!
We didn't have any accidents last night but his poop was loose again this morning. Very anxious to get our U Stew! Sure hope these guys will eat it!
Just wanted to share a picture of my boys and say thanks. Today was a good day and we're grateful. Black kittes rule! (Ramses on the left, Bear Bear on the right)
Just had our first solid poop from Ramses in months! yay! I know we're not out of the woods yet but I trhink my suspicions were right about the prescription diet. It just wasn't agreeing with him.
I just bought 6 pounds of chicken thighs, three pounds of breast and a little tub of chicken...
So day 2 after taking Ramses off the Hills prescription diet and no accidents. Now I'm a little concerned because he hasn't pooped at all since Thursday night. He's been eating cooked chicken and broth for the last couple days. The U Stew should be here by mid week so hopefully he'll be alright...
Finally got a call into my vet and as I suspected they want to try Ramses on another prescription diet. It was also highly recommended that I try him on this food first because they've had good result with cats with similar symptoms as my baby...
