Anyone else notice an increase in shedding after starting on TOTW??? Kiwi was being fed Before Grain chicken, and barely shed. In fact she is a white cat and I have navy blue furniture and you couldn't even tell that there was a cat in the house. I changed to TOTW for a bit, because Kiwi was...

Hey everybody! Well, I have an update to my run-in with Mitz. I did end up heading in to the ER and they took me right away. My leg was black and blue and just nasty looking, and swelling fast. I had also spiked a high fever. I was put on an IV of high-dose antibiotics because the wounds had...

hehehe this thread is funny! Kiwi HAS to be in the bathroom when I shower. She lays on the bath mat waiting for me. As soon as I set a foot out of the shower she rubs all over my legs and feet. Its like she is thinking "you don't smell like me anymore... here let me fix that" She also likes to...

Kiwi eats Before Grain chicken, mixed 50-50 with Performatrin Ultra lamb & brown rice. Both are dry, because she absolutely will not eat wet food. She will also only drink water out of a glass... (but that is a whole other story) I use these foods because I like their ingredients, they fit my...

Thank you everyone for the input. I would hate to see Mitz put down. I already feel guilty enough that I soaked him with the hose. I know that he has no vaccinations. He turned up one day in my neighbours yard, teeny-tiny, and starving. He is definately under 6 months old.... He may even be...

Hey everyone. I am really upset right now, and I am hoping that this is the right place to talk about this. I am currently taking care of my neighbours house while they are away on vacation. (watering plants, taking care of the pool, etc.) And they have a stray kitten that lives in their...

My little Kiwi is a siamese mix, and she definately has a fiery side. I don't however think this has anything to do with her being half siamese. We all have our distinct personalities regardless of our race, I would assume the same is true for our pets.

I have no idea if this would work in your situation or not, but this is what I did, since Kiwi is only 5 months old... About a month ago I bought an aritficial pine garland (.97 cents at WM) and wrapped it around the pillar in our front entrance. I hung plastic and wooden ornaments in it, and...

After obsessing over what to feed my own kitten, I have come to realize that the best food is the one you feel comfortable feeding, and your cat feels comfortable eating. There are as many opinions on cat food as there are people who have cats to feed. I agree with the other posters, that you...

My sister's cat was declawed 2 years ago, at the same time that he was neutered. She was lead to believe that the two procedures went together by a "you want fries with that?" vet. When she booked the apt. for his neuter she was asked "You want a declaw with that?" Being ill informed, and...

What a difficult decision you had to make. Let your memories of your precious kitty comfort you during this difficult time, and may Snowball rest in peace.

I am so sorry that you have to go through this. I know exactly how you feel, and how terrifying it is to watch your baby have seizures. Kiwi went into convulsions after having an allergic reaction to the anastetic they used for her spay surgery. I have never been so terrified in my life...

Poor thing. That is terrible. I can only imagine how you are feeling. I hope that your sweet kitty is recovering well, and that he isn't in too much pain. Sending thoughts and prayers that the surgery goes smoothly as well.
