I ended up adding bone meal. But now I have a grinder! Boy that thing is awesome. Making the food is super easy! Lana'thel wasn't reacting very well to her diet, so I suspect something in the supplement(s) is not agreeing with her. She now has a new batch of chicken meat, bones, liver, and heart...

Just wanted to update and ask a question. First off, the ground chicken, with liver and heart was such a huge success. I have never seen my cats eat so heartily. I normally have to coax them to eat before I fall asleep from boredom (feeding is always supervised since each cat has their own food...

I really hate to read that you should NEVER give a cat away for free. That is simply not true. My favorite cat was given to me for free by someone on craigslist. In fact, she was so grateful that someone was taking in a 10 year old cat that she gave me a $50 gift card to Petsmart. You should...

I've decided to feed raw. I am fostering a cat with allergies. She has been to numerous vets, all who think it is a food allergy but can't figure out what exactly is causing her itchiness. On our last attempt, she was fed nothing but boiled chicken for two weeks (no reaction). Then we fed her...

Ooooh I love deals! Great shopping there!!

Please try feeding at least twice a day. Average cat probably eats about one can a day... so at the very least, I would put out two cans in the morning (to be split between the 3 cats) and another two cans in the evening. If they're still hungry, increase it to 3 cans at each feeding.

Yeah, that's the impression I got too =\\

Natural Balance has 3 limited ingredients food: Venison/Pea, Salmon/Pea, and Duck/Pea (well, they have a fourth, but it's Chicken/Pea).

My Westley vomits. He used to do it several times a week. Vet initially thought it had to do with the low-quality food I was feeding him (Authority). But after running some tests, she found he had a UTI and gave him antibiotics and put him on urinary food (kibble). He stopped vomiting. The food...

How in the world? Westley will eat chunks of chicken so I gave him a wing the other day and he just licked it. He couldn't figure out how to eat it and eventually gave up. I grabbed it and tried to pull the meat off it... and failed. If I can't manually rip off the meat, how is my cat supposed...

Both my cats HATED the Soulistic duck & chicken as well. They refused to eat a single bite (and they had not eaten in several hours so they had to have been hungry). They ate the Soulistic chicken & lamb though. edit: oops, they ate the Holistic Select chicken & lamb and hated the Holistic...

I think Ducman feels the need to "defend" her cats' diet because she was "attacked" on another post yesterday. If she is allowed to feed her cats what she deems appropriate, then she shouldn't be looked down upon for choosing to feed her cats a mixed diet. I do not like the argument that...

What about getting both cats so they can play with each other and your daughter can pet one or both when they are nice and tired?

I feel you. I hate throwing out uneaten cans of food =( I have recently transitioned over to a (nearly) wet-only diet only to discover that a) I think my cat is allergic to fish and b) he is very picky! It is all a hit or miss, a game of chance. I am buying one can of anything without fish in...

It has garlic powder in it? From what I understand cats should not have any amount of garlic...
