    Feeding a cat only Radcat Turkey and nothing else?

    Thank you all for your further advice! I'm going to look into both the probiotics and the freeze dried toppers. Would bonito flakes be ok? He loves those, though I've also heard fish is bad for IBD cats. Several years ago he had an endoscopy and biopsy done but only of the esophagus/stomach. I...

    And also, glad I'm not the only one out there who feels like a chef struggling to keep up with the tastes of gourmand diners. :)

    Feeding a cat only Radcat Turkey and nothing else?

    Thanks for your response! To answer your question, yes, we did try steroids, but they did absolutely nothing. I may try reintroducing some of the other Radcat proteins in tiny amounts. The chicken seems to be really bad for him. I might try giving him a tablespoon of lamb here and there. Yes...

    Feeding a cat only Radcat Turkey and nothing else?

    Should I swap out shelters when it's dangerously cold out?

    Thanks, ShadowsRescue and kitty chick--the cooler actually arrived early so I was able to get the new shelter set up during the day today. I put it next to her current shelter (separated by some wood) so hopefully she will use it, or at the least not be frightened away from her old shelter by...

    Should I swap out shelters when it's dangerously cold out?

    Hello all, I’m a new member, and am hoping to get your guidance. There’s a sweet little gray feral cat we’ve been feeding for over a year, and right now she’s sleeping in a very makeshift shelter I’ve made for her in a sheltered area by our garage. It’s basically a cardboard box with straw in...
