No advice, but I’m worried for your little Mandy. It’s awesome you’ve been to the vet already, but I wonder if this thing is still manifesing. I suggest you keep a journal of events for her - it will help you see patterns more quickly, ask better questions, and the vet can make good use of it too.

Yes, I know a little something about grain-free, but I understand that kitties still need "some" grains to digest properly. Still, most food does, I am still shopping for grain-inclusive, but am more open to learning about grain-free, or lower carp options. I would personally not be interested...

So, I have learned to look at phosphorus & protein levels as criteria. But are the carbohydrate and/or fat levels as important as the number of calories? I have a hunch I have been to calorie focused.

Maybe others will have more ideas about how to bring him in, but to me, he sounds like he's happy outdoors. Not every cat needs to be an indoor kitty, and obviously they can't all be. It sounds like if you're feeding him outdoors, and even taking care of injuries, that that's all the kindness he...

@heatherwillard0614 Oh yes, she was stretching, but also showing us how "big" she could be, I think. Such a sweetie, she was.

I did not zoom in or crop this photo. Sophie was really this close to me when I took this photo. I believe her message was: Mom, when ARE you going to wake up? *this is our kitty, Sophie, who passed away in October of last year.

I'll reach into the past a bit and show you one of my favorite pictures of kitten-Sophie. This was in 2007, when she was just brand new to our family.
