Our cat Lucifer has slept with us since we brought him home. He is 6 months old, very spoiled, and loves cuddles. However, I will be having our newborn son in roughly a month, possibly the next few weeks! We set up his bassinet yesterday and Lucifer has taken a liking to it. My SO and I have...

My cat Lucifer has in the past few weeks, for some odd reason, started crying around the house once the sun goes down. Usually only for a couple hours, and never any other time but dark. We have yet to get him fixed but plan to quite soon, I have read that they might do this because of reaching...

My kitten Lucifer, is about 14 weeks old. Yesterday we had a *LOVELY* family member come back from being at work for months; he's a drunk, awnry, asshole and since he's been here acts like he runs the place, complains non stop and so forth. Just ~LOVELY~. I've noticed today since he's been out...

http://catinfo.org/docs/CatFoodProteinFatCarbPhosphorusChart.pdf This link also breaks down protein content by individual brands and each one of their flavors. Helped me a bunch! And Fancy Feast also has paté for Kittens :) good luck!

I'm budgeting on feeding a 3 month old kitten myself; had a couple people on here tell me to try Fancy Feast Classic after I noticed he would get bloated from Friskies paté; friskies contained rice in their pate while Fancy Feasts classic paté line is completely grain free. So far he loves it...

Update: Lucifer is eating normally now, no more pickiness either! Switched him over to Fancy Feast for good now and he's eating on average 3 cans a day. Also not giving him Nutrical anymore, since his appetite is back to normal; thank you prariepanda for that information I did not realize it was...

Believe we have partial success, picked up some Fancy Feast paté from the store and fed Lucifer, he only ate about half the can but no stomach bloat! Hopefully he will finish the rest soon, I feel like he still might be picky about the texture. But the fact that this paté did not cause him to...

I am so sorry to hear this! If the vet chooses not to operate, definitely give her the best quality of life you can! Treats, playtime, plenty of cuddles and what not. I know how hard this can be to find out and understand what is inevitable, and I pray that she stays comfortable and happy as...

Okay, I will have to try out a few different ones and see what he responds to best. Thanks so much!!

Thank you! I was feeding him fancy feast at first but switched to Friskies since it was more food for less per can (49¢/5.5oz versus 65¢/3oz) however I will have to reconsider and pick some up to see if he responds better. Are there any other wet food brands that aren't high in carbs? I also try...

No worries! I recently started giving my kitten a paté type food which made him bloat after eating and as soon as I went back to the filets in gravy it stopped completely. So you never really know! Good luck again! And that is what we are all here for!! :grouphug:

No problem! Here are some links I found that might help as well, plenty of tips and information! Think Like a Cat:Reintroduction Method | Pam Johnson-Bennett Reintroducing Best Friend Cats after 5 days Separation due to Surgery and Recuperation

Is there a middle ground somewhere you could put a baby gate/dog gate up? Like a hallway or doorway? I've seen this work in a few situations, the cats can see and smell each other but there is still a physical separation between the two should something happen. Are either of them fixed or if...

Hello! My 3 month old kitten recently got better after being sick for a few days. I decided to start feeding him the paté wet food (Friskies) for the higher calorie content over the meaty bits in gravy (Friskies as well); he also would eat so fast he would inhale the gravy up his nose so I...

You also may want to post the diet regimen in the Cat Nutrition forums to get better feed back on it! Since you are in the Cat Health forums I can see why many of us are leaning towards a health issue versus a diet issue. Either way it could be anything, but I believe that is where you would get...

And I apologize if I came off a bit brute, after your further explanations I understand why you would be led to believe it is a food issue. I truly hope she feels better! Keep us updated! :)

It could, but the check up would be your best bet. If it is only after certain types of food, it could be the diet. None of us are vets however so that would be the only way you know for sure. So if you end up going I hope she handles the ride well! Mine lays in my lap during car rides as he...

Also the fact that she hunts mice, birds, and other small animals makes it much more likely she could have picked up something from one of her rodents, such as parasites, and no matter what you change in the food it will not affect what she could already have.

First of all, there is not a topical flea medicine that treats ALL worms or intestinal parasites. As someone else said it could be coccidia. Most flea treatments that treat "worms" are referring to heart worms, and that has nothing to do with the multitude of intestinal parasites and worms that...
