My poor little baby passed away at home, on my lap on April 12. I had posts about her the past few weeks. She had lost her appetite and stopped eating on her own. Had taken her to the vet and they did blood work, told me it looked like she was near stage 3 kidney failure. I couldn’t get her to...

I have a cat that hasn’t been eating at all so I started feeding her using a dropper but now her face and paws are dirty and I don’t know what I could use to clean her. I’ve been trying with just warm water and a wash cloth but it’s not working…
any ideas what I could use that won’t harm her...
Fyi
i’m not sure where I can post this but this morning I received an email from supposedly what somebody posted on the Cat’s site but I was kind of worried whether I should click on it to open it because I wasn’t sure if it was a legitimate post. I tried doing a search by the person that posted...
Has anyone had a recent issue with Friskies can beef prime filets cat food? I had ordered 2 cases (24 cans each) in Novembe, 23161161 L2456 2259 and when I opened the cans they didn’t look normal, they were darker in color and my cats wouldn’t eat it…was there any recalls or changes in the...
I have a 18 year old cat who I can’t get to eat. I’ve opened several different cans, which she has eaten in the past. Even tried the baby food, which in the past when she’s lost her appetite has nudged into eating again but she’s not interested in that now. I have no problem with her...
I have a bully cat who has stressed out one of my other cats so she ends up peeing in other places other than the litter box. I wanted to give her something to help calm her down a bit and the other day I was in Petsmart and I saw a jar of calming bites by zesty paws and I’m wondering how safe...
A while ago someone posted a site that act showed the texture of some can cat food but I’m not able to find it. Does anyone know where it’s poste? I’m going to see if I could find a different brand other than Friskies but be able to find a texture my cats will eat.

I’m not sure what forum I should post this I but I’m wondering if basil plants are bad for cats if they eat them..I have some basil plants outside (in pots) and I’m wondering if it would be safe if I brought them in as a house plant. Although maybe the cats won’t even like the smell and keep...
I have a question for anyone who can help….my poor cats are infested with the fleas. I’ve been combing them twice a day. Some days on some cats I can get 3-4 but then the next time around I can get 8-9…anyway there’s one poor cat that had scabs around her neck and she was hiding (still is) but I...

I have a 16 year old cat who is eating but I don’t think she’s going to the bathroom, only peeing. Is there a food I can give her to help? Is pumpkin good? I had a pouch of Stella & Chewys tuna and pumpkin and was wondering if that could help?
I have several cats that use the litter box so...
I have a 16 year old cat who has recently started eating more, I have to feed her every few hours
and sometimes more often. A few months ago she started to meow quite loud but it was not often. The past week or so she does it more often thru out the day and sometimes I hear her during the...
someone had posted a sight that listed brands of cat food and broke down the ingredients and nutrition but I can’t find it again…it’s not the catfooddb one or Tanya’s chart.
I’ve been searching for a good dry food for over weight cats but when I check the ingredients they all have soy or corn or flaxseed, things that aren’t good for cats, some even had a high rate of carbs..
Has anyone found and using a decent brand? I feed my cats wet food but a lot prefer dry...
