Ok.. so I just read through this entire thread. Woah. Poor Artie. I wish you both luck and sanity. Cats can sure pick up when we are stressed 128553. The only advice I have for you and Artie is to live in the moment. Good luck you two; good vibes sent your way

Hi Maggie! Sorry I haven't been on here for a while. I'm actually a dental assistant and dry food for cats is like humans eating potato chips and saying the bits help clean our teeth. It's a lie. Brushing is excellent if you can manage it! Cats suffer mostly from periodontal disease and not...

I personally feed red barn foods because they are high protein and low phosphorous and also natures logic which contains no added synthetic minerals or materials. My cat, Bear suffers from cystitis and so I feed primarily wet food only! I have to admit that my fur-babies do get a snack of dry...

Keep your eye on her. Cats hide their illnesses. Make sure she is eating and drinking normally and that she is still playing and the sleeping too much. If all of the above checks out.. maybe she just felt a little lonely. We get like that sometimes too. But be aware that any change in behavior...

Absolutely beautiful!!!

I've heard great things about that diet dissolving the struvite stones. Was she only a wet only diet before this episode? I'm only asking because I've heard that if cats are Feds only high quality wet that they aren't as likely to get the struvite stones. I switched all of mine over and am...

Oh no! When I read your first entry I thought, "how do they know it's not kidney stones?" Good for you for insisting on that X-ray. Some vets can be so obtuse and go strictly by what the "books" say and not by the individual cat. My boy had a UTI and never ran a culture and sensitivity because...

My cat Chooch had an upper respiratory infection and every now and then his meow gets a little raspy and then it goes back to normal. This could be for months. I really don't think you have anything to be worried about. Much love to you and your baby.

I wonder why that is... That we can switch wet foods, brands and proteins without a problem yet dry food causes a wide variety of problems with digestive upset. I've noticed that I can't switch dry foods unless very very very slowly!!

I switch my cats food all the time! Not dry... Just wet. I stick with the same dry (but they only get nibbles as treats). I use "I and love and you", "nutro", "nutro-max" (for my kitties who can tolerate grains), "natures variety Pride"... And well, that's all they seem to like at the moment. I...

I started to feed my babies the NV pride Rockstar Rabbit. It is shredded and grain free. They seem to like it and it is not a pate. They will also eat pate Nutro duck flavor. I started to add a probiotic to their food and the constipation is all gone. Normal bowel movements. I don't count the...

That's just excellent news!!! I love hearing hen everything works out!!!

Dry food stayed down. Wysong uretic food. VERY expensive and cannot get local. I only had a small sample bag. So I had to go out and buy Blue Buffalo indoor which she tolerates very well. She only ate a couple mouthfuls but I bet her tummy is still so upset from me feeding her the soy, corn, and...

Well, last time I brought her in for this they just gave me reglan. But I can't remember what she was eating then. I understand you are worried for my baby, but please trust that I am keeping a very close eye on her and will call the vet tomorrow if she is not yet well. I will make sure that if...
