If you aren't terribly attached to him, I would find him a home in the country. If you can't bear to part with him, get him a friend - make sure its the opposite sex and give them several weeks to warm up to each other.
Thank you for your tips. The 18 Awesome Cat Feeding Tips were insightful! My first attempt to slow him down will be spreading the food on a plate so he will be forced to lick it rather than gulp it.
I have seven cats. Two of them eat anything and everything. One is so crazy hungry all the time, he is like a wild cat at feeding time. I de-worm them from time to time and have done so recently but no changes in him - I feed him in a different room - away from the others. If I pick him and...
I see the last post on cats with IBS was almost 2 years ago. I would like to add my experiences. I have 7 cats and last year my husband brought home some Kirkland brand dry cat food (Kirkland is the Canadian Costco brand - I am not sure if it is the same in the U.S.). After a few weeks, the...
I am not sure who made it because I opened the large bag and dumped it into a rubbermaid bin. I just know it was Kirkland brand - it was the first time we ever bought that make and expected it to be better quality than Friskies or Whiskas.
I don't think Kirkland brand cat and dog food has always had this problem. It seems to be this the most recent manufacturing of the food - perhaps a new component (ground glass? LOL). Hopefully, they will fix the problem or get a new suppier.
I think my cats are getting better now. 3 of...
Everybody must read this article and pass on the information. I have 7 cats. They eat canned food for breakfast and are served dry food for the rest of the day. My husband picked up Kirkland brand dry cat food last month. Soon after the diarrhea started. I suspected the new food but did not act...

Thank you for mentioning that the medication is not expensive - I will give it some thought - I have 9 animals - I will definitely go to the vet if an animal is in pain, or has something that can be remedied.
I wonder if there is a supplement I could feed to one of my very old cats which would make him absorb more nutrients from the food he eats. He is always hungry and although I feed him, alot, (canned cat food, tuna, canned chicken and dry food), he seems to not be putting on weight. He has gone...
Thanks for your tips. He is free to go out whenever he wants for as long as he wants. But maybe he does want more attention. BTW right after I wrote that note to you, I turned around and his face was in my salad bowl. Yes, he eats my food and drinks my tea whenever he can. Sometimes his...
Its rare that I hit my cat....please don't assume that I beat them I understand what you are saying but also maybe the cat connects his behaviour with the whack.
Although I understand that physical punishment is not looked upon favourably, when my cat is a bully and I whack him when he attacks one of my other cats. Then he slinks off - he knows his actions were not welcome. We can talk to children but I am not sure we can talk to cats. I don't think...
