1996 was like yesterday.
Anyways, as we all know we are in for a NOISY summer.
Lucky I live in Baltimore City where I pray they don't come (the stink bugs epic for our region are not in the city).
However I can harvest these suckers and bring em home (already got palmetto bugs straying in the...
Ok so it's summertime in Baltimore city, last year due to warm weather, we had so many "Palmetto" bugs, the cliche cockroach from the movies cover our streets.
1- If you know about roaches, almost all species but the german/brown cockroach can only survive inside, so they come in my basement...
Ok I will start off that I and you should be well versed in at least Fipronil (frontline).
I had tried revolution on my other cats, but something creeped me out aboutg it and i stuck with frontline.
I now have two new kittens, well they are not new, they are about 8-9 months now, 8 and 10 lbs...
This proposition is tailored to my specific scenario.
I feed ground diet (95% from Hare-Today, and grind at home in future). I also give drumsticks and necks as treats daily.
My kittens will eat rabbit almost every time, only rejecting if they are not hungry,.
I feed it every other day and...
Three goals I am trying to achieve, and looking for the solution, I think its fat liquified and poured over raw meal.
Let me premise this by conceding that I know with a rotating diet, I could probably fit the fat in naturally.
Here are my three reasons I think adding fat would benefit my...
So today was sitting here thinking of the holiday next week, thinking of my kitties training to gnaw on some chicken necks I ordered them.
In between posts on chicken wing feeding by Laurie, and thoughts of how turkey necks are "too big" for cats, and chicken necks or too small for dogs, I...
Look, I know places will do it earlier.
My hospital has a 16 week rule, of course I could lie to them.
My breeder said 18 weeks (taking you right to the line of early heat).
I want to do it next friday for selfish reasons, its the day after thanksgiving, i dont work and would have all weekend...
Ok, I know all about Hepatic Lipidosis.
Here is what happened.
I have two kittens, about 15 weeks old now.
They came to me on a raw and wet diet. My other cat of 12 years is wet only. We would do two meals a day and everything worked out.
I work all day and usually dont get home till 7-8...
Edit: this assumes at the least ground raw, and in my case commercial raw.
I like the idea of getting burgerstyle or chubs of raw, however you got to defrost, chop it up into portions then refreeze.
The most popular is to place portion in ziplock.
Although i have plenty of ziplock at home, I...
I know this prob belongs in another section of the forum, but here goes.
I am looking for, if it exists the best quality in terms of safety and function for baby cats.
They just came last night, and even though they are scared to death of me, if I stay still they start fighting.
They freaked...
I read on Hare Today that it is ok to thaw meat and refreeze it.
They recommended placing food into ice tray, then use convenient cubes.
I cant find on any commercial raw site, or here any evidence that it is recommended.
I want to use radcat, or other brands chubs, but there is no way these...
Let me preface that while I am getting two kittens in 3 weeks, one boy, and one girl, that I have owned cats my whole life and have been ever so paranoid since this night years ago when I was at a friends and we saw little bloody drops on the blanket his siamese cat sat in.
IWe rushed her to ER...
I am about to purchase two new bengals.
My TICA registered breeder has had three liters recently One fathered by a large brown spotted bengal (netted 3 babies) and the other 2 queens bred with a visiting champion spotted snow (both resulting in 7 babies each).
I have read that low litters are...
As some have seen in another thread, I am struggling with a kitty subcoming to mitral valve stenosis.
I have been advised by my family and close friends to bring another baby/boss into my life.
I don't want to be "sexist" or cast aspersions that would lead to folks considering one sex over...
Question: I know this is a subjective question and can all depend on the competency of the breeders (I am a Bengal owner) to remove bad genes from the gene pool.
If anyone thinks this belongs in breeder forum, let me know.
My background and situation:
I rescued my white mink Bengal...
So my cat's favorite food is Nature's Variety 95% canned varieties. (Chicken, Lamb, and rabbit)
My local store carries NV on hand, as well as regular Evo Cans.
What they don't carry is the Evo 95% can varieties.
Now they can get it for me, but I must buy a case at a time.
So my question...
Alot of good people on this site vouched for this woman and her "shelter".
I would like not to pass judgement since I am not a cop, lawyer, or run a cat rescue but this AP article quotes one of her voulenteers who was the informant to the SPCA that she ran a "slow-kill" shelter and alludes to...
