I have 3 cats, all rescues. My one cat Monty had a problem with crystals and needed P-U surgery and then revisional surgery. So far he's doing ok but I can't get him to eat his special Hill's food. The other two cats haven't had any major issues, thank goodness. On the other hand, my sister...

I would consult the vet. Sleep can trigger seizures in suseptible humans, so I guess it's possible a cat with a tendency toward seizures can have one during sleep also.

I've heard about the fish being bad for struvite crystals but that is the ONLY canned food my cat will eat!! I've tried beef, liver, chicken, rabbit, turkey..etc. from the worst to the best and most expensive, he'll smell it and walk away. He'll only eat Fancy Feast Tuna, Salmon and...

Hi, My cat Monty is 7 and three years ago he had the P-u surgery for blockage due to struvite crystals. I had him on the vet recommended food (can't remember what it was now) but Monty quickly got tired of it and refused to eat it. He is now eating the regular commercial food either Purina One...

Hi, I am having the same problems with my 7 yr old Monty. He is vomiting every other day and I'm finding wads of fur in there. I'm starting to wonder if some of the fur is his or maybe the other two cats we have??? hmmmm I have the cats on Purina One indoor formula. The oldest one throws up...

One of my cats is going to eat himself into an early grave if I don't stop his eating behavior right now! "Harley" is approx. 2 years old, a neutered male, who was a feral up until last year when I rescued him and brought him home to my other 2 cats. My other two cats are normal weight. I leave...

First of all I have 3 socialized ferals but the first two were caught as kittens. The last one I have is a 2 year old who's name is Harley. He's been home with me since Oct. '06. He's very friendly to me and my DH and has turned out to be a lap cat, except I think he still yearns for the great...

She appears to fine so far. Eating and drinking ok, no unusual lethargy. I think she threw up any leaf part she swallowed. It's been 16 hrs since its happened. I'm giving away the plant to someone who doesn't have cats.

I've been doing some container gardening on my terrace. One of my cats, Zena wanted to go out and smell the flowers and found the day lily to her liking, thinking it looked like cat grass. I caught her taking a chomp out of it and got her away from it. I brought her back into the house where she...

Hello. I live in Chicago. There is a house nearby (rather run down) the residents have a cat, he's a male, not neutered and I doubt he has any vaccinations. They are letting this cat out a lot now (its warm weather now) I've seen him stalk birds and he almost got hit by a car the other day...

There is also another brand, Sheba, which is quite expensive. The main ingrediants in Sheba are meat/chicken/fish. This is virtually people quality food. Their products do not contain wheat or corn gluten but tapioca for thickening. I've bought a couple cans of Sheba for my cats and the food...

I just checked with my vet a few minutes ago. As of right now Friday April 6, Fancy Feast canned is not on the banned list of pet foods.

I have 3 cats and have always fed them a combination of Fancy Feast canned and Max dry cat food. Sometimes I feed them Fancy Feast dry cat food. I do not see these items on the banned list even though Max is made by Nutro I believe. However lately I'm noticing my oldest cat Zena (she's 13) is...

Good question. I didn't ask him because I figured that is part of a normal exam. I think he figured the Revolution would do the job.?

He had the Revolution application from the vet the first time. Then following that I applied Frontline last 2 times. I don't see any fleas anymore. Just earmites. I'm sure its earmites. What else would look like coffee grounds? BTW, we don't let Harley or any of the other cats out.

Harley's ears are full of brown/black icky wax I've diagnosed as ear mites. I've used 3 treatments of an OTC product called Four Paws ear mite remedy but still the black/brown stuff keeps coming up and he's scratching and shaking his head every day. I also have 2 other cats and the oldest girl...

I posted a while back with behavior problems. I'm not sure it's improving...maybe. My cat Monty (neutered male 5 yrs) and the new cat (Harley- approx. 2 yrs neutered male still don't get along. It's mainly Monty who comes in Harley's room and stalks Harley - who backs off into a corner. Monty...

Hmm...come to think of it, I recently did add the Arm & Hammer baking soda cat litter freshener to his litter...maybe he's allergic to the perfume??? I'm starting to add the omega 3 & 6 fish oils to his food...but he hates the smell!

This is an area I know something about. About 1-1/2 years ago my neutered male cat had this problem. The crystals were struvite. I had him catherized because he couldn't pee and we put him on the SO food but he re-blocked again quickly. I could go and have him catherized over again or have a...

No, we use disposable paper bowls here for the cats ( I hate dish washing)
