    High Protein Diet Issues

    Just a thought~~ Lots of people are going to be switching over to the cat foods recommended recently, most of which are premium foods, high in animal protiens, and then some which are grain free entirely. My only concern is those cats who have kidney issues,(I assume those would already be...

    Mortality/Morbidity Stats?

    I agree that all the $#@&*!! glutens (*hating* that word) must be tested now, no matter if the prior food was deemed 'safe'.

    The litter boxes, that is. The litter threads got me thinking so I started a new thread. I have always had @3 clustered in one quiet spot, then another one or 2 in different spot. We have moved so much that I credit my cats for such awesome adjustments; never has there been litter box...

    Possible Positive

    I had this in the fact thread but it fits better in its own thread. This is more a general comment about what is transpiring in this cat food debacle. This is awful, no doubt.
