Wow, metronidazol? that's a pretty harsh one!! my doctor prescribed that to me when I had a gut infection. The doctor I was dating at the time told me it basically 'wipes you out', restarting your system of sorts (bacteria speaking)... and advised me to take a pro-biotic, since all the...

a couple chunks of beef liver, beef heart, chicken thigh w/ bone, mixed in egg yolk & a couple sardines... He's turned into a grazer lately (after I accidentally left food out a little too long one night, perhaps also due to the sudden heat) and now he doesn't eat as much as he did in one...

GOOD INFO TO KNOW..... thanks for sharing.

Please read: http://lauracaroon.blogspot.com/2008...ets-toxic.html This isn't just "some blog online"; look up the chemicals yourself. They really are quite dangerous, and cat's are so sensitive. I would NEVER let my cat play with a dryer sheet, used or not (but I don't keep them in my home...

LOL!! Every day I wake up to my cat's face in my face, meowing, purring, and even touching me in the face with a soft paw. I can tell when my cat is just solicting for attention & when he's hungry - he meows when hungry, and purrs and cuddles when he just wants a pet.... I just get up and...

- One that understands the needs of my cat, not the desires of his/her bank account. Too many vets where I live try to give any little test, pill, or shot - even if it's totally unecessary, simply to get more money out of you. I think it's a real scam. Vet bills are high enough just for the...

If you're asking me -- I follow the recipe on catnutrition.org (and the slight variant by Dr. Pierson on catinfo.org) .... both use Taurine, Vitamin E, and Vitamin B complex supplements... I also opt for a bit of whole fish vs. fish oil... and I do not grind the food to a bloody pulp, as my cat...

I can't believe I'm reading this............ Dryer sheets and bleach??? Don't let your cat play with these things; they're toxic.... not toys....

FYI, I *do* find live mice, rats, chicks (in the spring), and crickets in my local pet store aisle. And many feed their cats "whole prey" not just "whole prey model".... Raw chicken is still a hell of a lot closer to what's natural than dehydrated meat-cereal pellets!

I feed my cat 100% raw - chicken thigh, wing, beef liver, beef heart, egg yolk & bones... occasionally a sardine (no salt, spring water) ... When he did eat commercial food, I fed him Wellness canned and Natural Balance canned.... When I adopted him, he was eating Friskies & 9-lives canned...

This is not criticism, so much as it is teaching the natural diet of a cat. Live and learn.

It is an improper diet for a cat. In nature, cats eat wet raw meat and bones that contain plenty of moisture. This is what they are designed to eat and what they have eaten for centuries. Cats are not designed to eat dried pellets of food (often containing grain, which cats don't need) --...

Corn. Corn is a very popular allergen among cats - along with soy, wheat (gluten), and fish. Other common allergens include any grain (any - including rice, barley, oat), beef, and venison. My cat doesn't have any of the above allergies (none that I know of), but I always stay away from...

It varies depending on what you feed your cat, the age of your cat, and how much water and food your cat consumes.... My cat eats 100% raw, 6-8 oz a day, and poops once every other day. (Very little solid waste with no odor -- this is normal for raw fed cats.) He urinates anywhere between...

I would not put that much weight into what the employee at the pet store said. On the other hand, I would put a lot of weight into what a trusted vet says. I would put a lot of weight into articles upon articles that point to wet food. I would put a lot of weight into the fact that in the...

I don't recommend dry food for cats. Read this article about Wet Food vs. Dry Food: http://www.littlebigcat.com/?action=...needcannedfood Consider this online resource that compares and "rates" common pet food brands: http://www.petfoodratings.net (note: I don't always agree with the way...

It did, actually! If only emotionally, which is still an improvement! (I advocate holistic health in my house...) Please share the link if you can, I can't seem to find it at the moment.

I knew a cat named "Asshole".

Maybe to an irresponsible pet owner, pets are seen as a "hobby". But any responsible owner knows they are people, not "hobbies".

I have not been feeling well lately (caught a summer cold!) and have been recovering. Today I was taking a little nap, when I was awoken by my cat who came to check if everything was all right ("Owner is not normally in bed at 3 pm! Must investigate!") - he purred and kneaded me softly, and...
