She seems to be better now, vet said if she did have a UTI the antibiotics seemed to have cleared it up. I have steam cleaned the stairs twice now with a product called "OUT" that supposedly contains enzymes and bacteria to get rid of the urine smell, I also sprayed the stairs with Feliway and...
Thanks for the input... my regular vet was not in the office today but we talked on the phone. She looked over the report that the emergency vet sent her and she seems to think it could just be stress. There was a strange male cat hanging around the back yard around the time that this started...
I have three cats the youngest of whom is just over a year old. She has all of a sudden starting peeing (and sometimes pooping) on the stairs in my house. I took her to an emergency vet clinic because we were leaving for Maui for ten days and wanted to make sure nothing was wrong before we...
Anyone have any experience/comments with this food? I have three cats one of whom is diabetic and I have been struggling with finding a canned food they would all eat without sprinkled freeze dried salmon treats all over. Came across this on Amazon the other day and they all seem to love it...
Thanks Swabby, so were you home testing before you went off the insulin? And the main thing that is driving me crazy right now is the 6-8 oz per day... I have three and I cannot get any of them to eat that much. I am sure it is because they are used to grazing on dry food all day. I don't...
Wow! Thank you so much! That is so informative! I had been reading other sites on how to calculate carbs but for some reason the way that site explained it, it just clicked. I printed out the food list and the sheet on how to calculate carbs and will take it with me to the pet store. But it...
Thanks for info!! I have been on that site before, very informative... although I didn't see a specific list of foods anywhere. I mostly have been going off the Janet & Binky's food chart. I was trying to find something that came in a 5 oz. can since it is easier (and cheaper) to split three...
Oh I have a good relationship with my vet... we have already been back twice to check her glucose levels and have reduced her insulin from 2 units twice a day to 1 unit twice a day. She said the main goal is to get her on a wet food that she will eat enough of (not just pick at) so I was just...
Hi there! I have a newly diagnosed (about a month ago) 12 yo cat... she is currently on 1 unit of insulin twice a day. I have not gotten into the home testing yet... have a follow-up appointment on the 23rd at which I will discuss that. Anyway I have spent the last month reading all the...
Sorry haven't been on here for a while... thank you so much for all the replies. So far the dry Natural Balance Green Pea and Chicken seems to be a hit with all three of my cats so that was fairly easy. The canned so far - the Natural Balance chicken and liver, the Soulistic chicken, the Fancy...
OK... so I just had Bella in for her shots and to get spayed, I also thought she had ear mites but the vet said it was definitely not mites and she suspected a food allergy. She said the most common ones were beef and fish and suggested to start with eliminating fish. After hours of reading...
Browsing the aisles at Target this evening I came across a bag of Petguard dry cat food. The ingredients look pretty good... anyone have any opinions or experience?? Thanks
So, as I said it seems both the kitten and oldest are enjoying the Innova. I am so torn because the Nutro Max senior seems to have the lowest phos .5% and the canned Nutro Max kitten says only .19% phos?? so ideally that sounds great but after googling Nutro it just makes me so scared!! I am...
Thanks for the input... what is the other food you're feeding? I also have two other cats one is 6 yo and the other is just about 4 months old so I am trying to find something to satisfy all of them. I feed them canned food am and pm but I have to have them on some dry due to the fact that we...
Ok I have had too much time on my hands recently and have been researching dry cat foods. I am trying to find one with low phosphorous due to the fact that I think my oldest cat might have the beginning stages of CRF (increased drinking, large pee clumps). I have an appt to have her checked but...
So you still trust Nutro after all the recent recalls? The two older ones ate Nutro Max Salmon formula years ago before all the recalls and formula changes. At this point I am about ready to give in and let them go back to their beloved Purina Naturals and Pro-Plan Selects.
