    Declawed Cat Keeps His Paws Up

    I found out what declawing really was when I was a teenager. So when I got MY second cat, I refused to let him be declawed. I did the Soft Paws glue on things. I think ed they messed up his claw shedding on a couple toes, and I had to help clip them well after I was done using them... but they...

    Thank you so much for the suggestion of steering clear of gravy foods for sensitive kitties. I have been trying various brands of canned food, and the only one Pierre has thrown up was a can of Weruva shredded chicken in gravy. Everything else has been pate and he's had no difficulty. Here I...

    Declawed Cat Keeps His Paws Up

    Thanks so much for the advice. Seeing as he doesn't seem to be acting in pain, I will make sure to keep it on a list for the next time he goes to the vet. I actually didn't even realize he was declawed when I adopted him. I had my eye on a cute siamese, but Mr. Reese had his eye on me. I walked...

    Declawed Cat Keeps His Paws Up

    Hey everybody, I wasn't sure which forum to post this in. I hope I made the right choice... not sure if it's a health issue or a behavior issue. I recently adopted a kitty from the shelter who was declawed, his name is Mr. Reese. I have noticed that he has a tendency to sit and hold one of his...

    Thanks everyone so far. There will probably always be a little dry food in their diet. We frequently do overnight trips and they'll need food for those times, but all of these kitties will pick wet over dry if given the choice, if I offer a flavor they like (and 2 of them will eat basically...

    I've been scouring chewy.com and never saw this particular food. I will definitely have to investigate this and see if Mattie might be interested. The other 3 are interested in almost everything so the tough thing will be finding what she likes.

    Hello everyone, I am hoping you all can help me out with some food recommendations/transitioning. I have a four cat household and right now all of them eat Royal Canin SO. They used to eat it after my cat Angus got a total bladder blockage. Eventually I transitioned them over to Nutro because...

    Carpal Hyperextension and Dieting

    After a week of steroids there is no change in the condition of her wrists. She is due for a recheck any day, and I guess we will probably be referred to someone. She hasn't had it easy - she's had teeth removed, she's had surgery to remove bladder crystals, and I'm still trying to help our new...

    Carpal Hyperextension and Dieting

    Hello everyone, I've got a couple questions after my most recent visit to the vet today. I took my girl Mattie, who's about 10, to the vet after nothing last night that her front feet looked funny. Instead of walking on her pads, she is bending at the wrist, very flat footed. She's eating...

    Fostering Abandoned Kitten -- Won't Stop Eating

    I ended up taking her to the vet. It was my last day at my sister's before heading home, and things had gotten worse. I was concerned about her being impacted. Vet gave her an enema and some laxative to take home. Took about 2 hours and then boy did she go! After that, she stopped fighting us...

    Fostering Abandoned Kitten -- Won't Stop Eating

    Hello everyone. We found an abandoned kitty a few weeks ago and have been caring for her. She's over a pound now, playful, trying to pounce and play. We are starting to run into some problems though. We have had hard poop from her pretty much since the beginning, despite adding a few drops of...

    Fostering Abandoned Kitten -- Won't Stop Eating

    Thanks so much for all this advice everyone. We think she must be trying to make up for lost time, because today she weighed 12.3 ounces. The olive oil in the milk definitely helped her along too, but we're going to have to keep doing it because she's definitely constipated. I hope once she...
