    What's the deal with meal?

    Can I just point out something about the "4D" thing...I hope the animals are dead before they're put into kibble! Otherwise I think we have a much bigger problem on our hands than the parts of the animals being used. And unless you're going with a super crappy product, you're going to have...

    What's the deal with meal?

    Necks are actually a good source of RMB. (And great for cleaning teeth! ) Feet on the other hand I'd consider more of a dental treatment or a treat rather than "nutritious" but if it's mixed with plenty of MM there is no real harm in feeding it. Of course, those are in raw/whole form. But I...

    What's the deal with meal?

    There is a difference in "chicken meal" and "chicken BY-PRODUCT meal". Both are dehydrated versions of either "chicken" or "chicken by-product". So basically "meal" just means that it's dehydrated before cooking whereas if it just says "chicken" (or deboned chicken in the case of BB) then once...

    New cat food at Petsmart

    ......You do realize you have an obligate carnivore right??? If you DO realize that, I don't think you understand what it means. To put it simply, your cat needs nothing but muscle meat, organ meat and bones in their diet to survive. They in no way require grains in their food, no more than they...

    what type of food should i feed my lil kitty?

    My computer wont play videos very well but I'll comment on what I read from that page. First, the thing about the chicken being first. If it's listed "chicken" (or beef, venison, turkey, duck, ect ect) then that is indeed a true statement that the ingredients will fall once they're cooked and...

    what type of food should i feed my lil kitty?

    People who praise Nutro and act like I'm wrong for saying bad things about it? Maybe not you specifically but there was someone else who made a comment about my choice of feelings towards the food. And I think it's great your Border lived 19 years, my boss' BC did on Iams/Eukanuba (Who also...

    what type of food should i feed my lil kitty?

    Ok, let me explain a little more about my beef with Nutro. 1. My problems were NOT during the 2007 recall or during a recall at all. It was at the end of 2009. This was NOT just "my" problem. I had real life and internet friends going through the same thing at the same time. Add in the comments...

    Soft Food

    I don't have any suggestions about brands or know of any cat foods like it but Moist & Meaty for dogs is a crappy product. It's full of poor quality food ingredients and chemical ingredients to hold it together and give it that chewy consistency. I can't imagine it'd be any better as a cat food...

    New Kitten Owner Here! :)

    Well, I have some news. I decided to get a different kitten from the litter. I brought Chance over to introduce the kittens to him and my original pick wanted nothing to do with him. She was the only one of the litter who just hid and hissed the whole time. Go figure. So I picked out a little...

    what type of food should i feed my lil kitty?

    I just want to throw out an opinion from someone who is NOT paid to advertise Nutro... Personally I feel it's toxic waste and wouldn't feed it to my worst enemies pet. I wouldn't feed it to a starving stray on the street even. While my experience isn't their cat food, Nutro nearly killed my...

    New Kitten Owner Here! :)

    Thank you guys for the warm welcome! As for my dogs and cats, Zoey was actually raised with cats and for many years we are convinced thought she WAS a cat. She wanted nothing to do with dogs but spent many days laying in the sun with our neighbors cat Thomas, grooming and playing with each...

    On the supplements, how much fish oil and do you not need to supplement with vitamin E to replace what is depleted in order for the body to process the fish oils? Also, does anyone here feed their cats tripe?

    Vaccines & Spaying

    What is the typical vaccine routine for kittens? When should they get their first set and what kind? How many sets do they need? Do cats need a booster at a year old or are they good after the kitten series? After their basic shots I plan to do the rabies every 3 years. I'm not a fan of today's...

    Some Questions About Going RAW

    Ok, I'm no stranger to RAW when it comes to dogs but I've never done it with a cat. So a couple questions...I'm getting a kitten, she'll be around 8-12 weeks when I bring her home depending on when we get the apartment. Puppies in general, but more specifically large breed puppies have very...

    New Kitten Owner Here! :)

    Hi, I'm Ciegy, 19 and just moved to North Carolina. I'm typically a dog person but I'll soon be getting a new kitten who's name is Ke$ha. (Keh-Sha) She's a little Moggy/DLH tabby with white socks and currently about 3-3.5 weeks old. (Not sure on the exact birth date) This isn't my first cat but...
