My cat, Saffron, is the sweetest and friendliest cat I've ever had or ever known. She's the type of cat that is right there at the front door when you come home, or whenever someone comes over. She's always talking, always involved, and super affectionate to anyone. I've had her since she was 11...

Hey guys. I have had this problem for a while, but I'm finally getting myself to post about it. I have a single 1.5 year old cat, Saffron. She is the friendliest and sweetest cat I've ever known, but she has one problem -- too much talking! She meows nearly constantly: when I get up in the...

I just had the pleasure of walking into the bathroom and smelly fresh, NASTY poop! I was wondering if there's any reason why whole prey would cause poop that is just as disgusting and smelly as kibble/canned food? Saffron's poop was exactly as you expect on a raw diet -- small, dry...

I was wondering: what is the limit on feeding eggs/egg yolks? I've always seen people say they give one or two a week, but I was wondering if there's harm when feeding more? And what if there's a variety -- like chicken, duck, and quail -- can you feed them more often? Saffron enjoys egg yolk...

Whenever I would think about pets chewing cords or electronics, I always thought about my bunny or hamsters or something. Never cats. I knew they can, but I had never experienced it. Well, Saffron is a chewer.  I really need some tips. She isn't into most of the toys that I get her. She LOVES...

Hi everyone! I'd like to introduce my new girl, Saffron. She is a gorgeous 11-month-old tortoiseshell with beautiful, golden eyes. She's such a friendly and personable cat. I have never had a cat that's so talkative and just wants to be involved in everything, no matter what it is or who...

Hello TCS! I hope everyone is doing well.   I am so thrilled as of lately that I absolutely need to share my story with you all! I recently adopted a 10-month old kitten, Saffron. She was a skinny little tortoiseshell that I saw on the website of my local shelter. I had been going in about once...

Hi there. I found this kitten that's up for adoption that's really cute, but I noticed that he has this special need. This is quoted from the listing: "He was bottle fed since a few days old by a vet tech at a local vet clinic so is a total love with people, dogs and other cats. He struggled...

What's the best flea prevention out there? I always used Advantage (the stuff you put on the back of their necks every month), but it's just ... expensive. And I've heard that it has a lot of nasty chemicals that you really wouldn't want to put into your body (meaning I wouldn't want to put it...

Hellooooo again.  Okay so here's the basic story - my cat is ~3 years old, and she's super adorable. I love her to death,  Anyways, my cat had a case of urinary crystals about a year and a half ago.  One other small thing I'm concerned about - my mom is a heavy duty worker. I know she's out...

Hello.   I'm sure most of you have seen at least one of my threads and know that I'm new to this whole thing. I'm planning to adopt a kitten with my boyfriend once we've moved into our apartment (hopefully soon!), and we've both been talking about our plans for the raw food and stuff. So, I had...

Okay, this isn't a super serious thing. I just wanted to get input from everyone. I have this person that I'm friends with on my Facebook (a cousin of a friend), who adamantly believes that "premium" pet foods (kibbles and such) are healthy. This all started when I began posting about the raw...

Hi all. :) I already discussed the major things about raw feeding in this thread: http://www.thecatsite.com/t/249593/raw-feeding-costly . I plan on using the Frankenprey method, for my future kitten, but still feel really unsure about how to do it. I know that with grinding, you can put...

Hello there. I just got interested in the raw feeding for my cat, and I just had a couple of questions. Do you find it costly in comparison to kibble/wet foods? About how much do you think you spend on preparing food a month? What would be the best way to keep it low-budget, without...
