I have 2 bonded litter-mates 20 months old, they are inseparable. I have tried timed feedings, and feeding in different rooms and am almost to the point of getting those microchip feeders, but before i spend that much money I wanted to get some advice. Here is the background: I adopted these...

So in an effort to get my newly adopted cats on a better diet ( they were eating FF gravy lovers and RC kibble ) and were soooooo gassy...ugh. I tried S+C freeze dried...well they really like it, but not re-hydrated, they like the little nuggets right out of the bag. I am fighting a losing...

Because of my schedule I do tend to free feed the kibble and the wet they get twice a day about 7 am then again at 7pm, can they go 12 hours without food or should i invest in a timed feeder? I ask because my other guy who passed away could not go for 5 hours without puking up bile/stomach acid...

My Bubba had CKD and IBD, food was always tricky and so im overly cautious with food changes. I am thinking the gas is caused by poor diet I eventually want to get these guys transitioned to raw, but it's definitely going to be a process lol. Neither like pate food, one is a vacuum with his FF...

Ok I've had cats all my life and very rarely have i ever experienced a cat fart...These one year old boys I adopted are kings of cat farts! at least once a day I experience one from each boy, usually when they are being cuddled or on the lap. When they were in foster care, they had Fecal...

I have 2 one year old boys, one is a clepto...anything he can fit into his mouth gets stolen, the other could care less. sometimes I think he just likes to carry things in his mouth, he is a big cat ( 15lbs ) with a big mouth, lol. The other night my hubby left the garbage can open...he got one...

Hey Guys! So I have adopted two 13 month old brothers from a rescue and they are big boys! They are indoor only but super active, athletic. One is a bit bigger than the other, they are very tall and long (38 inches from nose to tail for the big one and 18 inches from floor to head--just top of...

so I just measured these guys and honestly I dont know what is average ( all my cats have been 8lbs or less and way smaller-but they may have just been small cats) when sitting on their haunches they are 15 and 17 inches from floor to top of head. I did manage to get an approximate length on the...

I adopted two 13 month old brothers from a local rescue, these boys are big! when i weighed them they were 15lbs and 16lbs, they also seem very tall to me ( maybe its just that my last baby was small) couldnt get a nose to tail measure, but just sitting from floor to top of head they are 15 and...

Oh these boys are tall and big! I weighed them at home ( not 100 percent accurate obviously, but weighed myself, then picked one up and weighed myself and him) The big brother weighs 16lbs and the "little" one weighs 15lbs. They are absolutely inseperable, its so cute! The rescue said they have...

I just adopted two brother cats 1 year old. These guys are so tall, aside from being a DSH, I am trying to figure out what might be in their background that makes them so tall. with such long legs they are very athletic and LOVE to jump, their favorite toy is a bouncy ball..the higher the...

So my Cat is pretty ill right now ( he has a pretty bad kidney infection ) and he also has suspected IBD/Pancreatitis --he is on his way to recovery ( praying ) but he was 10 lbs, he dropped to 5 lbs...the vet put him on recovery RS and he's up to 6.9lbs. We purchased some Fortflora to add to...

An update on Bubba~he's had two vet visits since my last post The first visit after a list of symptoms and examination, the vet took blood and prepared us for the worst, letting us know it looked very much like intestinal cancer ( or very severe IBD ). He had dropped for his normal lean 9lbs to...

Hi Guys! I am beside myself and need some advice. 2 weeks ago vet said she suspected IBD and possibly hyperthyroid, because of weight loss and also he was having tummy gurgles, vomiting more than he should, loose stools and all his previous history of vet visits and symptoms. He was in for a...

I think I might try the freeze dried toppers with a different protein to see how he reacts. That way I can do it slowly and see how it affects him without making such a large investment in something he wont like. He is so picky,he's always been this way when it comes to anything wet. Kibble...

So, My sweet Bubba cat has suspected IBD, he had a pretty bad flare and was puking up everything we gave him ( kibble and wet ), after doing alot of research Hubby and I decided to start him on a raw diet. There was no "transition" as everything was making him sick. We bought Natures Variety...

He is finally on the mend, what a stressful few days he has had. He did not have crystals or stones, they think it was actually caused by stress ( probably the earlier vet visit that day...poor thing is super chill at at home, but the minute the carrier comes out he starts panicking..and then in...

how long do you think is normal for him not to go pee? vet said i had to keep an eye out in case he gets a blockage for the next few days, he has had some water since he got back and tried a couple times, but nothing...Its only been 2 hours since we got back from the er vet, just not sure when i...

Poor Guy has had a really rough day. Its A few minutes before 5am and we are finally home. We have prazosin, amox/clav, bupe and cosequin. He has a bladder infection, vet says the likely cause is stress from earlier today ( yesterday technically ). Thank you for the good vibes, i was beyond...

Its almost 3am, Bubba was at the vet earlier today for his swollen nose. We are now at the er vet, about 9pm he started going in and out of the litterbox, i really didnt think that too strange, to be honest. Hubby woke me at 1230, he couldn't pee! He was squatting just about everwhere, trying...
