Hi everyone, I'm planning to go on vacation In November. I'm wondering if it's ok that I leave my cat at home for that duration with dependable family members/cat sitter come in twice a day to feed him, clean his litter box and play with him. Does anyone have any experience with leaving a cat...

Hi everyone, I'm considering giving my cat raw chicken gizzards twice a week for his teeth so I don't need to devise a strategy to catch him off guard for a brush (yes, he has now figured out precisely when I'm about to grab him for a brush and tries to make a run for it). Because you can't...

Hi everyone, I just took my cat to the vet this past Saturday for an annual check-up. This is the first time I've brought the cat to a vet and I know it's time to bring him because his record shows his last visit was August of 2012. He's currently 1.5 years old. So at the vet, some blood...

Not sure if anyone here feeds Merrick's cat food but it seems like they're combing their classic and before grain lines and the formula seems to have gotten worst. According to the food composition chart at catinfo.org, Merrick's Cowboy cookout and Grammy's pot pie have pretty good %...

I've just had my cat for 5 months now. All's been well until lately I've been waking up with a runny nose and congestion. Also when the cat scratches me even without drawing blood, the skin reddens and the site of the scratch seems to be slightly elevated. Am I developing cat allergies or is it...

This morning for the first time ever, my cat Elvis pooped outside his litterbox on the kitchen rug. Let me first say that, I'm not really sure if it's really poop, because it doesn't smell (and his poops does smell I know because he forgot to cover up his poop once and the entire room smells...

Hi everyone, my cat uses the litterbox consistently however once in a while he leaves small piece of his poop around the litterbox. I'm not sure if it's accidental or there's a medical condition but he seems healthy to me: eating with no appetite problem, grooming himself, very energetic when...

Hi all, I'm currently feeding my kitty Elvis a half dry, half wet diet. He's currently 1 year old. I was feeding Orijen Poultry and Fish and now switched over to Nature's Variety Instinct Chicken kibbles. As for wet, I feed a large variety (Wellness Core, Nature's Variety Instinct, EVO...

Hi everyone, I've been hearing mixed opinion on this one but should I buy different types of food and let my cat try them (even though he's fine with the current food) or stick with one type? As of now, I've been sticking to one type of dry food (Orijen) and wet food I stick with the same brand...

Hi, I have a 11 month old male kitten, Elvis and I've just had him for a bit over 2 months after I adopted him from the shelter. Starting from last week, I started to brush his teeth and find it's quite difficult to effectively brush his inner teeth from the side because he tends to feel...

I'm new to the forum and had my cat Elvis for 2 months now ever since I adopted him from a shelter. So far, I've enjoyed being a cat owner is grateful his companionship :) I used to feed Elvis exclusively on dry food. I gave him Orijen (Chicken and fish), about half a cup a day and he seems to...
