An update and a question! Last week they tried pork (gobbled down), and also shared a raw egg yolk (didn't last long either). Yesterday I gave them a little chicken heart and liver (!!), which they also ate with no trouble! We're still at the stage of just trying out different proteins to...

I've been interested in trying raw for a while, and am finally starting to take the first few steps with our two kittens Luke and Leia (4.5 months). They're currently on a commercial canned diet. I'm aiming for Prey Model Raw, although I'm still unsure whether to go all the way or do it in...

Hey, thought I'd post a quick update since I took both kittens to the vet on Sunday. The vet checked out Luke's stomach and agreed that it's still quite big, but thinks it seems better than last time. She said it seems much less gassy, and she didn't get the impression that it's fluid (which is...

He was tested for coccidia along with worms on Saturday, and it came back clear. But I don't know the accuracy level of the tests, so maybe it's possible he's still fighting it off? I've noticed that he does seem to eat an awful lot and poop an awful lot (many times a day, sometimes not so...

Hi, thanks for your reply! Last time the vet saw him a few weeks ago she wasn't sure whether his stomach was actually swollen or if it was just kitten roundness, but when I spoke to her on Saturday she sounded a bit concerned that he was still so round. (She didn't actually see him, as she'd...

I'm quite concerned about one of our kittens, who has a very round belly. It's been like this since we got him just over two months ago (from a shelter at 8 weeks old), and hasn't particularly got better or worse. He doesn't seem to have any discomfort from it. I was initially thinking it might...

I wish Luke waited until I had finished cleaning the box before hopping in! Always has to be part way through ;) Tandem litter box usage:

My kittens absolutely do this too! Larry always insisted on watching and/or using while I cleaned the litter box, and now Luke pretty much always hops in part way through . Leia doesn't usually bother, though. But Luke and Leia like to pee in the box at the same time...  

Thank you both for your advice! I haven't been able to find any L-lysine in the shops yet (living in Japan and not sure if it's widely available here), but I've ordered some in powder form online, which will hopefully be arriving within a week. Still trying to decide whether to take them back...

I’m looking for some advice on helping our two kittens, Luke and Leia, who are suffering from recurring colds (not sure which virus). We adopted them about 5 weeks ago from a shelter, and both are now just over 3 months old. They had already been neutered and had their first set of shots in...
