I had always heard this when I was younger, so I only started using clumping litter about five years ago. Honestly, I wish I would've just used clumping all along. Obviously try to find an unscented variety but I think the benefits of getting rid of liquid waste more easily, in addition to being...

My cat Missy is not crazy about our two dogs. They're Australian Cattle Dogs so they're medium sized - definitely not Pomeranians! I felt the same way as you,  I just wanted everyone to coexist, and for Missy to feel comfortable enough to wander around the house even with the dogs. I got Missy...

Stay strong! My chubby cat Missy would eat all day long if  I gave her the chance. They'll beg and beg but if you know you're giving them enough calories, let them beg! They just want to wear you down so you'll give in!

I definitely prefer petco to pet smart. Much better variety of food and products, and they have the bulk kitty litter which is nice when you don't want a collection of large plastic buckets. Unfortunately they don't carry raw food -- though the employee knew what I was talking about when I asked!

The outdoor cat situation is something to think about. I would maybe try using those feliway diffusers first. Also, I don't know if you've watched that My Cat From Hell show, but it seems like more playtime is something that works for just about every behavior issue. If you have your mom play...

I've been through a whole diarrhea debacle with my kitten and it turns out she can't eat chicken or turkey. Keep that in mind, but I'm not sure how common it would be for both kittens to have that problem.

I've noticed my Mikey digs in three different spots before she poops. Every time. I'm pretty sure she only digs once when she pees. So weird. My other cat likes her privacy when she goes, I think I've only seen her in the litter box once, lol.

Thank you all so much for your suggestions! Mikey is approximately 7-8 months old now and doing pretty well. About three weeks ago I took her to a local spay and neuter clinic to have her fixed and microchipped. She has a primary vet that I'm honestly not crazy about and the surgery there would...

Do you feed Tumbles wet food in addition to the 1/8 C of the rx food?

I guess I'll add an update. The diarrhea was still happening with the various grain free food I was feeding her, with pumpkin. I called the vet in early November to see if I could drop off another stool sample, but they told me not to waste my money, and they prescribed me tylan powder and...

Thank you so much Tammyp! The timeline is so helpful, I definitely wouldn't have given her enough time w/ each protein.

I was feeding her and my other cat friskies and/or fancy feast for awhile. When I decided to get a handle on this poop thing, about a month ago, I did the chicken/rice thing, then blue buffalo wet (grain-free.) I tend to feed her 3-4x/day, usually three, and I do give her a capsule of probiotic/...

They are still quite runny. I feel like I get impatient with the food changes, but she has been on the evo since her last vet appt. about two weeks ago, and I added the kitten wilderness dry this past weekend...no change in her stool.  Yeah, I only saw one or two "normal" poos when I was feeding...

I'm sorry for posting another diarrhea question, there seem to be so many, but I'm not sure what my next step should be. I found Mikey as an 8-9 week old out by some woods. At her first vet appointment she was given a broad deworming, advantage multi, and some magical flea-killing medicine. I...

My dog Matt is a main character in this photo, but Milo hiding behind the shower curtain always cracks me up! I guess he's *peeking* somewhat, lol.

My four year old Milo recently passed away very suddenly from a blocked urethra.  He and my other cat Missy got along really well. I've only had Missy for about 1 1/2 years, though she's approx. 8 yrs/old. She's always lived with Milo and I really didn't see her as being an only cat, and I...
