Hi! I haven't posted here for awhile. I'm returning because I needs some thoughts from everyone. I'm so sorry that I'm long-winded! Background: I have two kitties ~4 years old, who both were started on raw food right after adoption as kittens. They have thrived on it; they have gorgeous coats...

I'm a pretty crunchy person in general...my boy and girl eat an all-raw diet, we use a holistic vet, etc. But, my husband and I both work in healthcare so we're all aware that sometimes conventional medicine is the answer. We moved from our apartment to a house in a borderline rural/suburban...

My vet says my mother's six year old cat has significant tartar and needs a dental appointment (under anaesthesia, etc.). She's been fed only canned food and looking at her teeth, there is a lot of buildup. My vet is shifting his practice focus so there are limited appointments and unfortunately...

I did an insurance quote on my new rescue kitten, since I figure it's better to do it now - I hope he's always healthy, but it's better to have had insurance if he becomes ill. He is fluffy and kitten-y and the tag on his cage at the adoption center had "domestic medium hair" written, but the...

We've had a new kitten in the house for about a month, and he came to us with brown crusts outside the corners of his eyes and some sneezing that seem to both have tapered off. The vet didn't say anything about his eyes at his initial visit, and we didn't bring him back in since his actual eyes...

My two kittens have been fed on Rad Cat, and while it's awesome and convenient, the addition of kitten #2 is making husband cranky about the cost of feeding such a premium raw food. I had ordered rabbit from Hare Today and mixed up a big batch using Dr. Pierson's recipe - it went over well with...

I adopted a 4 month old Maine Coon-ish kitten a few weeks ago, and he came to me with no reported health issues, but I did note brown crust outside the inner corners of his eyes. I cleaned it off with a wet cloth and figured it wasn't a big deal. However, it seems that the crust sort of builds...

I have a 9-month old kitten and wanted to get her a companion before it would be even more difficult...spayed, adopted at around 3 months old. She can be a bit..wired...and is not super affectionate, but does snuggle at night and will allow a few chin scritches. And she certainly wants to be...

My vet has an extremely conscientious practice...I could describe all of the ways, but let's just say that he is a very crunchy individual. That being said, he only offers the 3-year adjuvanted rabies vaccine. My 6 year old cat had not been boostered on anything since kittenhood, so I recently...
