    Coronavirus

    Many cats have the Corona virus, that in itself is NOT a cause for alarm. The very sad and unfortunate news is that nobody can predict which cat will get FIP and which won't. Younger cats (kittens) and eldery cats are more prone to developing FIP, but no one is ever out of the woods. I sadly had...

    slippery elm bark for crf cat?

    I know this thread was started a little over a month ago, but I wanted to add my experience. My 14.5 year old cat is also suffering from CRF and he had huge belly issues, such as vomiting everything he ate. It was a constant battle to get him to keep anything down! I heard about Slippery Elm...

    Older cat not accepting raw?

    Thanks again for helping me! I think that I will try Dr. Pitcairn's Feline Renal recipe from the thread that you suggested. That one looks like something that my old guy will enjoy! Once I again, I can't thank you enough for offering your help and advice. I'm sure that I will be back if I have...

    Older cat not accepting raw?

    Thanks for all the suggestions! Yes, I will probably cut out the psyllium as I looked online at a site that had comparison photos of what a cat's stool looks like with and without it. Scary stuff LOL My cats love chewing on hearts, therefore I will probably leave the heart and liver whole to...

    Older cat not accepting raw?

    Thanks for answering! Yes, I am very new to this whole raw feeding thing. In fact, I've only been experimenting with it which is why it isn't balanced yet. I wanted to see if my cats would even eat raw meat before jumping in and buying all the ingredients. I was thinking about following this...

    Older cat not accepting raw?

    Recently I decided to make the transition from wet canned food to raw for my 3 cats. I read that you should do it slowly to avoid digestion issues. My two youngest (they are both almost 2 years old now) love the raw food! I've just been giving them some roughly chopped chicken breast and a few...

    Your experience with cat sausages?

    I thought the same thing about the noodles. What cat needs it? And you are right, it is missing bone... Maybe I will decide to feed raw after all.

    Just found out about mast cell tumor

    I am so sorry that you got bad news! I had a cat named Fluffy too (well it was his nickname actually). I've also had to deal with putting a 14 year old under anesthesia. Mine came out just fine, but I know that the risk is elevated for the older crowd. Personally I think that you are doing the...

    6 day old kitten very huge! HELP!

    I personally would bring this little guy to a vet as soon as possible. This does not look like a feeding/digesting issue to me! The large swelling on one side looks serious and painful. It needs medical care. Good luck little one!

    Future cats after FIP death?

    Hi everyone, I'm new here and I'm hoping to get some advice! This story might be too emotional for some, so please don't read on if you are sensitive to conversations regarding death. My family and I have had a rough few years after losing our 14 year old cat to what was assumed to be feline...

    Your experience with cat sausages?

    If no one has tried these cat sausages, would anyone be able to tell me if the ingredient list sounds good? Does it sound like a well balanced diet for a cat? It also states that they are free of additives, preservatives, coloring, etc.

    Your experience with cat sausages?

    Hi everyone, I'm new here! I'm a huge cat lover and I currently have 3 of them. Recently I've been thinking about how I want to better their diet as their food now consists of cheap kibble and a pouch of cheap wet food. I was considering raw, but I'm a busy mom and I don't know if I have the...
