    Raw and Canned

    Thank you for your reply.  Ill take this into consideration.  I'm a worry wart with him, so I might play it safe and maybe just give him a treat of a raw chicken wing a day until I can get him back on his raw only diet.

    Raw and Canned

    Good evening everyone.  I have a quick question as I'm having trouble finding a specific answer.  I feed my boy grain free wet, mostly red barn currently, but I'm wondering if its ok to throw in raw chicken thigh chunks mixed in with his meals of canned.  I see people say 15% of the cats diet a...

    New, looking for reassurance and some questions

    For myself..I don't really follow any guidelines.  I think it varies too heavily on the individual cat.  Being that mine is a kitten I would typically let him eat as much as he wanted per serving time, but he has issue's with getting gassy and bloated if he eats too much in 1 sitting (to the...

    New, looking for reassurance and some questions

    That's too funny Peaches ! I too have, probably irrational, fears since this little one is my first male cat.  In my search for a new kitty I was specific in wanting female only, but ended up with him and so happy I did.  I definitely make sure he is well hydrated the best that I can, luckily he...

    Water intake on raw diet

    He's not so much for playing in it, but I notice that its mostly just more trips then I expected for a raw fed kitten, but his intake isn't really much at all.  He will be 5 months on September 2nd, so he's still eating more then an adult cat would. I'm just an over worrier I think lol.  I...

    Water intake on raw diet

    Thank you everyone.  Definitely put my mind at ease.  I tend to over worry when I notice the slightest of changes, but I guess it should be expected since he is a growing boy. I always add water to his servings to make my raw soupy as well, I prefer it over adding extra to the whole recipe.  I...

    Water intake on raw diet

    Hi, thank you for replying.  He is taking meds for the URI actually, but is about to finish his 10 days.  He's been taking Azithromycin.  Were at the every 48 hour dosing stage.  And I agree with your statement, I will make a call to my vet and see what they say as well.  I tend to trust people...

    Water intake on raw diet

    My 4 month old kitty seems to be drinking a lot for a raw eater.  He drinks small amounts at a time, but the trips to the water seems like a lot.  Ive read time and again that cats on raw don't drink much, and sometimes go a couple days, so I'm a little concerned.  He's not dehydrated and acts...

    Meet Toby.

    Wow is he ever adorable!  I love his markings, the white going onto his nose is so cute.  And of course always great to hear when a kitty gets saved!

    Anchovies instead of salmon oil?

    Hi, thank you for your response.  Yes, I'm curious if I can give anchovies for the required omega he needs instead of squirting salmon oil on his food once a day.  Not mixed into the batch but separetly as a treat type thing.  So if Im understanding correctly, once a week I can give him an...

    Anchovies instead of salmon oil?

    Good afternoon everyone.  As stated in the title, can anchovies be given over using a salmon oil supplement?  And if so, how much/often do you give it to them?  I make my batches without using oil because as I understand the oil needs to be fresh.  If anchovies is a good alternative I'd prefer...

    New, looking for reassurance and some questions

    Thank you so much!  I will definitely get that and start it right away.  How do you go about using it?  Crushed up in the food?  Or can I actually mix it into my batches?  I make up 6 lbs, which I will be doing on Sunday in fact.  Oh and whats the general rule on how much to use?  Sorry for all...
