I’d rather not try any milk at this point. I’ve never really given either cat milk. Funny thing happened last night. I don’t know, Minnie is surprising me with her quest for food. I was cutti g up chicken breasts which were previously frozen and she jumped up on the counter and pawed a piece...

As an add, Minnie was doing great this morning up until she jumped up on the kitchen counter and slurped up some milk I had there for coffee. I saw her jump up and couldn’t get there in time. A few seconds later she projectile vomited all over the kitchen floor.

Prosciutto? I know I’m Italian but I didn’t think prosciutto was good for cats as wel...lol! All kidding aside I may try covering the pill with cheese - not sure though if I’ll use cheddar, brie or cream!

It’s supposed to be given on an empty stomach. I’d have to mix it in too much food for her to not detect it.

Thank you for the links and advice on new brands of cat food. I’ll give the food a try but I’ll have to keep her sister away from Minnie’s bowl because Sophie has IBD and is allergic to chicken and turkey. Thanks for your help, it get overwhelming when you are trying to do your best for your...

I picked up some Now brand taurine in 100mg capsules. I sprinkled about 1/4 of the capsule on her food and she ate it! Yay! She’s usually fussy about me adding stuff to her food. Y vet is orderi g Denamarin for me and she will have it by tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll be able to pill Minnie. She also...

I absolutely apprciate all your help. I am going to try to work with my vet. Not being a holistic vet, we sometimes have a difference of opinion, but I do trust her. I did find some organic milk thistle seeds that I was going to grind down and add to her food but Ive been told that they’re...

Could you post a pic of the 4paws bottle please when you have a chance just to make sure I order the right one. Also, it says they are bacon and cheese flavor chewables, is that correct?

I just checked the ingredients on the pork and prairie flavors and they both contain manadione. So I will be bringing them back and trying to find food without that ingredient. Also, I went on Amazon to order the 4paws supplement ($22) but they don’t ship to Canada. When I went on Amazon.ca...

How much taurine should I add daily and is it possible to have too much taurine ( overdose)? I’ll get the taurine to orrow after work and maybe I should switch to another brand of cat food that has more animal protein. I’d love for Minnie to eat raw but I’ll get her through one battle at a time...

Minnie is eating 1.5 cans of Nutri Source brand. She gets either the High plains or the pork flavor. Both are 175 and 170 cal per can respectively. I also noticed that salt is fairly high up on the ingredient list which could account for her drinking more than usual. Any thoughts on this brand...

Sorry for the long post.... Minnie my 7 yr old cat was always approx 13 lbs. I used to feed her Fancy Feast canned and Fromm dry food. When my other cat Sophie became ill with IBD I decided to change their food in case it was an allergy to something in the FF that was causing issues with...

Must to update Sophie is doing much better now. She was on prednisolone for about 1 month and I slowly introduced her to a commercial raw diet. She is off the pred now for over 4 months and has gained back her weight and then some. She no longer has the runs and her poops are formed. I think the...

My vet did a house call today and drew blood for WBC. Sophie's lymphocyte count was 6.7 two weeks ago when another vet, closer to my home had done the test. Today, my regular vet did it and just called me with the results...Sophie's lymphocyte count is now 13 ! She is sending the blood sample...

Update: My regular Vet called and I explained the situation to her. She had a look at the emailed blood test results and said that although elevated lymphocytes "could be" lymphoma she would like to wait a couple of weeks and then do another blood test. She said that there are different types of...

The vet said that she was in the beginning stages but that she was more concerned with the elevated lymphocytes. Im not even convinced the elevated lymphocytes are due to intestinal lymphoma. I'm not sure what to treat at this time- suspected lymphoma or early stage kidney disease??? Will the...

I read on this site that S Boulardii can help with diarrhea so I purchased some and have been giving Sophie for the last 2 days 1 capsule per day split btwn morning and evening meals. Her poop has firmed up and is coming out "formed" but still soft. I'm hoping that her diarrhea issue will be...
