    Orion The Wonder Cat.

    He ate dinner tonight and hasn't thrown up yet. We originally gave him about 2.7 ounces of wet food which he held down for the last two hours, just gave him the rest hoping it stays down. I forgot to mention with his bloodwork for the teeth they ruled out kidney disease and hyperthyroidism.

    Grinder help and bones

    I did not know about brine... I'll have to check with them about it, I got the chicken thighs and livers from whole foods, and the hearts from a local butcher. Do you know of any better places to get those types of cuts? Trying to find hearts was a challenge in itself. I'm in Tempe Arizona. On...

    Grinder help and bones

    Hello, We sort of unsuccessfully made the first raw batch of food . I was having major difficulties with my grinder becoming clogged with bone, and was hoping for some hints/tips on how to help prevent this and anything else that may help keeping this clean/safe. Grinder:  - STX INTERNATIONAL...

    Stella and Chewy's for a cat with FLUTD

    Yeah.. When he was blocked he was on a partial wet and dry mix, so it was really disappointing when I found out they were trying to send me home with a big bag of dry royal canine SO. I was like 'no" right away. But, I am thinking of investing in a grinder and starting to make my own food. Do...

    Stella and Chewy's for a cat with FLUTD

    Yes, she said to me and my boyfriend not to feed it to either of our cats. (no raw diets at all) This is a vet clinic that has rotating doctors, so it really might have just been her opinion. The other vet we had worked with wasn't really sure if we should or not.

    Stella and Chewy's for a cat with FLUTD

    I use the right amount of water that is written in the instructions on the package, if not a little more than needed because I'm always scared of a re-block, my boy Orion loves the stuff, he loves it more than Tiki cat (chicken of course) I just started to feed it to him and he really really...

    Stella and Chewy's for a cat with FLUTD

    Since his incident with a blockage I have done everything my vet suggested, but when my vet said no to raw feeding I was a bit confused. I have my female cat on a commercial raw diet, I'm comfortable with it, but I am really hoping my male cat will be able to join the raw food diet too. Any...

    Scratching Carpet.

    My boy Orion has been digging up our carpet, I know it is because he is trying to get out of the room he is put in while we are our of the house, but he is put in there for his own safety. I was hoping I could get some ideas to kind of make him not scratch the carpet while he is in there. He is...

    Hairs balls and getting a cat groomed?

    So A while ago (Nov 4th) I got my girl cat (Sunrise) groomed. She was having really bad hairballs before we had gotten her groomed and after she was entirely ok, no more hairballs, no more sad retching sounds from her. It's been since Nov 4th since we got her groomed again, and she is starting...

    Picky cat won't eat his prescription diet!

    Great Idea, I'll try it tonight, I'm open to more suggestions too if anyone has any. I got some Bonito flakes last night to try and mix in with it, it seemed to work for a few bites, but then he was like "Not eating this!"

    Picky cat won't eat his prescription diet!

    It was the canned food. I have the two types canned SO, the pate and the "morsels in gravy". He doesn't want anything to do with either.

    Picky cat won't eat his prescription diet!

    So all of sudden my cat Orion has decided he wants nothing to do with his Royal Canin SO (for FLUTD). Last Saturday he was cleared for having any crystals in his urine, but still had a small amount of bacteria, so they gave us some antibiotics. On Monday we noticed he hadn't eaten any of his...

    urinary blockage recovery

    No He is not on Prazosin. I was looking back over all of the paperwork they had given me and they didn't give me a medicine called Phenoxybenazime. I was just looking this up and it seems that Prazosin and Phenoxybenazime have basically the same effect. According to my vet who I just called they...

    urinary blockage recovery

    He goes in the box quite frequently, but goes best on his side, he is on 1/4 tablet of diazepam every 12 hours and .4 ml of Buprenorphine every 6-8 hours. His antibiotic is 1.2 ml of orbifloxacin once daily. It is a dripping kind of urination when he is on the bed, but he goes so much. His...
