wow...kitty porn! I have a male that has been yowling as if he is a she in heat. He has a twig and berries (he's fixed, but they left the berries and just snipped the lines), so unless he is a hermaphrodite...he gets mounted all the time by our neutered males. I suspect it is not so much a sex...

Okay, so I just could not afford the Feliway, but my local store had another spray that had the cat pheromones in it (called Quiet Moments). I'm trying that out. I also bought some Friskies wet...as everyone at Petsmart swore that it had even more "crack" than the Fancy Feast. I then topped it...

I've made a point of getting food into him, even if it is chicken nuggets. I have read a few different things that said to try pumpkin--he doesn't like it, so I syringed it into his mouth. I have been adding cod liver oil to the pumpkin as well as liquid trace mineral supplements. He didn't like...

Thank you for the link. He didn't cooperate much, but it appears that one of his fangs is possibly chipped. I don't think that is the cause though, as he didn't get upset at all with me messing with it. I'm going to wait until he is in lap kitty mode and see if I can get him to cooperate a bit...

The hunger strike is back on. I'm going to try ground turkey next. Is it possible he has a cavity or something? He is acting as he always has. His potty is the same. He's just not eating. I cannot afford a vet until the first, as I am disabled and on a fixed income. How can I check his mouth...

Making some tiny advances... Trader Joes sells kitty tuna, and he has been SLOWLY nibbling on it. He's had maybe an ounce today, but at least it is something in his tummy. I have had cats all my life and have never met such a stubborn cat as my Pavvi!!

Okay, so Pavvi ate maybe an ounce or 2 of chicken breast, but its something. I'll offer him more in a couple hours...try to ease him into eating more. I think he has won this battle. I'd rather feed him what I'm eating than have him on a hunger strike. Since I have bad food allergies, I tend to...

Heading to the store right now. The vet won't work with me, and calling around got me nowhere as I would be a new patient. Grrrrrr. To be honest, I don't think he is ill. He was born in my house, and I have had him for 3 years, I am pretty good about telling when he doesn't feel well. This...

Well Pavvi wanted my Chow Mein I was eating so I let him finish it. I think I need to make him his food, and forget about trying to get him to eat cat food right now...I know Chow Mein isn't good for him, but he ate something, and it had beef and veggies in it (and since I cooked it I know it...

Gonna try that in the morning...also gonna call the vet and see if they can work something out with me. He seems otherwise healthy, but this hunger strike thing is really bothering me.

Ain't that the truth. I don't really have a relationship with my vet, I go to the SPCA vet, as they are low cost. I'll call in the morning and see what I can work out. In the meantime, can someone suggest a recipe for me to get this stubborn guy eating? Thanks.

Friskies is a no-go also...he WANTS people food. This is getting ridiculous, and I cannot afford to take him to the vet for at least another 10 days. HELP...what next?? Do I force feed him with a squeegee thingy?? Or do I just cater to his people food demands?

So I just spent a ton of money on premium wet food...and so far my cat is turning his nose up at it. The local pet store here suggested 2 different brands which they said was pretty much human grade food...it is in gravy, not pate style...they swore it was better than kitty crack...one is Nutro...

My cats did that, I went to Walmart and got petfood and water feeders...they are between $8 and $15 (if I recall)...anyway you fill the container with food/water and its too heavy for them to knock over. It looks kind of like the water containers you would have delivered to your home. They have...

I have a few cats, and one of them wants to be an only child, so I did the opposite of what I was told when I introduced a new kitty--I caged the "only child" and let the new baby explore and scent. I used a large cage (we have a pit/boxer), and in it I put a small litter box, his food and his...

Actually I need to eat an organic diet as I have very BAD food allergies, so the Turkey slices I gave him was for me to make sandwiches with. I have a few Asian markets here in town, so I will check those out. That is a great idea, and may be something that can fit into my budget...I had...

I will add the Nutro Max to my list of things to try. I don't think I can afford to do a raw diet for him. I broke my own rule today...he hasn't eaten in a couple days, and even though he was offered cat food, he bah humbugged it...today I broke down and gave him "organic" turkey sandwich...

I have tried IAMS and Science Diet, he normally eats kibbles I get from Whole Foods...and in the past LOVED it, but since getting a taste of 2 legger food, he is now refusing everything 4 legger. I have tried canned tuna as well as canned trout (both in water), and nothing. He wants bird. He...

I have tried that, he eats the people food and leaves behind the cat food...literally picks out the people food from the mix. She was giving him sandwich meats and such, and I don't mind him eating it if he is eating, but I don't know how healthy that is in the long run...and I also don't know...

I am posting here because I believe this to be a behavior issue and not a nutritional one. My grandmother watched my cat for me when I was out of town and would give him scraps. I believe my cat has developed a taste for people food and is now refusing to eat cat food. He is hungry, but when I...
