    healthy food for struvite prone cat

    Thanks, Sharky, I'll have to take a closer look at Nutro. Their website doesn's seem to list out ingredients, but if they aren't prescription I can check at the store. I'm curious what ingredients in Wysong you object to? The info I found on Wysong ingredients was at: www.wysong.net...

    healthy food for struvite prone cat

    Thanks for the list of companies that make food for FLUTD/struvite crystals, Sharky. What I am looking for more specifically is companies that don't use BHA/BHT or other non-natural preservatives, and that also don't use animal by products. I have never fed my cats food with artificial...

    graphic - cat very sick after ingesting a rat

    My cat Morty ate a rat Thursday night. He vomited most of it back up within an hour or so, and seemed to feel OK Friday and Saturday morning. By Saturday afternoon he was breathing sort of rapidly and spent all his time just sitting, not really sleeping, looking miserable. His breathing...

    skin and fur questions

    Sandie, Morty doesn't generally groom Claude, but Claude does seem to groom himself quite a lot in the areas that are slightly tinted. Claude has long hair and spends enough time outside that he has a thick winter coat. He seems to groom himself more than Morty because of the excess fur (at...

    skin and fur questions

    I will be making an appointment for both of my cats tomorrow, but am wondering if anybody has had any experience with the following while we are waiting for the appointment. Our older cat, Morty, who is nine years old has a small patch (about the size of a dime) on his chin. The fur is not...
