First this is the rule of TCS ...
TheCatSite.com Forums is dedicated to cat care & welfare. We are a worldwide forum and therefore a mix of different cultures, races and religions; there is always room for different opinions, however, intolerance, bigotry, and religious ridicule will not be tolerated. Additionally, there is no room for flames, slams, and personal vendettas that carry on to the public view. Posting of graphic and or objectionable photos is strictly forbidden. Anyone caught doing this will be automatically banned.
We have drafted some basic principles we'd like you to be aware of before you post: Remember, we are a family oriented website.
1. No online advice can replace direct veterinary intervention. If you suspect that your cat may be ill, please contact your vet immediately. You are welcome to look for advice in the health forum while waiting for that appointment, but never delay proper veterinary care waiting for Internet advice. Remember that cats, and especially kittens, are very adept in keeping pain to themselves and delaying treatment may cause irreversible damage.
This is a CAT WELFARE site which means we are expecting you to actually use a vet as needed... In most industrialized country's this equals once or twice a year check up s when NOT sick . More if sick . If you cannot afford to see a vet check out the links that have been put together on the subject.
Yes typically vets do not have advanced education in nutrition , neither do MOST on here
... But asking your vet questions about nutrition may save you heartache and lots of money later... Most are willing to look up new things as Many on here have found out ... Myself included having asked many vets and not a one was completely unwilling to hear me out and then give feedback based on their experience ...
NO one diet will keep all cats healthy . Many cats live without issues on grocery dry . While Many on here do not think this is optimal it is perfectly acceptable . If you cannot afford it check out the links that have been put together on the subject.
Read the threads at the top of forums these are sticky threads for a reason , many basic questions can often be answered there
