Hello everyone!


Its been awhile since Ive posted as things have seemed to settle down here on the cat farm LOL. Ive looked at the grooming posts but havent seen an answer to this. Ive noticed most of my ferrals have a wirey type fur, all except for Midnight (he must have been from the mailman !)...is there something I can put in their food to give their coats a little shine??

Mostly Wal Mart brand special kitty twice a day (all I can afford with all these cats Im caring for) with a can of moist cat food added each feeding.

It is the poor quality food. You really need to improve what you are feeding these cats, and if you have to many that you can't afford to feed them quality food, what are you doing about vet care then?

The cats here were living on country biscuits and left over country ham when I arrived and were thin as rails. No one cared as to whether they had shelter in the winter and their main diet was field mice. So, I look at what I am doing for them as a major improvement ! I dont remember seeing Walmart premium, but I will check it out. Thanks Sharky!
