    Wet food portion

    As @Alldara mentioned above watch body condition. Alldara posted chart above and it is also available in other posts on TCS. Calories intake has many variables and can vary greatly from cat to cat. I find watching body condition and weighing them to be the best indicators of how many kcals they...

    Featured Can my pregnancy be affecting my kitty?

    Mine definitely sensed changes. Your preparing a nursery and they are always alert for that. Our cat was older as well when our first was born. I would recommend allowing your kitty to be included in what ever is going on with the baby and not isolated from the baby. That way you can monitor...

    What is your dream cat?

    My avatar boy looked a lot like a Russian Blue and had traits of a Chartreux and Russian Blue. So I'd say Russian Blue, but I have always adopted and I do not see that ever changing.

    Cat with possible IBD getting too thin, how can I help him gain some weight back?

    I had gotten rid of all gums except agar agar. Plus brewers yeast, peas, potatoes and a couple others. A veterinary nutritionist that a family member knows suggested dropping the agar agar and that did the job. She believes there is a connection between IBD and all these gums, but no studies on...

    3weeks kittens ringworm

    No ringworm does not go away on its own. Ringworm will spread to other animals and people as well.So I would seek treatment immediately.

    My Cat Has Been “Gagging or Hacking” for past 4 days

    If your cat is gagging/ coughing repeatedly and not bringing up a hairball he /she needs to be seen by a vet. Many people pass these events off as a hairball issue. Cats that gag or cough like this even when they stop and start repeatedly in cycles are very possibly having flare ups in an asthma...

    Cat with possible IBD getting too thin, how can I help him gain some weight back?

    Mine cat has trouble with thickeners as well and so much cat food contains a lot of thickeners. Eliminating most thickeners is what put an end to all her vomiting. She tolerates a little tapioca but that's it.

    Cat with possible IBD getting too thin, how can I help him gain some weight back?

    Hi Did your vet run any blood work? CBC, Chem Panel and Thyroid testing are very important in senior cats.Weight loss of 2 or 3 pounds is significant in a cat. Frequent food vomiting is also an issue. Vomiting food could be a sign of IBD or hyperthyroidism as well as other things.I would be...

    Plz help - cat gagging and choking but no vomit

    I would call his office during business hours.He agreed he had asthma so hopefully they have a plan to treat his asthma whether it is at first with oral steroids or can go directly on inhalers. Asthma left untreated will progress from intermittent to daily and possibly multiple times a day with...

    The 2024 Gardening Thread

    Hi Have you ever tried RootMaster or a product sold at Amazon which is B12 ( last I knew in a gallon blue jug)? You mix the liquid with water and water transplants well once a week for about a month. You can water with plain water in the week if the plants need it. It has worked very well for...

    Should I be concerned about muscle atrophy?

    I am pretty much on phosphorus watch with my my 15 year old, as @FeebysOwner said egg whites are a better option. I am sure you are doing everything you can for Sadie, autoimmune diseases can be difficult. Lifetime steroids are tough, but some cats handle that better then others

    Should I be concerned about muscle atrophy?

    The issue with the Myos egg-based protein is it is high in phosphorus. This might not be a good way to increase protein especially if you have a cat with CKD or the potential of CKD. Otherwise, it may be ok though I feel better just providing a higher meat protein food.
