    Just Had A Vet Checkup, Need Some Advice.

    Hi, thanks for the info. I believe Carnivora grinds up the full animal and turns it into patties. I will do a bit more research on the topic.

    Thinking About Adding Another Member To The Family.

    I've been thinking hard and I'm not sure our cat family is the best fit for him. Our third is still getting bulled 7 years later. Sometimes I even catch the Siamese stalking her when she in the litter box. I'm not sure adding such a calm cat to a situation like this is fair to him. He deserves a...

    Thinking About Adding Another Member To The Family.

    The fact that he isn't on the website, makes me think that the cafe is already considered the foster. I will email the adoption agency and find out if that is an option. Thank you for the suggestion.

    Thinking About Adding Another Member To The Family.

    Hello Everyone, My wife and I currently have three cats in our life. Chai (F, domestic short-hair) Cecil (M, Siamese mix) Cecilia (F, Siamese mix) They have all just recently turned 7 and they are great fun :) Just this last weekend we tried out a new cafe near our house. Turns out it's a...

    Just Had A Vet Checkup, Need Some Advice.

    Hey guys, So I just finished with the last appointment for shot updates, teeth cleaning, and blood work $$$ :) All three of my cats had near identical results from their blood tests, and I think the vet has realised that as well. He gave me a hard time when I took Chai in, but by the third...

    Hey, thanks! there is a mountain of info in there. I will have to sit down for a few hours tonight to go through it. She ate around 0900, and the appointment was at 1000. They said she had no urine available, so they were unable to take a sample. They called me to pick her up at 1245. All of the...

    Just Had A Vet Checkup, Need Some Advice.

    Yea I was just adding the small scoop of Almo to vary things a little. I checked a few sites on the NuPro and some say it has taurine, and others don't. I'll have a look at the pet store to see if they have a "more complete" raw option. I used to rotate between all the varieties of Carnivora...

    They refuse to eat the chicken or fish from Carnivora. I just emailed them asking about feeding guidelines. I will confirm on the taurine when I hear back. Thanks.

    Just Had A Vet Checkup, Need Some Advice.

    Hey, Thanks for the concern. There are two formulas that our store carries. One is just meat/bone/organ, the other is the previous 3 mixed with fruits and veg. I got for the meat. They were on canned food for about a year (wellness), and we have a few health concerns that required vet visits...

    Looks like I missed a few posts here. This is what they get: Carnivora raw food diet and supplementary food for cats and dogs These come in pucks. I get Beef, Bison, and Pork. I divide the puck into 6 pieces. In the morning they get one piece and for dinner they get another. Home Page - Almo...

    Just Had A Vet Checkup, Need Some Advice.

    Guess it's like vegans right? They probably encounter docs telling them their diet is flawed all the time. I found a single holistic vet in town but the reviews are not great. Lots of misdiagnoses, and high prices. Think I might stick to the vet I just went to for the dental cleanings until I...

    Just Had A Vet Checkup, Need Some Advice.

    Hello again! So I just called three cat only vets and another everything vet with 4.9/5 starts on google. All 4 basically said our vets do not recommend raw diets. The cat only clinics would be far better IMO, but I'm really tired of people telling me I'm killing my pets with a raw diet. I'll...

    HAHA thanks for the link! Seriously you guys are the friendliest more caring forum I've been part of. Really appreciate it. I'm not too worried about carrier style was just planning on getting a bigger one. I tried taking all three to the vet at once before and it was chaos. The tech opened...

    P.S. he said there was an indication of early stages of a UTI, but nothing serious at this time. I've posted on another forum and it seems a vet tech has replied to me. He's been asking for a bunch of the test readings. So I'll report back with what he says. And yes second opinion is my first...
