    Timothy's Weight Loss Thread

    We adopted a 2 year old orange man named Oliver who could be prone to obesity. We do a varity of things including Stella's Duck duck Goose, Wellness canned, EVO 95%, ect. Portion control is really all it is. I found Vital Essentials freeze dried that I can leave out. I don't think Oliver loves...

    The Canned Food Bible

    I have used this for a few years but hadn't looked at it in awhile. Looks like they updated the format.

    My Cat Peach With Constant Constipation & Possible Obstruction

    1/4 teaspoon a day of Miralax will keep kitty going smoothly. If you find her stool a little loose, cut it to 1/8th teaspoon. But it is easier to prevent constipation with low dose Miralax than stop it and she becomes constipated again. Miralax is safe for long term use.

    Litter Box (so Many Choices!)

    We are loving the Breeze system. We have 2 cats so I think we are going to have to change the pads every 2-3 days. No smell, no tracking.

    Worried About Quality Of Life For Our Older Cat

    Give more background on kitty. Age, health, ect. While not dealt with an ear growth, it is way early to be talking put to sleep.

    I Need Help With My Kitten--emergency

    Sounds like she has irritable bowel or at least a food sensitivity to whatever the new food was. Unfortunately, she is young and you can't tough this out. So this just started today? Put the regular food back down and tomorrow, run to Pet Smart or something like it and get some KMR (kitten milk...

    Has anyone tried marijuana to help treat IBD in cats?

    We ordered Canna Pet for Leonard when his refractory nausea was unresponsive to meds. (He had FIP) I contacted the company for dosing and they were very responsive to my emails. Unfortunately, we put him to sleep the day it arrived. I forwarded my bottle to a fellow FIP fighter and she said it...

    Kitten sick for over 2 weeks, no definitive answers from vets

    I am so sorry! FIP can cause seizures. We put Leonard to sleep on 3/10 as his dry FIP turned to wet FIP and I wasn't going to put him thru that. I am so sorry!

    I scruffed my cat I feel awful

    You might have irritated his ears a bit with a rough grab. Give him some milk and tuna and lots of love and he will forget it.

    FIP? Please help...

    We lost 7 month old Leonard to FIP. 2 weeks after adoption from a shelter, he began to exhibit symptoms. He had dry FIP for 3 months only to have it turn to wet. We put him to sleep immediately. It was so heartbreaking. We did everything possible. It's a fatal disease that attacks the young.

    Sick 9 month old kitten - help!

    You can't test for FIP unfortunately. It is a diagnosis of exclusion. Is kitty eating? Weight loss despite eating is bothersome. Did they run a full panel of labs? Can you post them?

    Peak Food Consumption for Kittens

    I too would be interested how you free feed raw. I have an overweight one and a 6 month old. The overweight one is new to the house so I am hoping raw will turn him around.
