Spoon feeding did not eliminate it. That's what I mean - nothing I try works. It's very frustrating. She will be on Nature's Variety wet chicken food starting tomorrow. Maybe the lack of fish oil will make a difference, but I'm not holding my breath. I know Raven couldn't tolerate too much fish...

The black gunk has been there since I got her and she's been off chicken for a couple of months before today. I didn't know I didn't have to transition if it's wet food

@mrsgreenjeans  for years and still continues to be, the general consensus among vets is to introduce a new food over the course of 7-10 days. It's only recently I am seeing that may not have to be the case, but I don't know enough about it yet so I am on the fence. I went and bought her...

So basically the Natural Balance LID is not a true LID? Also, I am really on the fence about "transitioning" when changing brands of food. The more research I did, the more it seems to be a myth, especially if your cat is having issues. Look how long the myth about not rotating foods/proteins...

If he checked for Stomatitis he didn't mention, but it doesn't seem to match and her gums are getting better. I think they are the least of my worries right now since they are getting better, but did seem to fit in the whole picture. When I raised her dish she was not eating fast because at...

She only had diarrhea when she was on pumpkin and when she was on the other probiotic I tried before the diagnosis. And even then, she was only going once a day and it was more soft than a runny diarrhea - See? Weird!  Also, I am well-aware to give the antibiotic and probiotic a minimum for 2...

Thanks for the reply - The testing was right when she turned 6 months.  As far as food, I have tried both Wellness Kitten brands, regular Wellness, Merrick and a couple different NB's. I looked at Nature's Variety and the other 95% meat wet foods, but they said for kittens they need 2 cans a...

Hi All, This will be long. Sorry in advance and thank you to anyone who reads it in its entirety!! I am really hoping someone has either been through this or knows someone who has. My kitten is now 6 months old and no matter what I do, these symptoms are not going away. I am not happy with my...

No, she is a silver tabby

I also forgot to mention that I  have tried pure pumpkin and it didn't help - First she was on Wellness, then I tried Merrick, then Wellness Core and I just transitioned her on to Natural Balance. She just started it completely last Friday. At one point I worried it was my fault because when I...

I forgot to mention that I do that - Might have been my post lol

My kitten will be 5 months old next week - I did post part of her issue somewhere else on here..  My issue is that she seems  to gag/burp after she eats. This has been pretty much since I brought her home at 8 weeks old. I thought it was from her eating too fast because she eats way too fast...

Ok, now I am in a pickle lol. I have one can left of her Wellness Core kitten and I told the owner of the pet food store almost two weeks  ago that I needed him to order the food. They are out and order won't be in until Tuesday. I will be out of food for Luna tomorrow night. I called Petsmart...

Yeah, it's a tough call as to what is causing this - I hate not knowing and I hate that I am having a hard time fixing it - It could be serious - It could be nothing - It could be an intolerance - it could be something she outgrows on its own - and it could be my fault - The only thing we know...

I did find the food at a store close to me via the website, but money is an issue right now. I am currently looking for work, so I think raw food will have to wait. I really hope there is an easier fix. Perhaps I am not giving it enough time. I'm just really worried and scared. I know where it...
