I just wanted to chime in. I had my cat on a high quality raw food in combo with some canned and he still developed struvite crystals. Every time I’ve asked about it I have been given lectures about feeding kibble. Which I never did! There are other factors for developing crystals, I think...
I don’t have much advice as I am also struggling with urinary issues with one of my kitties and at a loss as to what to do about it. But I just wanted to wish you well and hope that he feels better. I’m sorry you are both going through this and hope he is soon cured!
Stress is probably the biggest issue here. We live in a small space and my old lady cat hates Orangey and has been really on his case lately. I’ve put her on cbd oil to try to calm her down a little, as well as using some feliway diffusers and spray. It has improved a little bit but we have...
Orangey eats Small Batch a local commercial raw food. I had another cat who has constipation issues on this food, but Orangey has always been fine with it. I really wish I could have Rad Cat back, that was just the perfect food for my kitties and I miss it every day. From what I understand, I...
Every vet I speak to seems to be adamantly against raw feeding. I’m willing to feed my cats whatever they need to make them healthy, I just always thought raw was the healthiest. Everything I google about struvite crystals recommends a raw or canned diet, which I already do. I feel like...
I noticed my sweet orange tabby straining to urinate. I brought him to the emergency vet, fearing a blockage. Thankfully he wasn’t blocked, so I scheduled him for our regular vet to determine what the issue was, and it was determined that he is seriously constipated and has struvite crystals...
I like to tell my cats all the time that they’re “nice kitties.” For some reason they just love to hear that they are nice kitties and I love to remind them every chance I get!
Thanks for all the replies, guys! I know that Zsa Zsa will be okay, its just so hard knowing the product that kept her so healthy for so long is gone. Diet changes are hard on a 13 year old cat! I will definitely be donating to the Rad Cat GoFundMe! I'm so grateful of the 4 amazing years...
I know I’m late to this conversation, but what am I going to do? I have a 13 year old cat who has been generally unhealthy, and throws up all the time. Vets haven’t found anything wrong with her, she’s just a runty cat. She’s done so well on radcat for the last 4 years. I’m devastated what...
Sometimes I look at Zsa Zsa and she just looks so old. Then I catch her playing with a hair tie and I see the little kitten she used to be. She's such a wonderful cat, I wonder how I got so lucky to have such a wonderful friend!
