You can get a kennel large enough for her to play with toys and fit a small litterbox and food/water in there. One of those mesh playpens made for small dogs would work fine. I've found them for around $30. I've thought about getting one for my small bird to give him space to fly when I put him...

I know that this isn't normally done with cats and may not work for this situation, but have you thought about kenneling/crating her, or maybe shutting her in the spare bedroom at night? People do this with their puppies/dogs all the time. At least then the 'night crazies' would be contained to...

That was the only version that doesn't have carrageenan. I don't want to feed carrageenan. I wanted to get the meat filet versions, but all they had left was seafood. She's also eaten canned tuna and such before and it's never made her sick. Anyway, there are enough people having problems with...

We were at walmart yesterday, so I picked up a case of friskies filet seafood varieties. Our cat has thrown up four times since starting one can between yesterday evening and this morning. Out of blind hope I thought maybe it was because I was mixing water and the dry kibble with the wet food...

@Furballsmom I just guessed, and google is helpful lol! I would definitely set up the kennel in a quiet area with blankets partially covering it, etc, to make it homey. Those poor cats in the first pic I posted look like they are having a miserable time in jail! I can just imagine the orange...

I apologize if this was already said and I missed it. What was she fed at the rescue/foster? If she didn't have these stomach problems there, that is the food she should be on, right? BUT, on the other hand, there is a possibility that she did have these problems at the foster, and they just...

:flail:Could totally be the case. Maybe it sounds terrible to cat ears!

Thanks, I did know about that. That's why I do watch them carefully. With her, the claws don't ever come out. I'm not obsessively afraid though. I mean, there are ALL kinds of things fear mongering bird owners say to avoid. Bells, for example. I got on a 'no bells' kick because "they can pull...

She is darling. Such a lover. Most useless pest control ever lol! She has zero prey drive, but it works out because I've got a pet lovebird, and the two are best buddies. I'm always around and watching when the bird is out of his cage, but she has never harmed him and they've been together a few...

Every time I start singing, just about anything, loudly, my cat gets really excited. She runs over and starts biting my feet if I'm not paying attention to her. She does anything she can to get my attention, meows, etc. If I pet her while I'm singing, she's happy. She doesn't do this when anyone...

Funny that you say that. I read a review on a site about Fancy Feast, and someone was complaining that it made their cats addicted! They couldn't get them to eat anything but fancy feast, not even fresh chicken or things like that. I wonder what is in it that makes it addictive.

So here is what I have found out so far: Friskies Prime Filet (all flavors) do not contain any carrageenan or guar gum. Only the Prime Filet versions though, other varieties have those two ingredients. I'm also seeing more meat ingredients than grain ingredients, so for price and quality I...

I have looked at the Friskies stuff. Price isn't bad for the size can you get, and the ingredients aren't terrible either. I'm adding them to my list. Thanks!

Thanks for the recommendation! I do have a TSC near me. I'm not sure if there is one where we are moving to, but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. I love TSC, always good products at good prices. I'll check those out.

Hello! New forum member here. The past few days I have discovered the secrets of feline nutrition and why a dry kibble diet only is bad. We have a ten year old cat who is in general very healthy and active. She has been eating Blue grain free indoor. So here is the dilemma. I've looked into...
