    IBD Question about elimination diet

    I've had her on Tiki Cat tuna food since last posting. (There was a brief flirtation with other tuna varieties, but calamari makes her barf every single time, interestingly) Her poops very very very very gradually normalized, and are now fine. She still pulls fur every once in a while, but not...

    Cat Neuter @ Low Cost gone wrong

    If you have paypal, I'll donate for your cat to go to the closer Vet for a consult, he may just need a little mirtazipine to get him going again. At my vet the visit plus meds might be 100 or 200$. Not sure what your vet would charge, but I'm up for it if it's something similar to that. Hate to...

    Cat Neuter @ Low Cost gone wrong

    I would tell her that if the vet euthanizes without your approval, it's going all over social media.

    Reasons for hair pulling

    13 weeks, good gravy, that's a long time! When I'm doing food allergy/sensitivity testing on myself I only have to trial for a few days to see a change. (I'm allergic to pretty much everything under the sun, lol) She was outside before, so wouldn't have been affected by laundry soap, or kitty...

    Cat Neuter @ Low Cost gone wrong

    In my area, anyway, they say, 'if it's an emergency, we recommend this emergency vet hospital'

    Reasons for hair pulling

    Cat initially diagnosed with IBD but no longer showing any symptoms. Before vomiting started she lost a lot of hair. I thought it must be a flea allergy and brought her inside to recover. She started growing hair back but for the past month or so will still pull it out in clumps. Along her...

    Cat Neuter @ Low Cost gone wrong

    Similar happened to me. Brought in 10 strays and every one came back a mess. I spent 800$ getting them fixed up at a real vet. Pawing at the mouth, he may have irritation from the oxygen? Is he eating OK? Going to the bathroom? Did he sleep? Hope he's better today!!

    Digestive Issues From Increased Fat Consumption?

    Thank you - they did a blood test at the emergency vet, and said she doesn't have pancreatitis, but maybe the test was off or something. I'll check the symptoms and see if they match her. :) Good idea - she really does love the boiled chicken + broth! :)

    Digestive Issues From Increased Fat Consumption?

    If it's been a long time since she ate, and you gave her a lot, she may have bolted it and then thrown up because she ate so fast. Can you try feeding her more frequently, in smaller amounts?

    Digestive Issues From Increased Fat Consumption?

    I'm sorry your kitty is having that issue, poor thing! Mine only regurgitated once, after that it was straight vomit and then the emergency vet! Now, she just acts like she doesn't feel well after eating anything rich - and just for a few hours, and then she's fine again. It's puzzling!

    Digestive Issues From Increased Fat Consumption?

    When I just give her plain chicken breast with some clear broth she is fine, but if it's the super cooked-down broth made from skin and so on that's all thick, she doesn't feel good. When I cook her a chicken, I first cook the chicken in my pressure cooker and pull off the meat - then I cook the...

    Digestive Issues From Increased Fat Consumption?

    No, I'm just trying to figure out what's causing my cat's GI distress. Vet thought IBD - but in trying different foods (baseline being plain boiled chicken breast in its own water) it seems to be less about the kind of food and more about the fat content of the food. For example, plain boiled...

    Digestive Issues From Increased Fat Consumption?

    Are there any digestive issues that cause temporary (a few hours) discomfort when the cat eats a meal with more fat in it?
