I still have quite a back stock of Rawz cans from a bulk shopping trip a while back, today I thought I'd try to sneak a little in to my cats usual meals or else I'll never use it up. Added about a tablespoon to the rest of their wet at breakfast and so far so good! Maybe I can keep it in...

That's a really good point! Thanks for sharing your thoughts, very informative. I know I've seen an article or two about peas representing a source of sugar for other toxins to potentially grow from, or something to that effect. I didn't vet the sources at the time so I'm really not sure about...

Ooh, interesting to hear others experiences. I wasn't aware of the correlation you spoke of @LadyLondonderry. So is it fattier = firmer, or leaner = firmer? I suppose this should be a common sense kind of think but I'm vegetarian and really don't know much about meat :lol:

@LadyLondonderry do you remember if when you fed the Feline Natural raw you were able to rehydrate it well? I am fairly happy with the brand, but I do find it continues to look dry after I add the water, at least compared to when I fed Primal.

Granted I may be under-informed, but my thinking regarding pea ingredients is contingent on what the ingredient is doing. Is it standing in for protein? Unacceptable. Is it a starch or binder? I'm still not excited about that personally. Is it just a veggie ingredient? Maybe that would be okay...

Hi 5Cat! I see that you've already decided to go forward with Rawz, but I wanted to chime in with my experience just in case it helps. I'm quite a fan of this brand and primarily fed my two cats Rawz pates, rotating between beef, turkey, chicken, and rabbit depending on what my local shops had...

Definitely, thanks for that reminder Indy. So glad that Kabuto was able to recover. I will be asking the vet for sure about dentals, but just curious to hear others experiences. When did yall have your first dental done?

Sorry I missed all the replies until now. Such juicy info, thank you! I'll provide a little more info about my situation. Both cats eat the same diet, and eat canned wet topped with freeze dried raw only, fed on a schedule two meals per day. As a treat they do get Dr. Elsey's kibble, but hand...

Looking for some advice -- I'm starting a weight loss regimen with my female cat who currently weighs 12.4lbs. She's a total food thief stealing from my other cat. :nono: Curious, how long should I expect it to take to get her back down to 10.5lbs? I'm not looking to rush it, just wondering...

This helps a ton! Thank you all for chiming in. I will go forward with this this list and if the vet gives me the "he's young, don't worry" attitude again I will be switching vets for sure.

Hi all, long time no post :blush: My boy-cat's one year adopt-iversary is next month and I'm looking for advice regarding his next vet visit. When I adopted him I was offered a free initial vet visit with the vet clinic associated with the rescue organization, but I was a little surprised that...

I'm kicking myself right now. Turned my back while cooking and cat jumped up on the table and had at the bowl of pesto. I really don't know how much he ingested before I noticed. Called the animal hospital and I'm monitoring for symptoms. Will call the vet in the morning too. Dang do I feel...

I am recovering from both a back injury and a head injury. Back wants exercise and head wants rest, it's such a balance. I get psyched out a lot from the recovery work but after reading this thread I'm feeling jazzed to get into it. Starting small, going to walk to the market and back this...

Just curious for more info -- besides the two modes you described: bored and relaxed/sleepy what other behaviors does she show? Does she seek out your company? Does she likes petting? Is she a lap cat? A loner? Does she get active around meal time? Or is she free fed? 3.5 years old is hardly...

Aww, lucky boy! Hope he doesn't get drenched. I can't build anything permenant or affix directly to the house, but I still think there's potential for something. A large window box? If I owned, I would enclose the porch, easy peasy. Do you worry about bugs getting inside? We have lots of...
