I've got three kitties from the same litter that are now about 2.5 yrs old. Two males and a female that all were neutered at 15 weeks old and are indoor cats. The girl Peanut is by far the smallest and has never appreciated rough play like her brothers do. Peanut and her brother Red used to get...

My kitties really don't play much with toys that are just left out for them. We have to have special play time where I play with them. All three kitties have a slightly different style of play and they have to be "in the mood". I think it helps if the toys are put away until you get them out to...

Thanks. I tried combining the zofran with the probiotic in the gelcap, although I wait to add the zofran until right before I pill rather than prepping a bunch ahead of time. So far so good. Now I am trying to add some of the b-vitamin and dividing one of them into 20 doses...which is not easy...

I recently bought a big bag of #3 gelatin capsules to downsize human probiotics/vitamins and encapsulate bad tasting pills. I tried it last night with the cat's tiny ondansetron and it did seem easier to hold and I think it tasted better to her also. Is there any issue with the gelatin caps...

Here's my earlier post with more details if necessary. Basically my IBD kitty had been taking the Vet's Best Digestive Aid pill that contains psyllium and slippery elm every day for months. Since her last bad episode (detailed in other post) she refuses the pill. I have been giving her...

Thanks for the tips guys. I think I have read every article on http://www.ibdkitties.net/ multiple times over the past few months, plus every article, post, and video on ibd, raw food, home-cooked, transitioning, supplements, etc. It is overwhelming! I am not sure why the vet is opposed to the...

All three kitties are indoor pets almost 2 years old from the same litter. Their mom is a (now fixed) feral that lives outside. Of the three kitties, Tubby is the only one that has never really had any issues at all. Both Red and Peanut had problems with diarrhea caused by parasites as kittens...

I started posting here back in November about my cat Peanut's long term issues with vomiting. That issue is still not resolved with no clear diagnosis and is a roller coaster ride for sure. She seemed to be doing better with some dietary changes. I wanted to go raw eventually, but can't get the...

I thought of one other feature that is invaluable for shooting basically anything that moves...burst mode. That is when you hold down the shutter and it fires of a sequence of pictures rapidly. I almost always use 5.5 frames per second with continual autofocus, but it also has 12 frames per...

I second the recommendation for a rotating and tilting LCD screen, you can get much more interesting angled shots without contorting your body! That along with a good feel in the hand, and a good versatile lens are most important to me. I prefer what they call "pro-sumer" cameras. More than a...

@LDG, so the not feeding raw while still feeding kibble is a myth? Is that even for kitties with health issues like IBD? I have been trying without much luck to get my kitties off from kibble and onto canned and home-cooked, with the hope to then work towards raw. It has not been going well...

This is my first post on the feral board. I'm no expert but just wanted to share what I have been doing so far, and how I would change it in the future. One feral cat Jess got got me started on this venture a couple of years ago, and I soon discovered there were many ferals in the neighborhood...
