It must be a trait to the Siberian Cat. I'm in TX and while it is hot outside my kittens are indoor only. My thermostat is set to 71 degrees throughout the day and 68 at night. So I do not think the issue is related to the temperature. I am interested in what your vet may have to say. I've...

My cats tore through the sample before I could try it out. My fault, I left it on the counter ran to the store for chicken. They had ripped through the little packet before I got home. Lol. Based on their reaction to the sample packet I guess I'm just going to have to risk it and buy a regular...

I would take him to vet before he develops hepatic lipodosis. I think cats are at a high risk of hepatic lipidosis if they haven't eaten in 48 hours. He may have a virus or some other health issue. I went through the same thing. My cat was obviously hungry but wouldn't eat anything that I put...

We switched to SWheat Scoop because Pet Smart has a sale until 2 Oct. we got 100 lbs. for $50. I find it is a bit dusty but not as bad as Blue Buffalo. My fur babies seem to be okay with it and their breathing isn't as labored as it used to be. We've only had it down for two days and I have...

It said I'm 89... I hope I get to live that long! :)

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a new thread as it is kind of an extension of my previous post regarding breathing issues with my kittens. I was researching different cat litter brands and someone had commented about his cat breathing fast and making whistling noises through nose when...

Glad to hear this picture isn't a typical incision. Makes me feel better about having her spayed. I think she is probably in the beginning stages of a heat cycle because she tries to make a mad dash outside whenever we open the door.

Omg, it looks like it hurts. I'm supposed to take my 6 mo to be spayed in a couple of weeks. This makes me want to cancel the surgery.

Darn, I just saw your post. 128553

You also look at catinfo.org. Dr. Pierson is a long time advocate of raw feeding and she has a wealth of information on other cat related topics, such as vaccinations, litter box issues, etc.

I have a question regarding pressure canned meat. I have been reading in several forums that you should not cook bone-in meat. I made Dr Pierson's raw recipe with ground bone-in chicken thighs. Well because I'm not sure what is going on with my male kitten and my vet scared me off feeding raw I...

I plan on cooking pieces of chunked chicken to see how they like it. I'm hoping to be able to go back to raw because I just received 24lbs of ground whole rabbit and cannot use the premixed supplements since the bones, organs, etc are in the meat. I'd like to eventually get them started on the...

My understanding is that Dr. Pierson's recipe is great for cats with IBD but not for CKD due to amount of phosphorous? But I also read on Dr. Beckers website that cats with gastrointestinal issues should not eat bones, so I'm a little confused. DH and I are thinking about scheduling a...

You should start her on a probiotic. Is she taking Clavamox? My vet gave me a prescription of Proviable DC because the antibiotic will kill all of the bacteria (both good and bad) and kitty's need good bacteria. You can get the Proviable a lot cheaper thru Chewy or Amazon, but given the...
