    Have You Ever Had A Cat With Acne Around Its Whiskers?

    When I asked around about Harry's chin, thoughts were that it was acne, but I was advised to have the vet examine as there are other conditions that can looks similar. I am new to this all so I really cannot advise. In the Facebook thread, there was a pic of a cat with numerous sores on her...

    Have You Ever Had A Cat With Acne Around Its Whiskers?

    Bits cut and pasted from Facebook Please please keep in mind, I am listing what people have said they tried/used. I have no idea what are truly safe for a cat or what must be done with veternary supervision (other than the shot). I look at many of these and I would have no idea how they are...

    Have You Ever Had A Cat With Acne Around Its Whiskers?

    I'm in a Facebook group IBDKitties due to my boy Han and his digestive system. Just yesterday there was a post thread relating to kitty acne. The original poster's cat broke open his chin. I also remember seeing someone who's cat had facial acne. Anyhow, you might be able to request entering...

    We Need To Switch To Dry Food, Unsure Where To Start. Desperate For Advice!

    Many report good things about fortiflora. For my cats (two at the time), it did not make the food more appealing which was a surprise. Since then, I have read a lot of writings about probiotics being added and there are many that feel fortiflora does not contain a wide enough variety of bacteria...

    We Need To Switch To Dry Food, Unsure Where To Start. Desperate For Advice!

    Hi, So I have a boy kitty, Han, who has some digestive issues. I'll be watching the overall discussion. Anyhow, Han has been on an all wet diet for a month+ now and I am hoping to add a good dry food eventually. A dry food I came across that seems very intriguing to me is a newer brand called...

    Torbie vs. Tortie?

    Sorry for bringing an old thread back to life, but I would love input and this looks like a great thread for my question. We adopted Harry a week ago today. Yes, Harry is a he, which is why I am very curious about whether he is a torbie or is he a tabby. I would love your input. :)
