Is there an emergency clinic open that you could call? I've often heard them giving people free advice over the phone when I've been there (more often than I'd like).

Maybe try offering her wet food too, if you don't already. This can help with constipation.

I love catios. My local humane society has a huge one and I think it's really nice looking.

I second the permanent separation. Sometimes it's just not worth it. Your elderly cat may not want to deal with this.

I agree about the vet. IME this is often related to food allergies or other digestive tract problems, but only a vet will be able to tell for sure.

Hmmm... I'll check Global Pet Foods and Critter Jungle. They tend to carry more specialized products.

Rafaela Puff chews a lot. I feel your frustration. Petstages makes a worm (she loves it), a daisy (round yellow ring with felt leaf - loves tossing and chewing it - only when supervised as she loves the fabric leaf a little too much, but it helps her toss it with her back feet), a red round...

They're gorgeous! I agree about neutering them. Why invite trouble?

Whatever this cat is, it's gorgeous! :catlove:

Welcome to the forums! I think you'll like it here. I'm relatively new too. I love your cats' names, especially Octavia. I'd start over with vaccinations if the clinic has no record. You can also get them to clip their nails and show you how. Since you have a male and a female, I'd also...

I'm sorry. As promised, I've tried tonight to photograph Holly's kitten cap, to no avail. At least with my phone, it seems unphotographable.

@Azazel No one asked you to take a statement back nor to endorse Purina Pro Plan, merely to let others express their different experiences than yours. My cat's former problems would take much to much time to detail; they span half a decade. This food is the only thing that fixed her. I...

@Azazel It doesn’t “appear” that it saved her life - her vets agree, it did. She couldn’t tolerate any protein & had stopped tolerating hydrolyzed protein. She was almost put down, because she weighed less than half what she should. Tests, scans, x-rays, etc. revealed nothing...
