    9yo Diagnosed W/kidney Disease

    I don't believe so. When they called, they were concerned with "her high numbers." I know they also mentioned the high SDMA, and wanted to switch her diet. The vet didn't say she was concerned because of the high creatinine, but thank you for pointing that out! I'll ask when I bring her in for...

    9yo Diagnosed W/kidney Disease

    I'm so sorry to hear about your cat! You gave her a wonderful home. Just an update, it seems I might've jinxed myself. Diana is not showing as much interest in the canned food--I don't blame her, she's used to eating a variety of flavors! I've ordered a Royal Canin prescription food to mix...

    9yo Diagnosed W/kidney Disease

    Hi all! It’s been a while since I’ve posted here (college and exams got in the way) but I remembered how wonderful this community is and thought I’d post my questions here. A couple weeks ago, we brought in our cats for their senior checkups. Two of three were healthy, but one, Diana, was...

    Draco's Nano Reef Journal

    I had no idea fish could bite so hard! It's been a while since I've last posted, and I know I'm repeating myself, but your tank is so pretty! I'm curious, is there a big difference having a saltwater tank vs a freshwater, money-wise?

    Vet's Best Hairball Relief - Interesting observation

    When I saw this post, that scared me. It's not unusual to find a hairball or small throw up 2-3 times a week. I definitely want to find something that will help stop this, because I had no idea that it could cause scarring and that badly!

    Tooth Resorption

    Yes, that does, thank you! I'm glad I asked about this here instead of relying on what the vet said.

    Tooth Resorption

    Thank you both for replying! Honey is 5.5 years old. She's always been super healthy, and hasn't shown any discomfort when eating her wet food (but now that I know how her mouth is, she may just be hiding it). It sounds like it should be done as soon as possible. It was odd, because the vet...

    Tooth Resorption

    This is my first time hearing/dealing with this. We took in two of our cats to the vet today to get their rabies shot and a general wellness check. When the vet opened up Honey's mouth, she noticed she was missing a tooth. Ends up one has been resorped (is that the right word?) and another one...

    Great Life dry vs TotW dry

    Thank you both for replying! It ends up that the Great Life food isn't too popular here, so I will be exchanging it. Does anyone have any recommendations for other dry foods? I used to feed EVO before switching to TotW and then to wet. I stopped feeding EVO due to the recalls that happened last...

    Great Life dry vs TotW dry

    I posted a while back about switching my cats to an all-wet diet, but now I have a question on dry food. My three cats are still eating canned food, but I like to have a back up dry food just in case, or as a small midday snack. Currently I'm giving them Taste of the Wild (the green bag, I...

    My cat eats hair bands, plastic, string, rubber, ect.....

    I have a very curious cat, and a few years ago she got into some yarn from my sister's knitting. We had to take her to the vet that same day, thankfully we got there in time, or the outcome could have been worse. I would definitely try to hide string, hair bands, and anything else like that. You...

    Draco's Nano Reef Journal

    I've been so busy I haven't been able to see this thread for a while. Your tank looks wonderful! So much color! You're seriously making me want to have fish again

    Draco's Nano Reef Journal

    I just looked through this thread today, your tank is so cool! I've always wanted to have a saltwater tank, but I have no idea if I'd be able to do it successfully. I love your pictures! Especially the snail one, it looks like ten snails each invited ten other snails!

    Question of the Day

    When I was 13, we went to pick up my first two kittens. They were my Christmas present that year! They're definitely the best present ever. It was a long drive and I was so impatient to see them     They're still here with me, along with another cat!

    Soy Lecithin vs Egg Lecithin?

    I don't want to risk anything. The egg lecithin has been ordered! Thank you again for the help! I'm glad I found out now rather than later.
