I agree with mixing, at least for awhile. The rehydrated freeze-dried food is a bit of a different experience from most food, and you know cats - This is not my food, what is this? I can't eat this, it's different! My cat loves Stella and Chewy freeze dried rehydrated, but I get that the...

I might want a second opinion about the extraction or another treatment if my cat had constant tooth pain, but I'm a feline dental health zealot. Maybe someone more specialized would have the skill to make it work. I realize you don't want to harm (or worse) your cat, but constant tooth pain...

I go by 20 calories per pound of cat per day for weight maintenance. That has maintained Ailish for 6 years at about 9lbs. When I started she was about two and she is now turning 8 on August 1, her guesstimated birthday. She does not get treats. We live in a large farmhouse so she gets...

I tried the chicken and scallop with my cat and your are right, it reeks to high heaven. I warn people who want to give her some not to let it get on anything. Probably for that very reason she goes ape whenever she sees me get one out for her. I love to feed it to her because she likes it so...

I fed wet Farmina to my cat for years and she liked it. Then it seemed like they changed something maybe a year ago (besides the can shape) and I started not liking what I saw when I opened the can. It was just different, and not in a way I was comfortable with. So I quit getting it for...

Agree completely. When I got my cat home, 1 year old and a mother, she hid behind furniture for two months. I just left her there and talked to her, provided food water and litter, which she used no problem. Eventually she came out and started slaughtering mice. She's been quite the happy...

We live on a farm and one day around Christmas this teenaged (based on size and appearance) intact male showed up. He was quite friendly and looked to be in very good shape, but our barn cat wanted done of it. Mom, get this guy out of here, I wasn't consulted. My sister did everything she...

Yeah, but cats would have to come on here every week to change their reviews. Merrick Limited Ingredient Duck - love it, I've eaten every bit of it whenever she feeds it to me for five years now! Merrick Limited Ingredient Duck - the Devil's own elixir, I won't touch it. I can't believe she...

My cat is indoor only and I get her vaccinated once every three years per PA law. I don't get it because of the law, I get it because I don't want me, my cat, or anyone she comes into contact with to get rabies. We live in the country and not only are we known to get a bat in the house from...

This can be my cat. I decided from the beginning she would not be a picky eater. She is generally a good eater and right from the start she got lots of variety. She has three wet meals and a dry meal, the dry at night with the automatic feeder. I put a meal down and it's for her to eat or...

I am so sorry for everyone who lost a cat for any reason. However, I'm seeing nothing here that indicates that it was the Convenia that made them gravely ill. Generally, a cat given an antibiotic has a problem to begin with. Maybe it needs an antibiotic and maybe the Convenia antibiotic will...

Feed her by calories not hands full, or cans full, or anythings full. I follow the 20 calories per pound per day rule and my cat has maintained the same weight for 7 years now.

20 calories per pound per day of wet has maintained my cat at 9lbs for 6 years. Very few treats. She doesn't seem overly hungry, but generally eats all her food before the next meal.

My cat varies from baseball sized clumps to golf balls. Of course, the golf balls used to worry me, but then I realized that they generally reverted back to baseballs. And then back to golf balls. She's healthy as of Saturday, so I just figure it's normal variation.

My cat was taken in for dental work and had bloodwork for anesthesia. Her glucose was extremely high and the vet said, same as you were told, that this can be caused by stress. Indeed, recently she went for a well cat check-up and her glucose was completely normal. Not saying this is the case...

Just a thought, but have one of these vets look at his teeth. It isn't necessarily his whole problem, but my cat, a very good eater, suddenly went off all food. Took her to the vet and got that appetite helper stuff (starts with an M). Slowly she started to eat. Several weeks later she was...

As I say to my cat when I brush her - hair in the brush, not in the stomach. I brush Ailish almost every day and get very few hairballs or vomiting. Plus, she likes it and asks to be brushed. If she likes it, that's good enough for me.

I would talk to the vet. You're basically saying she's allergic to food, which sounds like a pretty big problem.

Time is your friend! My cat, about a year old at the time, hid for 2 months. When I brought her home and opened the carrier she bolted behind a piece of furniture. I put a litter box and feeding area in that room. I talked to her when I was in there. She started coming out at night to eat...

My cat, who wouldn't eat people food if she were starving, does seem to be attracted to cream. I'm lactose intolerant myself, so I never drink milk, but I will from time to time have fruit in cream. It's the only human food she has ever expressed an interest in, so I let her have a sniff and...
