I mean yeah I heard that but it’d be just the sink which is supposed to be the dirtiest place in a home anyway, I feel like I could disinfect later easily with vinegar and bleach.

I haven’t even looked at home cooked meal tips yet. Only researched raw so far, so I’m not planning to just use meat and bone meal. I just meant that I wouldn’t try to feed my cat cooked bones and would substitute with bone meal. I keep hearing this EZComplete thingy and everyone’s raving about...

You mean because it’s dangerous to consume when it’s cooked? Yeah that’s why I said bone meal.

Thank you all so much for your replies. This forum is shockingly active, I’ve never got so many quick replies on a cat forum ever. I’ll probably start with cooked meat+bone meal and then move on to raw if I can.

Why isn’t there an edit button on this website?

Ok but would it be dangerous to kiss your cat, have it roam around the house wherever he wants, like I can understand it’s harder for cats to get sick but do I have to be change the way I snuggle with my cat and be extra careful after he eats? I honestly have zero fear of death or sickness, so...

Ok but would it Why would it taste disgusting? It’s not a dressing, it’s a soak. You’d run the meat under water as a final step which would get rid of all the vinegar. I always prepare my greens like this and they don’t taste like vinegar ‍♀️

So I really want to switch to raw and can’t wait to buy and prep a healthy meal at home, but I have a serious parasite phobia and I can’t stop worrying. There are articles that say some pathogens come out stronger once frozen and can only be killed off by high heat, not cold. Are we 100% sure...

Hello. So I’ve been thinking about adopting the resident cat in my new apartment complex. She seems like a healthy big girl but I have my worries. Used to be I’d just find a cat living on the streets and bring it home, but since I lost my healthy young boy to hemolytic anemia (caused by felv I...

Thank you very much for your reply. I’m feeling more confident about the transfusion now. I live in Turkey. My vet is a very well known prof and I trust him but he did say he would use a stray cat thay’s been hanging around his clinic as the possible donor and that really irked me. I didn’t ask...

He never eats dry food. I’ve tried different wet foods, same reaction to all, starts eating well then suddenly stops and leaves 2/3 of the food. We did change to organic litter. Thank you so much for your prayers. I’m thinking a blood transfusion is better than not doing anything however my...

My 6 year old baby is dying and I desperately need help. Last year around this time he stopped eating and drinking and started eating litter. Completely lethargic, we thought it was fip. Vet said he was anemic, no infection, no corona virus, nothing wrong with his kidneys, he was perplexed as...

I see. I'll ask my vet about fluid testing. The first place I took him to was a university hospital, they couldn't even get an iv on. I'm not joking, they shaved all of his legs and still couldn't find a vein and sent him home. Never took an x-ray, didn't give him iron shots for three days...

They tested the blood, not the fluid. A positive test result may mean a lot of things but a negative one should only mean one thing. He's never been exposed to corona virus therefore a mutation into fip is impossible, right? He's getting better now, started eating&drinking on his own. He's never...

All the viral tests came back negative. He doesn't even have the coronavirus! What the heck?

Took him to a new vet who took an x-ray said there was in fact liquid in his abdomen. He concurred that it was most probably fip. We're gettting the test results today. The parasite test was negative. I don't understand how this could have happened.

Parasite test came back negative. What else could it be?

Thank you so much for your reply. It lifted my heavy heart. They absolutely did not mention he had anemia, just said his blood levels were very low and it was a viral infection, most probably FIP. I did some reading on litter eating today and found anemia as the cause. So most probably he has a...

Hi everyone. I left my 4 year old male tabby with parents for a month and they told me he started showing weird symptoms 10 days ago. He stopped eating&drinking, became lethargic, and started eating his litter crystals. They took him to the vet, initial examination showed nothing out of the...
