Does anyone have experience using Visbiome Pet?

Hello, it's been recommended to me to try VSL3 antibiotic for my kitty's diarrhea. Does anyone know if this is obtainable in Canada?

I live with two 2 year old cats. One of them always wakes me up around 4:30 am as he wants breakfast. He usually does this by sitting next to me on the bed and tapping me on the shoulder. If this doesn't work, he extends a claw or two. Alternatively he will lick my head. If this doesn't seem to...

Any major differences between the various litter storage/disposal units e.g. litter locker, litter genie etc or are they all pretty similar? Thanks...

One of my cats believes that the water in his water bowl is for playing rather than drinking. So he dips his paws in the water and flings it all around the room. In addition to wetting everything in throwing distance the water gets dirty fast. An additional (but less problematic) issue is that...

My cat had about an inch of his tail surgically amputated a few days ago after an accident. The wound is doing well and he is taking regular pain meds. He's wearing a collar. Trouble is that he seems very scared of how the shaved end of his tail looks. Whenever he catches site of it he goes...

thanks...

I have two 2-year old cats (siblings). They eat canned food only and they eat the same food. The one kitty (who also gets a probiotic) gets periodic diarrhea every 4-6 weeks or so - very loose, very smelly, lasts a couple of days usually. All samples have been negative for all types of bugs and...

Hi all, I've been making a ground raw diet with chicken and chicken bones as per recipes from Anne Jablonski and Lisa Pierson. I've also been reading about the benefits of chunks of meat and bone on slowing the eating process and on the teeth. I thought it might be an idea to add in some...

I've started making raw food using bone-in chicken thighs and am using the recipes on the (excellent) sites listed below. There is some variation between these sites re water, vit E and multiglandular supplement. For 2.6 kg meat, one site recommends 2 cups water, another recommends 1 cup. For...

I understand that one should have at least 2 boxes for 2 cats. Is this just for hygiene reasons (ie boxes getting dirtier more quickly) or is there another reason? Reason I'm asking is that I'm not sure if the 2 boxes should be next to each other or in different locations?

A kitten is pooping inside the box but often there is a piece of poop to be found a couple of feet outside the box. Why?

New sweet rambunctious 12 week old in the house. Looking for tips on how to prevent him from: (1) jumping up on some counters and (2) scratching furniture. So far have done the gentle removal from the counter or from the scratching location with gentle redirection to scratching post etc etc...

Just basic questions... Is the ultimate goal of clicker training to get the cat to do something WITHOUT the clicker i.e. with just a verbal cue? So as soon as the verbal cue is working, drop the clicker? Is the other goal to drop the food treat? And if so, will the cat continue to do the...

Hello all. What's the best way to deal with feeding a kitten when nobody is home during the day to provide a midday meal? Was planning on using wet or raw food as the primary food. Leave dry food out for the midday meal???

Hi all. I am confused about feliway and wonder if someone can help me understand... From what I have read, feliway is used to calm a cat e.g. for use in a carrier. But it is also used as a repellent e.g. when sprayed on furniture. How does this work? Also is it a good idea to use feliway on...
