    Lard?

    Hi, consider hand feeding. It was how I kept weight on my cat when he was ill. My vet at the time recommended using a popsicle stick and pate style food, and putting him up on the kitchen counter to make things easier (ie; reaching his mouth) during feedings. Also, there might be something in...

    Featured How to smooth transition when a family member leaves?

    Hi Hopefully there's an article of clothing and a blanket that your mom used regularly that she would be willing to leave behind, so that the cats especially Snow have it/them to lie on and snuggle into. Also, try Cat Music - it can be surprisingly effective. There are a lot of varieties, so if...

    Tooth resorption

    Hi, can you, or do you, weigh her at home? Depending on which source is used for information, it's a little more calories daily than recommended (35 calories per pound to maintain), but every cat is different :)

    What's For Dinner? - 2024

    How's your "new" kitchen setup working out? Dinner is spiral squash, and chicken with heart-healthy cream of chicken soup (with very little liquid) for a sauce with mushrooms and peas.

    Cat severely lethargic but vet can’t figure out anything physically wrong

    Hi, is he an indoor only cat? Could he have eaten something he shouldn't have, even though nothing showed in blood tests? If outdoor, could he have gotten injured (ie; tying to the neurological idea)? Are you handfeeding him as much as you can?

    My cats wet food only reviews

    A follow-up, Churu has become more acceptable for Captain, and Weruva is ok too. He decided he liked an older version of Forza10, and fortunately he's also liking their new version.

    Vital Essentials freeze dried raw

    Have you tried Northwest Naturals? The bag states it's 98% chicken, organs and bone. I'm not seeing anything on their website regarding bone so I sent in a communication with them, although it's been mentioned on this site that their bone content is lower than S&C (10%) and Primal, with NWN at...

    A cat-style ban game

    Captain would ban water in any form, other than in the water bowl which is the only place it belongs as far as he is concerned.

    Excessive pooping

    Does he go outside and maybe picked up worms? Is he at risk of getting scalded from the constant poop - could you help clean him?

    Excessive pooping

    Hi Has your vet talked about B12, and/or a pre- and pro-biotic?

    Advice on difficult/picky young new cat

    This is reminding me of a couple of other cats on this site who literally won't eat unless their human stays with them. It got me thinking...I'm going to take a shot and what if, rather than staying with her while she eats, you tried getting a purr "toy" (some even have heartbeats too), and set...

    Advice on difficult/picky young new cat

    Regarding food, what about toppers other than fortiflora, such as Inaba Churu - I put some directly on Captain's food, or some of the pouch foods? Would your husband be willing to try the big tub that I posted for you above? It is less than cutting a hole in a door, which is maybe what he is...

    Does his tooth look bad?

    I was literally just here and going to say, it doesn't look all that good but I'm not a vet. Maybe there's something, even after you're home and maybe have an appetite stimulant? in the many options listed that may help remind him that food is good; Any Good Tips To Get Your Cats To Eat?

    Advice on difficult/picky young new cat

    Hi Have you tried a slow transition, using the shreds to help her become accustomed to new foods? You might have to try a microchip feeder, using the shreds. Would she be more willing to use something like this, by entering through a catflap installed in the side of a very large tub? This is...

    Truly fragrance free urine cleaner

    No, although the Bissell product's fragrance is milder than Nature's Miracle and also doesn't last very long. I don't know what your weather is like, but you could do the necessary cleaning and then set everything out in the sun (as long as it's not so hot that it'll warp plastic). The sun will...
