    Stress To The Moon

    I had to email my landlords and give them a time frame so they know when a strange car is on their property. Also, so they won’t let their dog out to scare the crap out of my friend. Who wants confirmation the dog won’t attack if it is out by accident. So, I have to send a second email to my...

    Overnight Travel & Cat W Kidney Disease & Feeding

    Constipated

    1 Bruce 1 is right. Small meals. That’s what I do. And I add water to the wet food. It started in January and now it’s May, a long process. My cat didn’t get regular overnight. She only had one bad episode of constipation. Lasted about 5 days. That’s when I knew something was wrong. She had lost...

    Constipated

    Sorry, it’s really agonizing knowing your cat can’t have a bowel movement. I never thought I’d be so obsessed with cat poop but here I am. 2 days and still no movement. Hopefully he’s drinking water. I did do Sub Q for about 3 weeks too. That helped to rehydrate the digestive tract. But when I...

    Constipated

    Sorry. I know very well the constipation illness. I gave my cat hairball gel and it took about a day to work. Then she’d be constipated for 2 days and I’d give the gel. Finally I gave her cat grass and since then she’s been regular. Not sure when you gave it to your cat. But too much might...

    Overnight Travel & Cat W Kidney Disease & Feeding

    My cats always been on wet but I’d give her dental bites which are crunchy. Vet told me to stop them, so I did. Vet was happy to know I only fed wet and told me to continue. For all I know, regardless of what I put out, she’ll strike until I return. My absence might upset her. She’s done that...

    Overnight Travel & Cat W Kidney Disease & Feeding

    The cautionary tale scared the crap out of me.... “Some automatic feeders are refrigerated so you can safely keep wet foods in them for several days if needed. Some types of food may dry out a little by the time of serving but it’s not likely to spoil, i.e. bacteria will have a hard time...

    Overnight Travel & Cat W Kidney Disease & Feeding

    Thanks! Refrigerated auto feeders??? Never knew. I’m trying to think how this will work. At the most, she goes from 8 or 9 pm until 5 am without food. But then it’s about every 4-5 hours. Around 11 am and 6 pm being the big meals. So she’d need at least 3 meals while I’m gone. I’m going to...

    Cat Stinks

    I had vet check her teeth in February and they are fine. But he warned against continuing the dental crunches since she’s having kidney issues. He said they would dehydrate her more. I gave her a few dental crunches a week which kept her breath fine. Now.... holy apostles her breath stinks bad...
