    CKD diagnosis - what to expect

    So I’m creating a new thread for those of you with experience handling CKD to share your thoughts or experience with me. My 11 year old cat Meffy was diagnosed with late stage CKD on Sunday evening. The vet has started with IV drips treatment and although she’s looking better than she did on...

    Eating very little after vomiting

    Hi guys. It’s been a while since I posted. Need your advice on this issue I’m currently facing. My 11 year old cat Meffy vomited brownish liquid on Thursday evening when I came home from work. She continued until the liquid was clear then stopped. After that, I decided to give her a bit of her...

    Mixing kibbles

    I feed my cats RC Indoors. I know it isn’t grain free but I have another brand of grain free food to mix with the RC. I don’t intend to go all grain free because there’s always leftovers of the grain free kibbles. Is it okay to feed them a mixed kibbles like this for long term?

    Royal Canin Indoor - different colour than before

    For those who feed RC regularly, have you noticed their recent batches look paler than usual? I don’t have a picture to compare but when I refilled our remaining stock with a new package 3 days ago, I noticed the differences in colour. The old batch was a darker brown while the new batch looked...

    Does your cat cover their poop/pee?

    Meffy is very careful so she would cover it fully to a mound. Meimey is strange. She would dig and dig and dig but doesn’t cover up after doing her business. Maybe she thinks she dug a very deep hole 🤣 Yeah, so sometimes the poo is all exposed if I don’t check to cover it for her. It’s been like...

    Non Recognition again

    Oh wow…never thought I’ll go through this yet again. Meffy got something stuck on her teeth yesterday so I had to take her to the vet to get it removed. Back from the vet after 1 hour, when we arrived home my other cat Meimey avoided Meffy, which is normal. Meffy keeps trying to go to her but...

    Teary eyes after Haws recovered

    Meffy had Haws Syndrome last month, which I believe she got it from my other cat. During her haws period, she had brownish/reddish tears that I have to wipe 2-3 times a day. It’s been over a month, her haws are back to normal. But I still see the tears. The vet didn’t give me any treatment and...

    Both cats now showing Haws syndrome

    I’m stressed out now. I don’t see any soft poops going on but they seem to be eating lesser than usual. It started with Meimey 3 weeks ago when she had soft stools. After deworming and some boiled chicken the stools have been normal for about 15 days now. Her haws are still up. Meffy’s started...

    Your cat’s reaction to flea control?

    How do your cats react to flea control being put on them? The moment mine see me reaching into the drawer to pull out a familiar foil packet, they both run! It’s not the terrified/scared kind of run. More like a “Ewww not that again!!” kind of run. Meffy is especially dramatic because she would...

    Bene Bac Plus Gel

    I’ve read a lot about this product and from the reviews on Amazon it seems to be a good probiotic. But most of these reviews are about bunnies, guinea pigs or foster kittens. Has anyone fed this to adult cats? How do they react to the taste? It is quite expensive so I don’t want to end up...

    Stool texture

    I posted in a previous thread that my cat was having softer stools than usual. Last Thurday I noticed her stools looked like soft serve. I fed her some boiled chicken with pumpkin for 2 days (along with her usual dry food) which improved the stool to look like a log. I took her to the vet on...

    Haws Syndrome?

    On Friday I noticed my cat Meimey looking a bit strange and realized it was her third eyelids that was partly covering her eyes. I looked up found that it was Haws Syndrome. She had bit of soft poop since Friday. Since the vets are closed due to the holidays, I gave her some boiled chicken with...

    Cat Aggressive after vet visit

    Today I took my cat Meffy to the vet for her annual shots. I took her to a different vet nearer to my house since it’s just for shots. When the vet was taking her temperature, Meffy lashed out at her. I’ve never seen her do this for the past 9 years during her annual shots at other vets. When...

    Food for elder cats?

    My cats are 9 and 7. I’ve been feeding them Royal Canin Indoor since they were 1 year old in addition to wet food (mix brands but Fancy Feast being main) daily. I’m wondering if I should start changing to RC Indoor 7+ to suit their dietary needs. They’re both healthy. The older one has always...

    Is it hyperesthesia?

    Hi again. So I recently noticed my 7 year old cat Meimey is acting strange. She would start running about then looking around like something is chasing her and her tail/back a few times. When this happens, she just looks startled with dilated pupils and keeps going from one room to another until...

    Sudden redirected aggression

    Yesterday when I came home from work I saw a cat about 10 feet away from my door. She’s the cat who got into my house last year and created a havoc to my cats. I believe she once lived at my apartment with the previous tenant and probably given to someone else to care for her now. I ignored her...

    Do you take your cats for a walk?

    The leash isn’t possible. I want to use the bubble backpack to take them outside. Is it a good idea?

    How much shedding is normal?

    I live in the tropics so it is always warm here. Both my cats are short haired. One of them sheds more than the other. Like there’s always been loose fur on her coat and everytime I pet her, I can also pull out the loose fur easily. It has always been like this for as long as I can remember but...

    Adding water to wet food

    I started doing this recently. I would add 1-2 tablespoon of water to mix into the wet food just to increase their hydration. Anyone else does this?

    Is fish really bad?

    I notice most forums here discuss about feeding other meats aside from fish to cats. Is fish bad? Where I’m from, it’s normal to feed fish to cats. Even the cat foods sold here are mostly tuna, mackerel, salmon....mostly fish with only a small portion of chicken or turkey. Of course there are...
