Hello: Your 3 boys sound like my 3 girls. As a matter of fact my Button is a black short hair like your Donatello. She is also the one that has the attitude towards the new stray that decided to stay, Lucky Kitty. It has been 9 months and Maggie my Tortie and the Alpha is doing much better with...

Guess its just you and me. Anyway, my two residents still like to push their weight around but LK continues to wait her turn to eat and make a large half circle when walking around Button and Maggie. She apparently is happy enough to stay because I let her out when she wants, but she always...

I have been doing a lot of research on dry cat food and what I have learned is to NOT feed dry cat food for several reasons. First off, dry cat food adds pounds to cats, dry cat food is coated with an ingredient that cats love so they almost always overeat especially if they are free fed, also...

It has been 5 days on the 4 feliways and there has only been 2 confrontations. I believe these pheromones are helpful. Can't say they are the panacea to the introduction issues but I do believe they help. Hoping their confrontations will continue to diminish. My 2 residents just will not fully...

Great News. My kitties love FF classic. I grabbed a FF Gourmet Classic by mistake and they wouldn't touch that, but they like 4 flavors of FF Classics. Will try some of the other classic flavors . Just read an article about not feeding cats fish flavored wet food due to all the mercury and...

I got my Feliways today so plugged them in this morning. Will monitor their behavior for the next few days and let everyone know how it has helped. It may be both the Feliway and getting use to each other that has helped them get along better. Doomsdave has some very important and sensible takes...

I changed avatars. This is my precious Maggie.We have had her 10 years and she and Buttons have been through a lot with my husband and me. Our kitties get an exam and vaccinated every year and they remain healthy so I am not overly concerned about changing their food. I think what is most...

I bought several varieties of FF Classics and some they liked and some not so much. They love the chicken feast.:yess: I will continue to feed the Classics and give Nutro a try after they get accustomed to FF Classics. If I try new things too much, they get so they don't eat anything. Thanks to...

rubysmama, I will gladly let you know how things improve. I had them for 8 weeks as they last 4 weeks I had 2 sets and when I let them run out, sensitivity started up. I should be receiving them any day. It may take a couple days for the plug ins to start working again but will keep you posted...

Just wanted to share what I discovered. I had 4 Feliway plug ins. One in the living room, one in the dining room, one in the entrance, and one in the bedroom. The 3 kitties seemed to be down to one mild confrontation a week. I checked the Feliways and they were almost empty so I thought I would...

LOL:flail::flail:What we don't do for our felines. My Maggie (I have a Maggie too) eats breakfast fine, but come lunch, she follows me around and talks incessantly until I pick her up and 'sit' with her for at least a half an hour. Then she can sit by herself and nap the rest of the...

Perhaps I need to reconsider Friskies. They do very well, coats are silky and shiny, poop is healthy and regular, firm and of good color, they drink plenty of fresh water every day, plenty of energy, and they are happy and friendly. I brush them frequently so not a lot of hair ball throw up...

My local market doesn't carry a big variety of cat food but plan to go to PetSmart on Tuesday. Plan buying some FF Classic. I am not familiar with soulistics. Hope she is getting better.

OK I will check PetSmart. We also have a Tractor Supply in Greeley. Murdochs didn't have the FF Classic or Beyond. That is where I got the Tiki and Organic Earth Farm. Have also tried Stella and Chewy. No go there either. :(

My local market didn't have either one. They had FF Gourmet and nothing Beyond. Next time I get to Petco or PetSmart I will look for them.Tiki was one that I tried and they just licked the juice. For some reason they don't take to the shreds, minced, or filets. The just seem to care for the...

what about those that just like to lick the gravy and or juices off the pate and leave dried chunks of pate. My Maggie is very very bad about doing that. I have tried to save 'her' food for her but, no gravy....no dice. They just are not getting into new foods. Maybe too set in their ways......9...

Ahhh Galaxy Girl, I am so sorry about your Sr kitty. Gives me a lump in my throat. I have raised both my resident kitties on both wet and dry and then I read the same thing you mentioned that dry causes age issues so I began feeding more and more wet food. I had always believed Friskies to be a...

I am not necessarily on a budget, but I am somewhat frugal. I am of that generation.:dunno: Anyway changing brands seem to be a bigger problem. They sniff a new wet brand and look at me like 'you expect me to eat that?' And then they start whining. Especially Maggie. Lucky Kitty ate the Whole...

Very interesting!!!! I guess we all have picky eaters.:crazy: So be it. I do feed the leftovers to the stays that come around. Thats how I got the Big Tiger Tom that I had neutered last week end. I will continue to try some of the ideas anyway.:) Unfortunately, they don't take kindly to new...

Thanks for all the great ideas. I will try them all to see which ones work. One of the problems I have is that I lost my sense of smell (and taste) when I was hit by a semi truck (he ran a stop sign) 5 years ago. No, I don't taste their food :lol: but I would smell it if I could. I would warm...
