A few hours ago I took my cat to the clinic to get his blood drawn by a vet tech as a follow up from a previous test a couple weeks ago. He’s been his normal, vibrant self all this time, but I noticed about an hour after getting his blood drawn, he became very lethargic. He was sleeping for...
My cat has had some issues with his back paws, specifically his nails on his back left paw (with some inflammation on a right back paw nail too). Long story short, I think it's been going on for over 18 months but I did not realize until a few months ago when I could actually see a brown color...
I have a dilemma that I’m seeking advice on, so I appreciate any contributions.
I have two 1 yr, 7 month old cats who have been eating raw food for a year now. I completely removed dry food from their diets when they were about 6 months old and 1/3 of their diet is still canned.
I’m going...
Hi everyone, I've finally built up the courage to grind my cats' raw food myself (including bone). I've been feeding them grinds from Hare-Today for the past 8 months but shipping costs from PA to CA are getting expensive. Catinfo.com Dr. Pierson's apprehension to buying grinds also kinda scared...
I have two 1 year old cats from the same litter, male and female, both neutered and spayed. My male cat is super sweet and they get a long 90% of the time, but for the past few months he's been biting her neck and straddling her a few times a day. It's not super aggressive and doesn't include...
I’ve been looking for ideas/solutions to keep my two cats off the stove. One jumps on the stove from the floor and the other climbs up the oven handles onto the stove surface. Reason I’m asking is because a lot of the advice I found online was to keep cats from walking into the stove from the...
Hi everyone,
I've posted several times in this forum, and a few times have been about my baby boy, Hugo (I didn't add this to my previous threads since they were about specific instances, but please let me know if this post needs to be deleted). If you've read a couple of the others, you may...
My two cats love raw food. I recently reintroduced raw turkey, which is a blend of boneless turkey thigh, turkey organs (heart, gizzard, liver) egg yolk, & calcium Alnutrin, back into their diet. They transitioned over a two week period with their regular canned food (they eat other raw but I...
I know that they're very nutritious, but how necessary are they? I know Dr. Pierson on catinfo.com doesn't really add them to her food, but I'm not following her recipe. Asking because I use Alnutrin, which includes egg yolk powder, and I've never added raw eggs yolks. But the raw food from Hare...
Hi all,
Hare Today’s turkey grind with bone has given one of my cats problems in the past. He vomited it up a few times, but there were other issues at hand so I don’t fully know what caused it. Nevertheless, I was recommended to try feeding them boneless turkey to see how they would react.
I...
Didn't know if I should post this in Health or Raw Feeding thread.
My poor Hugo let his curiosity get to the best of him, and 2 1/2 days ago he was stung by a bee on his mouth while trying to catch it (see photo here). It’s located right where his bottom lip would be if they had lips lol. The...
My two kittens are 9 months. For most of their lives, my boy Hugo has been about a pound heavier and grows faster than his sister, Honey. At 5 months Hugo was 7 lbs and Honey was 5.5 lbs. But now there's only a few oz size difference. Honey has gained 1 lb in the past month (10.9 lbs total) and...
Sorry for the long post. It might be a complex situation so I feel like I should include as many important details as possible. Scroll down for the tl;dr version.
I've been feeding my 9 month old kittens raw food for almost 5 weeks now. But for the past week, my poor Hugo has vomited the raw...
My two 8 month old cats have been eating raw food for about 2 weeks now. Everything is going great health wise, but I’ve noticed that they’ve been urinating twice as much now. They used to urinate around 3 times a day each and now it’s more like 5-6 times each a day.
They eat two meals of raw...
Yesterday I introduced one of my 8 month old kittens to raw food (ground chicken meat/bones/organs from Hare Today) and she immediately LOVED it. Like she was addicted to it right away like a drug. Problem is now she barely wants to touch the canned food that they’re currently eating. I was...
Apologies if there are previous threads on this--I spent a while looking and couldn't find anything.
I'm planning on transitioning my two 7 month old kittens to a mostly raw diet. For right now they'll be eating a raw meal every morning and evening, with a canned meal during lunch time while...
I have this cute Veken fountain that my 7 month old kittens have been using for four months now. They absolutely love it and would drink from it multiple times a day, even play with the water with their paws. I recently completely removed dry food from their diet, so instead of eating two wet...
I've read countless times that kittens should only eat food specifically made for kittens, and not adult food or food for "all life stages" because the kitten food is designed specifically for their young and growing bodies. But I was wondering what the actual difference is between kitten food...
Hi everyone. I have two 7month old kittens who currently eat Instinct's kitten kibble and Instinct's kitten canned food (just transitioned them back to this wet food, they were previously eating Wellness Complete Health Kitten Pate). They eat their wet food in the morning and evening, and the...
Hi everyone. I have two 6 month old kittens who seem to be prone to soft stool. I'm still trying to figure out what's causing it, but that's another discussion.
Anyways, I know that when introducing new foods into their diet, you're supposed to transition it in gradually over 7-10 days with the...
