He got beef liver this week. He's all excited.

I found a omega 3 replacement. I found an article that recommends avoiding fish based oil if your cat has fish allergies. Fish Allergy in Cats - Symptoms, Causes, Diagnosis, Treatment, Recovery, Management, Cost The replacement I found is algae capsules. They're not as good and might take some...

I didn't see that but it is good to know. I'm on mobile because the laptop died right after I made this account. I can ask the vet about the fish oil. I'd rather be safe than sorry though.

I feed him on a small dinner plate which does spread out hos food. I like the egg tray idea though. I'll see what I can find. We also have a few small tea cups like you would get at a Chinese restaurant I could put in the middle. His gulping used to make him throw up a lot. It's why we worked...

I'm pretty sure the oils are responsible for that shiny healthy coat. Same for eggs. On top of both things being healthy in other ways. Just with his egg and fish allergies I don't know if he can have fish oil. If he needs the omega 3s I can find other sources. I'll try finding out if a cat with...

He's still eating it. If he's hungry he will eat. I suppose this might be better actually. He doesn't tend to take his time eating. He was a stray once upon a time and old habits die hard. This seems to slow him down so it's not all bad.

This recipe does look really good. Can I still leave the egg yolks out and swap the fish oil for vegetable or olive oil? I have a coffee grinder I can use for the egg shells. The hammer and rolling pin method doesn't get it very fine. He's been staging a protest. Thank you.

He was on fish for a year. Tuna, salmon, white fish etc. He looked awful. We also have put thought into what we'll do if he starts reacting to chicken. At that point we'll put him on a stronger medicine and just play keep up. Special baths and sweaters so he can't chew so much. At that point our...

I have looked at freeze dried foods. Unfortunately they're very expensive where I am. They're not much better online. I do have some chicken Pure Bites he can have as a treat. We thought it was weird to he wasn't allergic to wheat. That could also be because in the year we were waiting to get...

My husband likes tea so we have just boxes of the stuff. We don't have an herb garden or grow our own. And he might have contact dermatitis. I don't know specifically which things he will react to by just touching. I'm assuming things he doesn't eat he can't touch. I know eggs and milk make him...

I didn't know about these before. I just did some reading and they look promising, but are there any types that don't have rice or soy? He scores pretty high on both of those.

We do think mice or rats are another good option. Rabbit just happens to be the closest thing he was tested for. We'd have to get him tested again to know if he reacts to them which involves getting a needle in his neck. For now we're trying to navigate with what we know he can have. The only...

Mice might be natural but he's also allergic to rabbit. I've linked a PDF of his complete allergy test panel. He's allergic to almost everything on it. Before we got it done he was chewing himself bald, skin and bones, constantly throwing up, spazing out, being treated for gum infections monthly...

I would like to find more precise measurements for his supplements. I really would prefer using a premix because this is a difficult thing to do on my own. And so easy to mess up. Most of the mixes I've looked at so far though have had a least one allergen in them if not several. That's why I...

We unfortunately don't know of any nutritionists near us. And even if I found one his allergies are so various they're tricky to navigate around. We can get frozen mice, rats, chicks and other feeders. We are thinking of trying him on mice but they weren't on his allergy test. Just given how...

We were told by our vet to assume he is anemic when he's doing bad and compensate accordingly. We didn't get his blood tested specifically for iron, but he will chew himself bloody and we actually had to reschedule his allergy test the first time because they didn't dare draw blood until he...

I'll definitely pick up some calcium powder before I make his next batch. Our food processor unfortunately isn't strong enough for bone. He's also missing too many teeth to just chew them up himself. Even if he could do it on his own I've heard bad things about chicken bones splintering in the...

Since it has egg yolks it won't work. I hadn't thought of cat music but I'll give it a try. He has lots of shelves to climb and jump on. He has toys as well. There is a big cat tree in the living room but even before he was quarentined he never really used it. He likes to spend most of his time...

My cat, Kit-Kat, has had blood tests done to find the cause for his really bad over grooming, scratching and chewing. The allergy tests came back positive for almost everything. The food he's got the lowest reaction to is chicken. The vet has encouraged us to explore as many options as we can...
