pet food companies exaggerate how much food to give a pet. I’ve had dogs & the feeding chart is ridiculous on every pkg I’ve ever seen. 4-5 cans a day for a cat? That does not sound right but I digress as I am a new cat servant.
my girl often leave a little bit of kibble & finishes it later...
Sounds like you are over feeding. Another poster was over feeding her kitty had diarrhea. When she cut back the diarrhea went away. 3oz 3x a day is a lot.
i feed my 4.5 mth girl 1/4 of 3 oz can Of fancy feast kitten 4x a day with a small spoon of blue buffalo kibble. Plus she get a small amt of...
My little girl (4.5 mths) loves fancy feast kitten All flavors. I’ve tried more expensive brands but she wouldn’t touch it. She’s happy, healthy & growing like a weed.
My little girl 4.5 mths old likes fancy feast kitten, all flavors. I’ve tried other wet food n she won’t eat most of them. I feed 1/4 can 4x a day with a small spoon of blue buffalo kibble. I also add just a little water to the canned food for extra moisture as this girl doesn’t drink much...
You throw away their food? That brand is expensive but if that’s what you do...more power to you.
my little girl is almost 5 mths old n about 5 lbs. I feed her fancy feast kitten 1/4 can 4x a day plus a small spoon full of blue buffalo kitten kibble. She gets treats thru out the day too. I...
My 4 mth old kitten announces that she has used the litter box with loud meows n trills. I’ve never had a cat before. Is this usual for a cat or is my girl special?
Maybe it isn’t too late. Perhaps when some1 comes over they can sit on the floor n toss tasty treats n slowly lure her out, eventually letting her take treat from their hand followed by a little pet. With some frequency/ consistency with different ppl maybe she’ll get used to ppl. Worth a try.
What you say makes sense. She needs a lesson in not stalking my feet rather than a pure distraction. She only started this behavior last week so I need to nip it in the bud. Are there any alternatives than holding her downn the firm ”NO!”? I have a bad back n can’t always bend that far. Most...
Ok thx. What is the proper way to hold them down? Do I grab the scruff? Roll them on their side like an alpha roll?
would throwing the toy be okay before she pounces on my legs or wld that reinforce the stalking ?
My 3.5 mth old kitten waits behind something n stalks me. When I walk by she wants to play with my feet / legs which to her is biting my leg. This is my 1 st Cat ever n altho she looks so cute stalking her prey ( my feet) getting play/love bites is not. Must I always walk with a toy to distract?
I believe three are some urinary health dry foods for cats. if he is allowed to eat it, give it to him in his mid day meal but make him work for it. Hiding some bits under a small cup or putting some in a toy that will fall out when he plays with it, etc. This way he won’t gulp it in 3 sec n...
I keep her in as much as I can but I’m allergic to cats. she was born feral & her mother brought her to me as I have been feeding her for a few mths. I didn’t know for sure if she was pregnant. Then 1 mth ago SURPRISE! She brought her kitten to me & the baby has never left.
She threw up her...
