    More affordable alternatives to RC PR wet food?

    She told me that grain-free has been linked to heart issues for dogs, and while nothing is definitive for cats yet, it's kind of a "better safe than sorry" situation. Phoebe and Milo handle grain fine, the RC HP has some kind of rice I think in it and they had no issues. I did try to call my vet...

    More affordable alternatives to RC PR wet food?

    Yeah, we've never had a problem with throwing up just random diarrhea with no rhyme or reason really (which is why this has all been so hard- no consistent thing seems to be the cause). My vet did discuss medications, but hasn't ever recommended doing an ultrasound to me, so that's really good...

    More affordable alternatives to RC PR wet food?

    Hi guys! It's been a while since I've been on here. Just to update: After almost a year of trials and tribulations with skin/stomach issues and struggles tweaking their diet, I'm so happy to say Milo and Phoebe are doing wonderful! The last few months we've been free of any bathroom accidents...

    Tapeworms?

    Update: My vet took a look at the photos and does not think it's a tapeworm/any worm. They are still going to have me bring it in to their appointment tomorrow just to check and make sure though!

    Tapeworms?

    Yeah, definitely no segments anywhere that I have found, but I think because it's flat I assumed tapeworm too. I don't know much about roundworms unfortunately. I know how they got the tapeworms, but how can they get roundworms? Could it be the same scenario that they got it at the shelter...

    Tapeworms?

    I just sent them an email, though I assume I won't hear back until tomorrow. I'll give an update if they can tell me anything!

    Tapeworms?

    So, I found something weird while scooping my cats litter boxes, and I'm wondering if anyone would be able to tell if it's a tapeworm or just something weird in the clay mix. Of my two cats, Milo has for certain had tapeworms in the past (found it wiggling in his poop, it was traumatizing) but...

    Extreme dandruff + oily fur?

    Hey all! My kittens Phoebe and Milo (siblings) both have some dandruff. Milo is a longhair buff tabby so I hardly ever see any dandruff on him, other than when I brush his fur out, and his fur is not oily. Phoebe is a shorthair classic tabby, and I'm not sure if it's because her fur is shorter...

    how can i save my carpet? :,)

    hey all! this post is for milo, my little scratchy gremlin :hyper: first and foremost, they're only 8 months so they are very much still in the "everything is a toy i can chew on and scratch at" phase. i live in a rental, and sadly it has a carpeted bedroom. they don't have accidents or spill...

    Is it possible to separate mixed litter without wasting?

    Hi!! I ran to Walmart and got a sifter like this and it worked!! Mostly :sweat: I got most of the dustiness out, thank you for the recommendation! I am thinking about an air purifier, I recently got a humidifier and a purifier is next!! :)

    Is it possible to separate mixed litter without wasting?

    I recently switched Milo and Phoebe to clay litter, and so far it's going much better than I expected! They used to play with the paper pellets, and I was very worried I would have the same problem with clay, but so far the worst that has happened is Phoebe getting a little bit on her nose from...

    merrick duck pate- what is this??

    Oh wow okay I had no idea what agar agar is made of but that actually makes a lot of sense! It was the Purrfect Bistro version. She did emphasize that everything in their food comes from "whole ingredients" so if they're making their own agar agar, it's possible some seaweed pieces didn't fully...

    merrick duck pate- what is this??

    YES! That's exactly what I was thinking as well, I even mentioned thinking it was seaweed to the rep and she didn't have an answer. And yes nothing in their ingredients like seaweed... after looking last night as well none of their other flavors do either! No idea how this would have happened:gaah:

    merrick duck pate- what is this??

    Thanks for everyone's responses! I called them, and as she was asking me questions it felt as though it was a common topic that is called in about.... She asked about the texture, so I said rubbery but hard and brittle when it's dried out and she laughed, saying "that was my next question, if it...

    merrick duck pate- what is this??

    opened a can to give my kittens for lunch and noticed something weird looking in the can so i pulled it out only to find this... does anyone know what this even is??? it feels rubbery like seaweed, but there's nothing even remotely like that in the ingredients. opened another can and found it...

    convenia injection- i'm afraid for my kitten

    I had no idea and never considered that they shouldn't be given together! Crud, then it's definitely not helping them at all, I'm sure it's killing all the good bacteria now that I'm thinking about it :doh: I've been mixing the Proviable with their food at dinner right before I give them the...

    convenia injection- i'm afraid for my kitten

    It's very well possible! I'm almost positive the first week after convenia and vetalog she had an upset stomach. It's strange though, a few times she would walk away from the wet and go to the dry I leave out during the day. Not sure what that means, I just assumed she got sick of the wet food...

    convenia injection- i'm afraid for my kitten

    That's so weird about Ferguson, I've never heard of that! But yes you're right, I'm definitely a person to go straight to the internet with a question and get overwhelmed by all the negative information, I have to work on that especially for my kitties' sake :sweat: I totally freaked myself...

    convenia injection- i'm afraid for my kitten

    Sorry I'm just getting to this now! But poor Wizard that's no fun :( I will say there is a proximity in the dates. I started the lysine on the last day of October, and Phoebe's first reaction was November 11th. I can definitely try stopping it and see how she does, especially if it's not doing...

    convenia injection- i'm afraid for my kitten

    I will respond to these messages after work, but I did just get a call from my vet and she told me the clavamox was actually not for the URI like I understood, it was specifically for the GI issues in both kittens, and for Milo's lung inflammation. Again, no tests have been done for bacterial...
