    Cystitis relief - Slippery elm, red raspberry leaf, marshmallow root?

    My boy has cystitis and I'm looking for something to help him. I first tried d-mannose and cornsilk, but they upset his stomach so much he didn't want to eat and drink while he was on it. I've been reading through other posts about the benefits of slippery elm, marshmallow root, and red...

    Wet food recommendations for worlds pickiest, temptations-loving cat?

    My picky cat hates wet food. He doesn't drink much water so I'd love to switch him from dry to wet food, or at the very least half and half. I've spent hundreds of dollars now searching for a wet food he'd eat and so far I haven't had any luck. The only thing he's ever really loved is...

    Convenia, cerenia, or the end?

    My vet prescribed my nauseous 12-pound cat cerenia. He's been taking 16 mg a day and since starting is barely eating and spends all day asleep. I've read of others who've had the same experience. Does 16 mg sound like too much for him? I'm new here so if there's somewhere else I should be...
