    Trying to figure out amount to feed of wet/dry food in combination

    I have two 15-month old cats, a boy and a girl (litter mates). We went to the vet today for their annual visit and boy weighs 10.7 lbs and is slightly underweight for his frame and girl weighs 10.2 and is slightly overweight for their frame. I'm trying to introduce a little dry food into their...

    Treating a cat cold/allergies?

    Background: I have noticed a watery eye on one of my almost-year-old kittens for several days now. It's not constant, but it's the same eye each time, and the discharge is clear (like tears), not brown, yellow, or mucousy. Last night, I saw her sneeze and a longish, thin stream of mucous came...

    Mixing raw and cooked?

    I am to the end of raw meat that I ordered from Hare Today and I realized I am a little short on boneless meat to dilute a chicken mixture with. I will need to go ahead and mix the new mixture up before I can get a new order in from Hare Today. I figured I could try getting some ground boneless...

    Older kitten picking on elderly cat

    I have three cats: two 8.5 month old kittens, boy and girl, that I adopted at 10 weeks and an elderly 18-year-old-girl cat. The 18-year-old has never been crazy about the kittens, although the boy kitten has wanted to befriend her from his early days with us but she just hisses at him. I'm...

    Can we talk about poop? (Raw food related)

    Yes, I have become *that* pet owner. My kittens had diarrhea the first three months they were with me, so poop has taken on a new importance in my life. I finally beat the diarrhea with raw and good probiotics, but there have been a couple of flare-ups of ultra soft poop that keep me from...

    Question for Alnutrin users—quantity?

    I've been feeding my kittens Hare Today for several months now and I'm on my second bag of Alnutrin. The first bag came with a scoop and instructions were given by scoop. The second bag I ordered didn't come with a scoop and explained quantity in terms of grams per pound of meet. I bought a...

    When to start reducing food for growing kittens on raw diet

    I have two kittens who are almost 8 months old, and they've been on a mostly raw diet for about 4 months now. As a result of what I think was IBD, they had diarrhea the first three months I had them and I finally knocked that out with a raw diet and good probiotics. They really liked Rad Cat but...

    Tips for getting super-finicky old cat to eat more?

    Hi all. I thought I would present my conundrum to the collective wisdom of this board. I have a 17 year old super finicky kitty, Lucy, who only prefers dry food. She has been free fed her entire life with me (15 years). She's never been very excited about food. I also have two 5.5-month old...

    Contemplating first Hare-Today order...would like advice!

    Hi everyone, I'd love a little feedback before I drop some $$$ ordering from Hare-Today. I'm still pretty new to raw feeding. I took the plunge into raw because I adopted two kittens back in February and I have only just now gotten their diarrhea under control. (At first they tested positive...

She hadn't done it for several years but then her older companion kitty died last November and 2.5 months ago I got two new kittens. And she's at it again.
