What I have heard is "the best kind of food for your cat is the one he/she will eat". While I wholeheartedly agree, I've been told repeatedly "yikes, Fancy Feast,t a bit too salty/high in ash for young males", which makes me doubt myself. I feed them the classics cans too I believe, and I...

I can only imagine. I'm sending you a hug. I've been freaking out for a few hours now, and I have no one to confide in about this. If your vet said Purina vet indoor wet food is okay, I'll have to check it out at my vet's clinic... My cats have taken a liking to Fancy Feast fish pate flavors...

By "brand rotation", you mean changing their dry food every few months and then go back to Orijen? My cats adapt pretty well, but to make a change in dry food I'd have to do the transition during a few days every time. Moreover I'm at a loss at which other brand I could buy? I tried to make them...

I'm sorry to jump in this thread so late; I couldn't have said it better than OP and she resumed all my concerns. I'm quite late for the news, I just learned about this issue with grain-free food and cardiomyopathy in pets. I have been feeding my 2 cats Orijen Tundra for about a year now. They...

I looked at his eye again this morning and his third eyelid is red and more brown than the one on his left eye. It doesn't show unless he looks aside. I will bring him to the clinic tonight and hopefully he will be ok and I won't feel too guilty :( ... I refrained from going to the e-vet on...

He had 2 conjunctivitis when he was a kitten, but this didn't look like it since there was no discharge. The appointment tomorrow is to a regular vet clinic, not an emergency one. Really, his eye itself looks ok. It's the redness at the corner and the upper eyelid that are bothering me. Does...

Happy came to me on Sunday morning with his right eye (left one on the pictures) shut and a swollen. Usually I would have rushed to the vet clinic without a second thought. Unfortunately, most vets are closed on Sundays and after a few calls I realized my only choice was to go to the emergency...

I have two long-haired cats, and I had to face this issue repeatedly with both of them. One of them, Happy, loves to be handled and actually purrs while I'm cleaning him with a pet wipe, however I have found that they tend to smear the poo instead of removing it. My other one, Meeko? Boy, it's...

One of my cats dragged the brush I use to do the dishes to the floor and ate a part of the suction cup at the end of the brush. Here you can also see what it's supposed to look like. I called at my vet clinic and they said I should buy their laxative paste that is apparently for hairballs, even...

I trim them myself; I am aware of the pink part. :) I know their claws always have more than one layer but now it's many many layers, a bit like a bamboo stick that has split at one end. I think he may have hurt his claw last time he climbed down from the bathroom door; he had trouble to go down...

@Antonio65 actually, I'm also scared of trimming his claws because there's like triple layers. The first picture shows the claw is really thick but it looks like his nail is split. I wish my cellphone would cooperate by taking clear pictures *sigh*

Happy has some black thing inside 2 claws, first one is on his thumb and the second on the first digit of his other paw. These 2 claws are in the process of "shedding". The black substance looks solid on his thumb. At first I thought he only had some material from the rug stuck around his...

Happy has been sneezing quite often for the past week or so. Especially after he sniffed something (wall, floor, couch, any toy, etc.) It's not big sneezes. More like "huff, huff, huff" and then sometimes a small "achoo" at the end of the huffing. I vaccumed thoroughly the apartment last night...

My exboyfriend and I have broken up a little over a month ago. He still lives with me at the moment, but he's moving out on November 1st. He loves my cats and they love him. Technically they are "mine" because I've paid for everything and take care of them. He was also living with me when I got...

I'm currently looking into insuring my 2 kitties and I'm sort of... not happy? Because the "best insurance company" I've heard of do cover for dental... unless your cat had gingivitis before. Are all insurance companies like that? If that's the case then except for accidents/illness it's sort of...

Sorry i didn't reply sooner! I bought child locks for cupboards but couldn't find any for the drawers that I didn't have to pierce/drill/glue something on the drawer for it to work. I have an apartment and these drawers are not "mine" so to speak. I don't want to modify the drawers and end up...

I just realized I never replied to you, even though I thought you had a good point with burning his excess energy. How did you teach your cat, with a lot of treats? My father sent me that video of a cat high fiving a guy 2 months ago and said I should try that with mine, lol!

There is already a sort of tent-like material covering the bars of the balcony, but not the bottom. I don't think I could cover the whole thing with a net either. My (now) ex-boyfriend should be moving out in a month or so. Which means I will be 100% sure at all times that the door is properly...

The thing is Happy is okay with the collar but I don't want to order another collar for Meeko if he just won't wear it :/ I will think about the "on-collar" tags. I especially wanted to put the rabies tag and the chip I.D. tag. I learned yesterday that apparently here in Quebec City the rabies...

Let me know what happens! I'm sorry the simple solution to my cat's reversed sneezing didn't work for you. Did your cats ever had worms? Any cause for the allergies, food? Did you try the limited ingredients food or did your vet say it was environmental allergies? I remember I changed the...
