No, the stomach issues started in May of this year, but the behavior started after I switched to working from home vs being out of the house most days. That was about a year ago. I have zero idea how he got my hair inside him. I am a high shedder but I vacuum it up and he’s not much of a head...

Thank you! This a great idea. I will try it next time!

Hi Cat Site Friends! I have a 5-6 y/o male DSH buff tabby, neutered that I adopted from a rescue 3 years ago. Over the past year he developed this aggressive behavior I want to ask about. It seems that when he wants anything from me and I don’t respond fast enough he gets frustrated and starts...

I adopted my cat at age 2-3 and he’s dealt with myriad stomach issues since I’ve had him. I do not allow him food with anything like gums, agar agar, carrageenan. He eats Instinct LID pretty much exclusively. Hella expensive, especially the more novel proteins, but very pure food.

My rescue kitty had the same problem. It's still not 100% cleared up but it takes a couple months for the GI tract to heal from persistent aggravation. What helped me was INSTINCT LID turkey canned & Pet Ultimates probiotics for cats. If you try those & see improvement in about 3-4 days then...

My rescue kitty pees like yours! More even. And he went to the vet 2x because it scared me! My previous cat was at 2-3 then 4 a day when CRF worsened. My vet said- fine, some cats pee that much. I've had him 2 1/2 months, removed all dry food- got him on high quality grain-free, & nothing has...

All the advice given is very good & works with my cat, too. You just have to be patient. They often take a few minutes to warm-up, get interested, see if YOU are really serious about playtime, etc. Dont just walk off if kitty doesn't respond in 1 or 2 minutes. If I did that, my cat & I would...

nfortunately my cat doesn't drink much anymore because he eats an all wet diet. So the drops in the water don't help & his gums are going bad again.

I can't even find a decent feeder for wet food. They are cheap, timers aren't reliable, lids are easy to pry open. Please, if you ever find one that actually works tell us. If I leave town it's 1. Family 2. Neighbor 3. Care.com

Just to put my two cents in- my vet gave me a paste Enysil-F by Vetoquinol (petsmart, PetCo, chewy's $28) that is magic for my kitty. He gets depressed/withdrawn when his eyes act up- poor baby- you can tell it's not just a localized reaction. (Humans say the same about herpes) I prefer not to...

No bones, either it was in the dry/wet foods or it was boiled chicken from the store, but I never give any bones to Reilly. I guess that cats can develop allergies quite easily to foods they eat every day for long periods. Chicken is in A LOT of foods, even ones that say Turkey or Duck. I...

4.6 cubed = approx 98. She says to multiply the answer by 4.6 twice which is a poor way to say "cube original number." It's a very weird formula that just comes out to 20 cal per lb of weight!!

Even if by some odd chance your cat does have FIP, and I'm glad you are getting a second opinion, if she is acting pretty normal then it's not time to euthanize! My gosh, that vet has her priorities a bit out of whack! Reminds me of that saying "shoot first, ask questions later". You have...

Wanted to update with Reilly's condition in case someone else goes searching for answers about chronic diarrhea & finds this. Reilly is doing great now, normal tootsie rolls!!! He ended up being intolerant to chicken & that's the exact food I kept giving him! Ugh. Anyway, I switched him to...

Yeah! I'm a wiz at cats!

Bengal!!!

Thank you @KittyMomma1122. I am really trying. I love my little guy.

I don't know. Would bones act as a type of roughage to help his digestion? I've never fed raw- that's when they eat bones right?
