    Need name/link for site of holistic vet that discusses litter boxes and UTI issues...

    There was a website that was referenced frequently for raw feeding, litter boxes and litter types, and urinary issues. For the life of me, I can't find it now. If anyone knows of what I'm referring to, can you please post the link? I'd truly appreciate it. Thank you!

    Which Clumping Litter Is The Least Dusty?

    Due to the possibility of my cat having asthma, I switched my cat’s Dr. Elsey’s litter (blue bag) to Natural Fresh multi cat walnut clumping litter. While it works as far as clumping, I find it to be dustier than the the Dr. Elsey. The brownish dust gets everywhere and stains my carpet too. He’s...

    Think Kitty Has Asthma And Need Ideas To Help Him

    I will be taking my kitty in to see the vet for confirmation but from symptoms and watching videos, I’m almost positive it’s asthma episodes. I also recorded them for the vet to see to properly diagnose. This came on all of a sudden and he doesn’t have symptoms of a URI. I’ve been using Dr...

    Cat Overturning Fountains..anyone Else Have This Problem?

    I have an 11 month old Maine Coon that is also water obsessed. I know the importance of water in a cat's diet and my kitty definitely drinks more out of a fountain. The problem is that I haven't tried a fountain that he doesn't tip over. It's like he's not happy until he overturns them. I have...

    Dr Elsey Classic Or Ultra Litter? Is There A Difference?

    I am currently using the Dr. Elsey Ultra clumping litter (blue bag) and I saw that the Classic was on sale. Is there a difference between the two? I do like the blue bag so I don't want to jinx anything. Just wondering if they work they same and if it's a matter of particle size? Which tracks a...

    What Budget Friendly Foods Work Best For Your Kitty?

    My kitty currently eats Nutro kitten dry food and either Fancy Feast pates and Nutro wet food. Those wet foods seem to work best for him or he will get soft stools otherwise. He eats one to one and half cans daily and has dry out for eating between meals. I’d like to cut down on the cost of the...

    What Can I Feed A Kitty With A Bad Tummy?

    My kitten is 6.5 months old. Yesterday, he ate a portion of Iams Perfect Portions indoor turkey wet food. He ate one portion which looked fine, but then when I went to open the second part later on in the day, I noticed that it had a weird greenish color in it and something around the inner rim...

    Not Adding Water To Wet Food..?

    Up until now my kitten has been fine with 1-2 tablespoons added to his wet food, but recently there are some brands or flavors that he's not quite fond of if I add the water. Is feeding right out of the can perfectly fine and enough moisture if that's all the water they get? I've been adding the...

    If You Choose To Feed Grocery Store Brands, Which Have You Had Success With?

    There is so much info about the best foods available per ingredient but then for various reasons whether budget, kitty refusal, availability, and health issues, etc, many people feed grocery store foods. I even read of some people saying their pets did better on those “bad” foods. I had a dog...

    Opinions On Fresh Pet Pate.

    Has anyone used the Fresh Pet pate for cats that is sold in the fridge part of Petco? I picked up a chicken & beef roll to try since it’s minimal ingredients and no starchy carbs. Just wanted to know others experience with it. If it works out, I plan to add it into a wet food rotation.

    Which Food Brands Have Least Amount Of Recalls?

    Which cat food brands have had the least amount or no recalls? I’d like to change my kitten off of Royal Canin kitten dry food but I’d like it to hopefully be a good brand with a good quality record if he will eat it. Dry is supplemental to his wet food. I have just tried Nutro Natural Choice...

    Is There Something Like Fancy Feast But Without Meat By Products?

    I'm currently eliminating some things from my kitten's diet and for now I'm trying to find only named proteins. Meat by products is too broad and I don't know what kind of meat it is. I think my kitten doesn't do too well with beef and meat by products may have beef so for now I don't want it in...

    Cat Fountains.. Which Are Good But Not Too Expensive?

    I'm considering getting a cat fountain but don't have a big budget. I've been looking at the Catit Flower Fountain and I see that I can buy generic brand filters to make them more affordable. Is that a good fountain or is there something better for around the same price range?

    Wellness, Blue Buffalo, And Utis

    I have been doing a lot of reading and it seems that Wellness and Blue Buffalo are being linked with causing UTIs in cats and even some dogs. My vet does not recommend Blue and has said he has seen many sick pets come in and they’ve had Blue as their diet as a common factor. All that said, how...

    Which Probiotic Works Best For Cats?

    I'd like to try a probiotic to help ease my kitten's transition from dry to wet food. He is getting soft stools from the transition with no other health issues. I know of Fortiflora, but as I'm reading I've read it's best to have more than one strain. In particular, enterococcus and...

    Needs Tips To Help Soft Stool..

    I’ve posted a few times that my new kitten was raised on only dry Royal Canin kitten food. I am wanting to get him to eat at least a 90% wet food diet. I’ve used a few brands but they all have the same effect. He gets soft stools from them. Not diarrhea or mud-like but soft enough to leave his...
