    Best Dog Breeds For A Cat Household?

    Thanks everyone! I was thinking of going through a shelter/rescue already, and it sounds like that would be my best plan. My boyfriend loves labs, so I may keep my eyes peeled for a lab/lab mix as it sounds like they could be a good fit. But I have no real breed preference, so I'll be flexible!

    Cat Food Recall Weruva Best Feline Friend (bff) Product Recall - Australia

    This whole situation is terrifying me. I want to be able to trust that brands will, at the very least, make food not kill my pet. My kitties liked some Weruva stuff but I'm hesitant to feed it now. I almost feel as though their "poor quality" foods like Friskies, Iams, and Science Diet are...

    Wevura Bff Recall - Australia

    I wonder how long their food was produced without enough thiamine. So scary and sad for cats that were fed this. Was this due to different standards (their AAFCO equivalent) in Australia, or was it a matter of a lack of proper testing and oversight. I'm definitely wary of feeding Weruva to my...

    Budget Aside, Does Anyone Here Choose To Feed Grocery Store Brands?

    I forgot to add that we've recently tried a couple flavors of Iams grain-free stuff and they have liked that as well. It's got shreds in sauce which they love but also is reasonably healthy and decently priced. I may try incorporating more into the rotation to see if they eat it consistently.

    Budget Aside, Does Anyone Here Choose To Feed Grocery Store Brands?

    Yep. One of the foods in their current rotation is Purina Pro Plan. I've fed them fancier foods and their favorites still seem to be Friskies, Fancy Feast, and others. I do keep some other "healthy" options in rotation, which they will eat, but nothing seems to make them as happy as those...

    Best Dog Breeds For A Cat Household?

    So my partner and I just bought our first house, and we're thinking of getting a dog when we move in. What types of dogs generally do well with cats, and if you introduced a dog to a cat household, how was the adjustment period?

    Cat Food Recall Weruva Best Feline Friend (bff) Product Recall - Australia

    I'm in the US, but I'm definitely concerned about buying Weruva for now. It scares me how risky it can be to feed our pets at times, even with "good" brands.

    Kitties Don't Like The Good Stuff

    One recent favorite of my kittens is Wild Calling Trot'n Tommy 96% Turkey. They've also liked Nutro Soft Loaf Chicken, Nutro Flaked Salmon, Blue Wilderness Chicken and Trout, Weruva Truluxe Mediterranean Harvest, Weruva The Double Dip Chicken and Beef. Taste of the Wild and TikiCat went over ok...

    Wet Food Cat Suddenly Only Eating Dry Food??

    Have you found any other types of flavors she seems to like? One of my cats is particularly picky, and she prefers chunks in gravy as well. Some foods that have been successful with her: Hill's Healthy Cuisine Roasted Chicken and Rice Medley (they have a kitten variety), Fancy Feast Medleys...

    Polydactyl -- Extra Toes And Issues They Can Cause?

    One of my cats is polydactyl, and when I took her in to get spayed, my vet called me to warn me. She has normal size extra toes, and then some tiny toes in between the large ones. She recommended that I have the claws on the tiny toes removed, as they tend to get infected. I have no idea if this...

    I Have A Feeling The Cat Was Abused...

    Mickey is lucky to have you. It definitely sounds like your ex was abusive, to people and animals. The records should be on your side, since you are the only on who has taken him to a vet. You could possible file an order of protection against your ex, if you're scared he might come back, but...

    Food Help

    Is there a reason you stopped feeding Chicken Soup? Some great brands that offer dry food for kittens are Wellness, Nutro, and Merrick. Acana and Orijen as well. I feed my kittens Blue Buffalo (I've used Wilderness as well as Freedom) with good success. I'm not sure what the prices are in...

    Dry Food Or Wet Food? Both?

    I feed both. One reason for this is that it is cost-effective. A bag of good quality dry food costs me about $25 per month. Wet food costs quite a bit more, and would not be affordable for me as the only food. Second is that my schedule is a bit crazy right now, and dry food is convenient and I...

    Toy Recommendations Safe To Leave Out For Kittens?

    Mine really like the fabric mice (with or without catnip), balls with a jingle bell inside and plastic bottle caps (large enough that they can't try to swallow them).

    Is This Food Good For Kittens?

    I have not tried that food, but it looks pretty decent. The meat meals make up about 50% of the food. You could go higher, but it's better than most pet foods sold. My only concern is that the ash content is relatively high, but it should still be ok.

    Wellness CORE Air Dried Natural Grain-Free Indoor

    Bumping this thread and wondering if anyone else has tried this food? I saw it in store for the first time today and was intrigued. My cats are about 10 months old, so it'd still be a while before they got this but I'm looking into adult food options!
