    Animal Testing Question...

    I was unable to locate anything about Felidae regarding their policy on animal testing. Anyone here have any information about it?

    Wal-Mart Maxximum brand cat food

    For anyone feeding their kitties Iams, which is what I was previously keeping mine on, as I was told it was a "top notch cat food", I've switched to Felidae, which is by far, a better quality. I live in a small town. Really the only place to buy cat food other than Wal-Mart or a grocery chain is...

    Going on Vacation for a Month

    When I was a teenager, I left Ohio to live in Texas. I had two cats at the time, and intended to take the one I thought could make the plane trip. Bear was a brave boy, and I was his, so he had to go. Twinkles was extremely high strung and would often scare herself over silly things like books...

    Heating up can food.

    What about sitting it out and letting it come to room temperature on its own? Does that take too long and increase the risk of spoilage?

    Dirty Nose...

    We've been using it for about a year and a half. They're a little over two years old now. We used to use Tidy Cat Multi-cat forumula, but it wasn't a clumping litter. I wonder if it could be the dust from the clumping litter, as it does seem to be really dusty...

    he doesn't listen..

    That's hilarious! I hiss at mine when they're misbehaving. I didn't even think about it. It's like second nature to me after a lifetime of having feline best friends.

    Dirty Nose...

    It's Members Mark brand from Sam's Club, a sand-like, clumping litter. The stuff in her nose never resembles the litter though. It's usually black and almost like matted hair and dirt.

    he doesn't listen..

    Each kitty has a different personality. It's possible that your new kitty is just more curious and more of an explorer than your previous ones. I would certainly suggest being more patient with him, as he is still quite young and kitties mellow with age and maturity. I've never heard of the...

    Dirty Nose...

    Fraggle seems to have constant gunk jammed in and around her little nose. I've no idea what it is or where she's picking it up, but she breathes funny because it gets so packed. I faithfully pick her nose every day to every other day depending on just how bad it is, but the poor little thing...

    burying food

    My kitties busted another myth...that they're the pets. In my house... I'm the pet. They own me.

    What's your favorite canned food?

    When I was a teenager, our two cats were fed, primarily, a dry diet. When my mom spoke to the vet about introducing wet foods, he advised that we should be cautious of the ASH content in the foods we gave them. He said high concentrations of Ash led to frequent and persistant urinary tract...

    burying food

    Fraggle and Angel do it everytime their done eating for the moment and have since they were kittens. Even if they eat a few bites they feel the need to cover it. Then, five minutes later they return, eat a few more kibbles and cover it again.

    Help! Need food advice!

    Well, I'm back from the store with their new Felidae dry formula and a variety of flavors from Merrick, Felidae and Natural Balance for tryouts on the wet foods. I've mixed some of the new food into their old Iams for them. So far, Fraggle seems rather fond of the Felidae. Angel, on the other...

    sleep issues

    Angel and Fraggle are good about playing mostly throughout the day, but I'm here with them almost all of the time. My biggest problem is that Angel likes to sleep with me and hubby. Between us actually...and she's a bed hog. If he's an only cat, a playmate might help the situation. If that's...

    Help! Need food advice!

    How much wet do you feed them at each meal? I've read a lot of varying opinions on the food manufacturer websites. I don't want to over or under feed my princesses. On a side note: Fraggle is currently 10 lbs. and Angel is 8 lbs. I was worried Fraggle was overweight, but the vet said she's a...

    Help! Need food advice!

    Thanks for all your help, everyone. It's really appreciated. I'm in the process of researching the varieties of dry foods that were mentioned (will be researching wet food too thanks to the advice in this thread ), and I'm strongly leaning towards the Felidae. Although pricier than other...

    Help! Need food advice!

    You know, I asked my vet about introducing wet food to their diet and he dismissed it saying that it didn't add anything much nutritionally and only really served to make their feces "more odiferous". I'm beginning to question my vet's abilities and training. He had to put on these super...

    Cat and the Christmas Tree

    I have to concur with Touro. I can't believe you would even consider a mouse trap as a means of training your cat! If that thing goes off, it could clamp on her tail, her toes...anything! Absolutely get that thing outta there - immediately! You could cause far more than a scare to your kitty...

    Help! Need food advice!

    Hey there, everyone. I could really use some good advice here. Over the course of the past several months, my two kitties have suffered a variety of mouth irritations. They've had "acne" problems, getting blackheads around their chins and lips, skin irritation on their chins (vet said it was...
