    Should I be worried that the vet is not listed on AAFP's website?

    I had to book a last minute flight next week so being that it's going to be Christmas, the feline-only vet I go to is full - no boarding availability. I've been shopping for other boarding facilities and have had no luck (poor boarding facility or completely full).  Then I just did a yelp search...

    Kitty's Oral Health Hygiene While Feeding Raw

    Cookie loves fresh, organic cat nip

    It gets an A+ from me b/c it grows so fast and is constantly providing the kitty (and me) with amusement. Crushing fresh cat nip right off the stem brings out a strong aroma that Cookie just goes *NUTS* over. I really like that I can have an ongoing supply of fresh cat nip with very little...

    Cheap cat toys my kitties love

    Cookie was just playing with a ball of fur that I balled up after plucking it off my ragdoll when I thought...how easy it is to amuse my kitties.

    Due to many hairballs and loose stool, I've read much about the wonders of 100% canned pumpkin. My question is how do you store it and how long can it be kept before it goes bad? I ask because I bought a can of pumpkin and used 3 tablespoons (= 3 days) before I decided to throw it away but...

    Tyler's doing well on the Natural Balance Venison & Peas wet. He really likes it and has been eating just that for the past two weeks or so. But now, it's getting really hard to feed him wet throughout the day so I plan on feeding him NB wet for dinner and a good dry food in the day time...

    Tyler had a fecal check today and while there were no parasites, he has some loose bowel and according to the vet, "foul feces."
