My 4 year old black domestic shorthair, Meemo, just had a really bad upper respiratory infection two weeks ago. He has recovered but now he is sitting seemingly uncomfortably at times with his paws up at his chest and shoulders up and back and breathing seems to be quick and shallow. I'm...

It may be 20 cal per pound for indoor cat, but still 10-20 cal for some treats until I can eat him off them. I watched my cameras all day while working..he has not touched the Nutro dry food

Also to an earlier post, I have to disagree respectfully that one Temptations treat is equivalent to a frosting covered sugar cookie for a human. Temptation treats are 2 cal per treat. The average cat should eat 30 cal per pound per day, so for an 8 pound cat that’s 240 cal. The wet food is 65...

Yeah he’s hiding his mischievous thoughts

Tigger..

I think you guys can find pictures of my babies in my profile or it may be one of the first posts of mine back in 2012

Im doing that with midnight trying to switch him from Fancy Feast chicken liver pate to Dr Elseys Clean Protein pate.

I havent had any luck with him and pate :(:( broth either ...still trying

I have 5 cameras I the house that is monitor on my phone...Tiggers been sleeping since I left for work at 10:20. It’s 3:40

Just ran in to a few other local little pet shops looking for good food...loaded up with cans and pouches... BUT ...I should not be throwing all this new food at my babies should I?? It will upset their stomachs :(. Although midnight eats severel variations with no problem and meemo eats darn...

I’m terrified of low blood sugar with Tigger while I’m gone...he’s on the lowest dose although I guess half a unit is actually a lower dose but I’m not changing anything without vet knowledge!!

I have tried the tiki with sardines and one with mackerel...lead balloons...I just don’t think my babies will ever go for their ancestral food from the wild...they are suburban Americanized junk food eaters, although I tried to find good dry food not like meow mix garbage :(. Once they’ve...

Just posted a loooong intro post to FDMB...... this is so hard...I pray everyone will take me in as I'm on my own, Vegas is a solitary, unfriendly place...I have NO ONE to help me I live alone have limited money and 6 cats who 5 of them are old or getting old .....and of course Tigger with...

I have tried the freeze dried treats before and went over like a lead balloon. I did buy Purebites chicken and also Shrimp, suprisingly two of my cats ate the shrimp but Tigger did not want any of it, not the Tiki Tuna flakes either. He is wondering why I'm putting all this new stuff under his...

Have to go to work now :( Will keep updated on my phone...thank you all SO much! This is my first real health crisis ever.... I will posit in diabetes forum tonight.

I was recommended to Dr Bower because he wasnt old school like my previous vet Dr Herr. Dr Herr gave one of my cats a depo shot what I cant remember, but Dr Bower refuses to give Depo shots due to the harm they can do to the heart etc as has come to light I guess. He only does liquid...

I did read something that after insulin started appetite will decrease as they don't feel compelled to eat for sugar or something like that? OH also, The doctor did say Purina has a 10% carb dry food. Purina DM. AND Dr Elseys (love their litter) just came out with a food "Clean Protein"...

Yes but the problem is I dont know if licking the gravy is enough for a 1 unit insulin shot. He went back wedged between the excercise bike and wall so I coaxed him out shaking temptations bag and he ate six of them and I gave him his shot. Ive had to do A LOT of food research and these...

But isn't jarring to just take away something that was they're basically food for I don't know how long now and they're confused and don't understand it and it shocks them,... When I brought him home from the vet Saturday after the vet gave him his first shot at 2 p.m. he seemed like a new cat...

I found out a revelation.....Tiggers not eating dry food like the rest....he used to..in the years I left temptation treats out, he started only eating those....so by not putting any down these last two days to him ive taken away his 'food' :(:(:( he hasnt hardly eaten. Yesterday and today when...
