    personally, i feel that this post is very rude. i don't feel that you guys are listening to me. i DO NOT have the ability to get any other food for my cat unless i get canned crap from the grocery store. that is it. i can't figure out why you all keep pressuring me to do something that i...

    if you have a feed store then that is great. i live in newfoundland. i DO NOT have a feed store. we don't have live stock and therefore no need for a feed store. i also live in a remote area so shipping is a lot of money. just check it out for yourself, my postal code is a0k 1b0.

    cosequin for bladder health?

    i have just provided recent information that stated that there is no link between crystals and magnesium (fish) in food. it also stated that there is not enough evidence to prove any link between dry food and flutd issues. also, i have stated that i cannot get different food. i live in a VERY...

    i read the page you linked and my question is, if blue's flutd is idiopathic what is the problem with treating the symptoms and making her more comfortable if we can't figure out the reason for it? i can't fix it if i don't know what is causing it. it is possibly stress. in this new house i...

    i understand the difference between a culture and a urinalysis but the problem is that my vet may not be able to do a urine culture. i will only be able to do what the vet can do. (when my dog was sick over christmas last year my vet had to send his fecal sample to the vet school in another...

    right now i am feeding blue go! grain free canned food. she used the vomit DAILY like clockwork when she was eating cat chow and i have since been educated about food. i switched her to progressively better food and the vomiting has gotten less and less. right now she is vomiting about once...

    there is no closer vet. it looks like her fur is growing back on her belly and her pees are getting bigger so i am assuming she is feeling better. i don't know when blue's last urine culture was. the vet diagnosed the infection with blood work and physical evidence last time. i am sorry that...

    cosequin for bladder health?

    i cannot and will not feed my cats corn based food. or any other food with grain for that matter. i have also researched fish based foods and flutd and found out that all fish foods are not bad for flutd cats. they said that previously poor quality fish meal was used and it was mostly bone...

    what are you getting at? my vet did not suggest blood work and i didn't think of it. i am planning to go back to town at the end of november. i will call the vet and see if they want blood work done then.

    cosequin for bladder health?

    she had a complete blood work up done in april. all it showed was the infection in her bladder. i am assuming that she is ok now. the vet didn't suggest that i get blood work done when she was in on friday.

    thank you. i will probably give it for a few weeks and then cut back like the cranberry relief suggests. i will still look for the cranberry relief when i go out of town next week. if i can get it there i will probably get my mom to mail it down to me so i won't have to use human supplements...

    i called the store i ordered the food from. they said that they would change my order for me so that is good. the cats will get just chicken, turkey, and duck flavour canned food from now on. i also bought some chicken wings and i will grind a few to see if i can get the cats to eat...

    i would donate food to a shelter except there are none here. also, there might be a lot of choice for canned food but not when you live in the middle of nowhere in a town of 1200 people, mostly seniors. i only know 2 other peoples with cats and they feed the worst of the worst dry food from...

    it might be a choice for you to have $100 of food laying around and not feeding it but honestly, i can't have $80 of food going to waste. i just can't do it. i can call the place tomorrow to see if they placed the order yet to see if i can change it. i can't get venison or anything other than...

    i just ordered 2 more cases of the fish food. i have no other choice but to feed it until it is gone. and, if i cut the fish then i will only be feeding the one flavour of food. they don't make any other flavour. the place where i order the food from only carries go!, orijen, and canidae...
