My cats are 12 years old. I'd like to have them be raw fed without a grinder, or are they too set in their ways to learn to chew and swallow bones, or will I not have to spend $100 I really shouldn't be?
My cats weren't completely on raw (liver there, hamburger here), but now they can't do it at all. My mom is moving into a friend's house until his tenants leave and I don't think he'd like all the grinders and meat filled freezer. Plus, he feeds his dog Science Diet so would he really...
Both of my cats are former barn cats and they see desperate to go outside sometimes. However, being former barn cats, they are somewhat skittish. Is there any harness that doesn't require slipping their legs or head into (which stress them out)-just snap and go? Any advice would be great.
My mom's new house comes with a bird (don't ask, and I think it's pretty irresponsible). No idea what kind, but since it's singular it's probably not like a finch. I hope it's not like a cockatoo or macaw since they're supposedly like having another child and very high care. Um, so does anyone...
After a pretty awful experience with ToTW (they did fine-but the feed store sold really broken looking bags and didn't care when I complained), I'm looking into Evo. But how long do the 15.4 bags of food last, if the 2 cats share a 5.5 ounce can of wet 5 times a week? They're 8 or 9 lbs, pretty...
I found a cat harness lying around at my grandmother's house and decided to test it on her cat Snickers (she is extremely docile and will take hours of being poked and prodded at without a peep-so I didn't have to deal with struggling). She escaped it very quickly! What is a harness that would...
Fatty has been randomly jumping at things-quickly and loudly! Seriously, she jumped at toy and I gasped. I recently switched from Nutro to Felidae, so the lack of corn (filler) might be giving her new energy?
It makes me so mad. One of the people on a message board I'm on is giving up his cats because they stopped using the litterbox when they moved. And he said, "I wanted a dog anyway. They don't *swear* next to the litter box." Needless to say, I can't visit there after 3 other people agreed with...
I'm under 18 and don't have a job so I'm not directly spending my cats money, but when my mom and I got into an arguement because she said she didn't want to feed the cats wet or raw food because they're fine even after they have puked 3 times in the last 2 weeks and have shed a lot and if you...
Tonight Fatty has proved herself a master huntress. She went after Da Bird claws out, standing on her hind, and jumping every which way on and off the furniture. It's the first time she's EVER done this for me, and I was proud at first. However, I have three major concerns.
A. When she was...
Until recently,I bought a lot of my pet supplies from stores that sell animals. None of them treat their animals terribly, so I didn't see the problem. Recently though my friend showed me this website: petstorecruelty.com. It turns out that all pet store animals come from places where they are...
Today my cats had some lightly cooked (raw hurts their tummies at least for now) chicken mixed with their canned food. Can't wait until they are fully on raw.
It's basically an on the side supplement but according to Dr. Elizabeth Hodgkins it can be fed as an all-in-one. You add it to ground meats with bones and organs. Anyone have any experience with this?
Fatty used to be a bit of a grump around me. If I petted her too much in the wrong places, giving me a nip was a-okay. She also meowed like crazy all night and ran right down the hallway if I approached her.
Well, not anymore! Not only does she sometimes follow me, she likes me even more than...
I'm planning to feed raw food but my family just had to make a pretty big cut in budget, so the recipe I'm planning to do just won't cut it (75 cents a day!). However, I really want the best for my cats. What is a good recipe? I don't have a huge variety of meats and I'm not that comfortable...
I am using liver, heart, and meat w/bone in my recipe. What are some good, affordable all-in-one supplements to use? I won't feed different vitamins together because I'm a little OCD and I'd probably worry I'd not put the "right" mix in.
