    Homeopathic Remedies

    I originally tried to post this in the article section regarding OTC meds, etc.: http://www.thecatsite.com/a/otc-medications-safe-for-cats. Let's just say I got a little "long winded" in my comment, so I couldn't post it there. I just wanted to comment on #9, Homeopathic Medicines. While it is...

    Declaw or not...my case in point, Abby

    A little background: Wee little kittens Abby, and his now Angel brother Tuffy, were found in a cemetery stuck to a headstone in late November of 1996. They were stuck to the headstone because they got on there to get warm in freezing temperatures and got frozen to the headstone. (There was a...

    How often do you supplement L-Lysine and for how long--and for what? And other questions. :)

    Recently I had a conversation with another member via PM about L-Lysine supplementation and how I was concerned. She can "out" herself, or not, if she wants since she knows I'm going to post in part my end of the conversation here. So how often do you supplement L-Lysine and for how long? For...

    Missing my Tuffy (Aug. 28, [est DOB] 1996 - July 17, 2004).

    In memory of my Tuffy… Tuffy was found in a cemetery the afternoon before a blizzard hit, with his brother, Abby. They were frozen/stuck to a headstone, which my boyfriend at the time, Nick, used a blow torch to warm the headstone so he could remove them both. Both of these wee little boys...

    Could use some prayers and healing vibes for my Uncle Jack...please.

    I found out a few hours ago that my beloved Uncle Jack had a stroke, with a blood clot in his brain, and weakness on one side. He's always been such a go-getter, and my totally whacky, fun, Uncle "Jack-a$$." You would never know he is close to 80. I am devastated, but Laurie (LDG) suggested I...

    What calcium to phosphorus ratio do you aim for in your raw diet?

    I have always aimed for ca:phos ratio of 1.3:1 for my kitties, but was wondering what others shoot for? I might re-think this if others could provide data to support going lower (not thinking any would want higher, but if you do, input is welcome). I think dogs don't need as high a ca:phos...

    Cost of kitty food and stool (poop) sizes -- what are your thoughts?

    Just me thinking out loud since cost of kitty food has been mentioned and compared in a previous thread, but didn't want to highjack that thread. This has probably been discussed before, so pardon this newbie to the group if that is the case. If you were to do a comparison of stool (poop)...

    Salt and water solution added to grocery store chicken...Oy.

    I have fed whole cutup chicken fryers, or chicken thighs and breasts, from my local grocery for many years. Recently I told my meat guy to make sure it is fresh, with no "marinade" of any sort. He told me that they do inject a salt/water solution into all their chicken (I'm not sure about other...

    Where's the cat contest? :)

    Hope this is the right place to post this. Yesterday I could see, and enter, the cat photo contest. Late yesterday and today I'm no longer seeing this pinned to the top of each page. I love looking at the entries! So...Where's the cat contest? Thanks!

    Raw pork and fat globules

    Hi all, I occasionally feed my kids raw ground pork with a calcium supplement (for ca:phos ratio), and a few other supplements including taurine. I have come across this statement, almost verbatim, on a few websites...

    Jules and the Kitty Krew :)

    Hi all! I just joined and wanted to introduce me and my three kitties. My name is Jules, and I've been a raw feeder for around seven years now. My kitties: Abby (Abbot), a rescued boy when he and his brother Tuffy were around 10 weeks old. They were found in a cemetery stuck to a headstone...
