    How far along is my cat ??

    What a beautiful momma cat! She reminds me of my kitty Chancy I had when I was younger. The kittens are gaining nicely, too.

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    If you look back though this thread you'll see I used a cat litter brand from Tractor Supply for almost a year. It worked really well for about 6 months of that year. Then, like all other sodium benotite litter I've tried, it got very dusty. I've been using Dr Elsey's Perfect Unscented for...

    Is the Tesco brand made of horse hooves? :p

    Kitten Problems

    Friday is not soon enough. Call the vet and explain his symptoms and see if he can work him in early (today). If he,can't see another vet, if one's not available see if he's willing to prescribe some worm and ear mite meds now with the agreement that you will keep your appointment on Friday.

    what's your favorite cat litter?

    Pretty much any of Dr Elsey's products are a good buy. I hate that it took me so long to try the Ultra Precious Cat formula. The dust alone from those other brands was ridiculous. I hate to think what it was doing to my cat's lungs. There's hardly any dust in the Dr. Elsey's. It also clumps very...

    Anyone else on the Site have a Highland Lynx? Best suggestions for Exercise?

    Pedigree papers can only be obtained if a cat is obtained from a licensed breeder. I have heard of people having unregistered cats DNA tested to see what percentage of a particular breed is present. This is expensive and really only for entertainment purposes.

    Show me your "stink eyed" cat pictures!!

    My cats do the same thing when they're mad at me. They turn around and have their hind end facing me. I think it's their way of saying "talk to the hand".

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    Wow! Fifteen? That's a lot even for a rescue. I can see where budgeting comes into play then. I really can't see myself having more than 2... of course the 2 I have happen to be very high maintenance so there's that. I know the next cat I adopt (which will hopefully be in a decade or so) will...

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    Update: The Dr Elsey's has been a dream so far. I wish I had found it years ago.

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    It's more expensive (obviously), but the Doc Elsey's Ultra is pretty darn good so far. It clumps up like you wouldn't believe so it should last a while. It's also the lowest dust i've ever seen in a clay litter. It has a bc wry fine dust that you can just barely feel on your cat's coat. There is...

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    So far it reminds me of the Tractor Supply brand we've discussed several times in this thread. When i first started using it, it had very little dust. After 6 months of happy dust free kitties, it suddenly got very dusty. There's no smell like the TSC litter, too. I hate that perfume smell some...

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    I see your user name is @SilverPersian. I have a Domestic Long Hair with a very Persian like coat. It's very "cottony", and holds on to litter dust. I hate that b/c sometimes she comes to sit with me and a big cloud of litter dust erupts from her fur when she is stroked. I'm going to Petco...

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    I think I'm going to give the Dr Elsey's a try. My girls are really balking as going back to the crumbles. I never should have switched them back to clay litter as now it's all they want.

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    So it doesn't disintegrate like feline pine, it swells instead? Are the pellets sticky or messy once they've done their business? Both my girls are aggressive diggers and occasionally get litter stuck on their paws.

    Chicken Crumbles as cat litter.

    I think i'm going to try out the corn cob bedding next time. I bought a new bag of crumbles and after going back to clay for 6 months my girls don't like the crumble anymore. Does the corn cob bedding smell very strongly of corn, or is it more muted? This batch of crumble is especially "barn...

    Show me your "stink eyed" cat pictures!!

    Blue cats are genetically predisposed to this. I prefer to call it "a dirty look" more so than "The Stink-Eye". I get more dirty looks than i can count from my blue kitty.

    That cat is more ornery than Oksana, and that's saying something :rolleyes:

    Domestic Longhairs in the wild...

    So sorry for your loss. I had a kitty live to be 18. Her death was by far the worst day of my life. RIP Chancy.
