    What litter is most like S'wheat scoop?

    I've been using s'wheat scoop but the online store I order from is too expensive. I want to change litter to one found on amazon.ca. What litter is most like s'wheat scoop? I bought Garfield but it's white, and very un-litter-like. A bit of history: Poppy was declawed (not by me!) years ago...

    Electric Can Opener

    I've been popping the covers off the Weruva and tins of Fancy Feast, but am finding it hard to do that due to arthritis in my hands. I occasionally use a manual can opener, but wondered if there's a recommendation for a cheap electric can opener that opens the Fancy Feast tin and the Weruva...

    Treats Available In Canada

    I'm looking for suggestions for cat treats easily available in Canada. Poppy is a picky eater, and she's also fish-sensitive (she gets a running sore on her face when she eats foods containing fish of any kind). So I've become a reader of food labels and we've long since settled on her wet...

    Wellness Kittles In Canada (or Online That Ship Here)

    Poppy develops sores on her face with wet (canned) food containing fish so she gets poultry-only food. I know cats don't need treats, but I'd like to give her the occasional treat, too. I've long since weaned her off the Temptations, which she loved, but I wasn't impressed with the ingredients...

    Poppy is a former shelter cat, with me now for 5 years+. She still doesn't like to be picked up and still "poops" outside her litter box (the latter a longstanding behavior, possibly related to her being declawed by former owners).

    Wet (Canned) Food questions

    I posted an update on Poppy in another forum. Poppy has been with me since January 2011. Poppy was a shelter cat, came with "issues," most of which have resolved. She will always be on wet (canned) food, tho', because of a tendency toward constipation.  I'm a pensioner, so on limited income...

    Poppy

    Poppy's story: SPCA shelter cat, female, spayed, almost 5 years old, declawed by original owner. Original owner (OO) died, wife dumped my new girl at SPCA, saying she couldn't handle her because Poppy was distraught at losing owner, and anxious bigtime when wife went out and left Poppy alone. OO...
