    Thin, fussy kitty ( rescue)

    Hi again, Cinnamon does eat Kitten food and a local pet store gave us a ton of wet foods to try. They also gave us a sample of freeze dried raw. She loves it. The kittens are all eating Royal Canine kitten kibble. I will mention the KMR to the team too and the stage 2 baby food. She is so...

    Thin, fussy kitty ( rescue)

    Hi, Thanks for the response. Our vet checked her mouth and it all looks good. Being so young her teeth are in great shape.Her wet food is pure mush and she doesn't seem to mind eating the kibble anymore then wet, she just only grazes on food. As for a food allergy, I'm not sure. I will mention...

    Thin, fussy kitty ( rescue)

    Hey everyone :) It's been awhile since I've posted. I am now officially part of a four member cat rescue and have been crazy busy. Since January we have spayed or neutered 72 kitties :) We are feeling pretty happy with that number. We take in stray, abandoned kitties, have them fully vetted and...

    what's your favorite cat litter?

    I am presently trying out Arm and Hammer Essentials Natural clumping litter. It is made from corn fibers, and baking soda. So far it is great, very odor absorbing and low dust.

    Help! Kitty with intestinal lymphoma won't eat!

    I felt like my house was empty when Skippy died. I still had 2 dogs and another cat. They have such big personalities. They play such big roles in our lives. Grieve and cry, it's totally normal. It does get easier, but you will always miss him. Maybe someday you can give another cat a wonderful...

    sick kitty

    Keeping her warm, comfortable, and hydrated are great things to do. I agree with trying her with wet food if she isn't already. Having warm mist or steam is great too! Hopefully with some extra love your girl will be fine in no time. When my girl was feeling icky I brought her into the bathroom...

    Help! Kitty with intestinal lymphoma won't eat!

    When we let Skippy go we were all done. I think he was tired to try anymore and I was terrified to leave my house and leave him alone. It had completely taken over my life and I knew that wasn't right. There was only love and pain left :( so my husband brought him to the vet after we all said...

    Help! Kitty with intestinal lymphoma won't eat!

    On May 1st I had to let go of my twelve year old boy Skippy. He had cancer, he was half his size, could barely lift his head to drink and could not eat solids anymore. He also had moved his bowels in days. He would still purr whenever we spoke to him. He let me carry him around, wash his little...

    What Are You Reading? (Part Three)

    Of you want Distraction, the Outlander series even makes cranky toddlers and piles of laundry seem insignificant ;)As fr checking out the first two books, how long do you get to keep them. They are some hefty books, but actually Outlander is a somewhat shorter one. Ok, no more shoving Outlander...

    What Are You Reading? (Part Three)

    I haven't attempted Game of Thrones yet, my husband has read all of those, he enjoyed them. I did read the Hunger Games trilogy and I liked them. They are a pretty quick read but still good. My suggestion is Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series. I could rant and rave for the rest of my days about...
