    a/d, c/d, r/f, etc in prescription diets?

    Found this which gives some interesting information http://www.mypetsdoctor.com/hills-prescription-diets-alphabet-soup. The d stands for diet, the k for example in k/d would be kidney diet, h/d heart diet. From what I found c/d had been cat diet until Hills formulated a canine version of the...

    What's one positive thing you can say about the last 24 hours of your life?

    I am grateful to have a warm home. Currently it is 1°F right now and feels like it is -11° out. Happy that my cats and myself are bundled up nice and warm inside.

    Thanks Ondine, I went through a few different names before I settled on these a week after I got them. LaRussa my older boys are like "Snow...what's the big deal." Now Taz my 2 year old guy goes crazy when any bug gets into the place. This summer a cicada got in and Taz got a hold of it and...

    need help selecting a litter

    I have been a long time user of Tidy Cats. Recently tried Cats Pride and have been happy with it. So far it seems to be low dust, have not seen any dust clouds when topping off the boxes or scooping. As mentioned clumps hard. Tracking doesn't seem to be any worse than any of the other clay...

    Free to a good home -- all 7 of 'em

    Heard those crashes more than once caused by my 2 year old boy. Luckily I haven't unpacked my breakables from my last move 2 years ago. He does find ways to get on everything, the fridge, top shelf of the closet top of my large bookshelves that are at least 6 feet tall. He even figured how to...

    Sunday's question of the day 12/8

    Yes it does snow here. I like the snow only if I don't have to go out in it :D. It seems that the older I get the more I dislike driving when the roads are icy or snowy, if I don't have to go out I don't. Unfortunately I have to work and the weather and my work schedule tend not to work to...

    Dear anyone with an "Indoors Only" cat.

    Great advice that has been given. Screens in the windows are important if you are going to have the windows open. My cats have alwaus been indoor cats and I have never seen anything showing that this has stressed them out. I do have plenty of toys around for them to play with, a cat tree that...

    Litter box cleaning behavior

    Definitly was a "monkey see, monkey do" moment. I kept expecting my fourth boy to join in since he was right there chirping away. He however decided to wait. More interested in me finishing and feeding them. My boys definitly did not disappoint last night. Now if they would only be as...

    Litter box cleaning behavior

    This is not so much a how to change, but is a behavior that I noticed in my cats, especially my two 3 month old boys. Any time I go to scoop out the litter boxes at least one cat, usually the kittens will get in the box to investigate what I am doing. Sometimes after I finish scooping one of...

    Dyed Cats

    No I would not dye my cats' fur. Most cats are not crazy about getting wet, and if you look up the directions for dyeing a cat one of the steps is giving them a bath. If someone is forcing a cat that doesn't like baths to have one, I would consider that to be cruel. Yes this may not be as...

    Litter

    Does she cry out before and after using the litter box or is it during? My 3 month old boys use to let me know their intentions when I first brought them home about a month ago. Now the silly boys tend to wait until I am scooping the boxes and usually will hop in to do their business. I agree...

    Kidney Failure

    Sorry for the diagnoisis that you got for your cat. The second site that cprcheetah gave I have found to be very helpful http://www.felinecrf.org/ A few of the main things to focus on is feeding a diet that is low in phosphorus, the prescription Hills kd is very low in phosphorus. If your cat...
