    Fluke Worm - Advice

    I'm having a parasite problem. Both of my cats have tested positive for Fluke Worms. I'm a raw feeder & I'm pretty sure the parasite came from a batch of lamb brains that I ordered from Raw Feeding Miami. I'll never know for sure but that's my gut feeling. To be on the safe side, I have thrown...

    Abrupt Food Change Diarrhea

    How long does this last? My cat eats a raw diet and is used to eating approximately 1 month of rabbit/beef mix, 1 month of turkey and 1 month of pork without digestive upset.

    Malibu, My Greatest Love

    I lost my best friend on Saturday 3/17/2018. He was born on 3/17/2006 and I had to put him to sleep on the morning of his 12th birthday. My friend says it is poetic that he passed away on his birthday. But I only feel heartbreak. Malibu has been my best friend for twelve years. Exactly 12...

    Fractured Tooth?

    My cat has something going in with his mouth today after I fed him breakfast. When he opens his mouth (to groom, for example) it almost looks and sounds like his teeth are grinding and he has to work to close his mouth. He eats Prey Model raw for breakfast and today he had rabbit chunks (raw...

    Hey guys, So I've just made a "bone broth" with some rabbit heads from Hare Today. I basically just took 3 rabbit heads from the package, put them in a crockpot, put enough filtered water to just cover the bones and a splash of apple cider vinegar.

    Hare Today Grinds - Thyroid Gland

    Hi guys, Since I've stopped using Alnutrin and began making my own supplement mix I had been wondering if I needed to include the Morton Lite salt in certain grinds from Hare Today. I know the rabbit contains the thyroid gland so it would not be needed for that one but instead of assuming that...

    Add Lite Salt?

    Would you guys add Lite Salt to the fine ground goat from Hare Today? I know you're supposed to add the salt if you're doing the chicken thigh recipe from catinfo.org, etc because that recipe lacks the thyroid gland and blood. I'm just not sure if you're supposed to add it when you're using...

    Omitting Egg Yolk from Ground Raw

    I'm having a problem with my cat Malibu and his food allergies. He has never had an allergy when he was on a canned diet before we started raw in June 2014. Nowadays, I feel like he is allergic to every single protein. You guys might remember me trying to find answers for this for a while now...

    Food Allergies - Need Support

    Guys, I can't catch a break with my 9 year old, Malibu since I switched him to a raw diet last June (2014). Over the past year, I have concluded that he has a red meat "intolerance": When he eats Rad Cat Lamb, he immediately vomits it back up. I have tried to reintroduce it incredibly slowly...

    Allergy? - Small Scabs on Neck

    Hi guys, I was giving Malibu a good scratching last night and noticed that he has a few small scabs around his neck area. Probably about 4 or 5 different spots. He is a (very) long-haired cat so they are difficult to find but definitely there if you are looking for them. I'm not sure how long...

    Toaster Oven and Cats

    I've been thinking about getting rid of my microwave and replacing it with a toaster oven. From what I remember though, toaster ovens get incredibly hot on the outside. I'm afraid my cats might walk by on the counter and accidentally touch it or something while I am cooking something and get...

    Liver Only - No Other Secreting Organ

    My cat Malibu is starting to have really smelly, mucous-y stool again. The first time this happened, I realized he couldn't handle lamb or beef. Well, I introduced pork recently and I thought he was doing just fine with it (he was having normal, raw poop). Over time, I'm noticing that it is...

    3 Year Purevax Rabies Vaccine

    Hi all! So I just read on Dr. Pierson's site (catinfo.org) that they finally brought the 3-year Purevax rabies vaccine to the market. I recently have decided that I no longer want my cats to be vaccinated but my vet MAY ask me to still do the rabies since it is mandatory in Louisiana. I'm...
