    I haven't watched it, but I read this article: Sacha Baron Cohen dupes politicians and gun lobbyists | Daily Mail Online :crackup::flail: "Kinder-guardians"!!!

    Moving To Another State, Fly Or Drive

    I would drive too. I drove 6 hours each way with my cat in her carrier and my mom. My cat hates to leave her home inside, but I was too worried about the summer heat, so I took her with me for the weekend. I covered her carrier with a blanket on 3 sides to help ease her. When she'd meow, I'd...

    How Much Weight Loss Is Too Much.

    Oh, yeah. Don't listen to me about Hill's Prescription a/d if it is IBD. I don't know if your cat can eat that. For the Mirtazapine, it sounds like people like it in the liquid form. Chew treats sound good. It was easiest on me and my cat in pill form, but that's just us. No liquid medication...

    I Need Help

    I found out through this website that hitting cats or trying to punish them after they do something doesn't work in terms of building correlations in cats' minds. They just get afraid of you or don't trust you. Maybe someone will post the threads I've seen mentioned in the past. I just get very...

    How Much Weight Loss Is Too Much.

    But if she'll eat baby food or anything else, I'd go with that instead of syringe feeding.

    How Much Weight Loss Is Too Much.

    I would ask if it's okay to syringe feed her some Hill's Prescription a/d wet food that has been mixed with water. Other TCS members have done this to get calories into their cat. Kitten replacement milk. I can't remember the other things they've tried. But to syringe feed her and to get the...

    Variety Or Not?

    It might be. After my cat got ill, she wouldn't touch what she used to eat. I think it was Fancy Feast maybe. Also, she no longer would touch Fortiflora or the Vet's Best tablets. I recently tried Fortiflora on her again and she likes it again.

    Variety Or Not?

    Did you see my other post above yours? But yes, cats!

    Variety Or Not?

    But @KarenKat I guess you're right about eating habits before adoption. My cat probably hardly ate or didn't eat much, so she's fine doing it now. =/

    Variety Or Not?

    My cat was a stray/semi-feral until someone called Animal Control on her. At least that's what the kill shelter told me when I called out of curiosity. Luckily, a rescue shelter picked her up and saved her. I think she was 7 lbs when I adopted her. Her goal weight is 8 lbs. I would have assumed...

    Variety Or Not?

    :yeah: For wet food, I believe in providing different flavors (not so much fish though) and textures from several different brands. However, my kitty Bonita disagrees and that's all that matters. :bicolorcat: I'm lucky to find 2 different wet foods at a time for her. Then, she gets tired and...

    Recognizing Or Recollection Of Former Owners

    I adopted my cat from a rescue shelter about the age of 3-8 depending on who is asked. I was told by the rescue shelter she was about 3-4 from her teeth, but later on a specialist said she was about 8-9. I used to wonder about her street life since she was a stray/semi-feral. I wondered where...

    First Night Away From Mum!

    :heartshape:You must love her a lot. I read that cats mostly sleep while you're gone. :sleepycat:If true, then you don't have to worry. Also, that's great that you have a cat sitter going twice a day to visit and take care of her. :catlove:Sending :vibes:

    Rice Is Cat Food - How Much Is Acceptable?

    "Rice is cat food" - I'm going to say No to this. No cat in the wild can cook rice to eat and they don't eat rice raw either. I remember from my college Biology class that evolution takes millions of years or at least hundreds of thousands. Our human existence actually hasn't been for very long...

    Recognizing Or Recollection Of Former Owners

    Could have just been the length and color maybe? My sister's former ginger cat was very excited by a female visitor years ago who had long, blonde hair. He sat on her shoulder and tried to clean her hair. I didn't witness this, but I heard the story. We all had dark hair and figured it was her...

    Mixing Wet And Dry?

    Did you say you have a "kitten who seems to always be hungry"? I think it's a good idea to feed the kitten whenever s/he is hungry. Maybe in another room away from the others if it isn't their feeding time. Posters on here say kittens need a lot of food and can never be overfed. For the picky...

    Time To Put Blue Buffalo On The Special Watch List

    You just have to go on the Dr. Elsey's website and go to the "Contact Us" section to complete a request for samples. They also sent a full size 5.5 oz can of turkey pate, which unfortunately was a big NO from my picky cat. I'd ask for the other flavors also like chicken pate. They mailed my...
