I searched the thread and found nothing on this so I have to ask. Do you have an opinion on Chicken Feed used as a litter? I used it for two or three years, but recently switched to Nature's Miracle and Arm & Hammer High Performance for the following reasons. 1. We have a problem with leaks in...

I dropped my Stinker off this morning to be checked for a UTI and sure enough, he has crystals really bad. The vet said he'd never seen 'em so bad before. That makes the 4th cat that I know has had crystals in my group, (one of those a female), so I am coming to the conclusion that is is the...

This morning we were awakened at 7:30 by one of the cats Yelling for me as he lay beside the bed on the floor. This is definitely unusual because all of our gang generally sleeps as late as we do and we are night owls. I mention this because when one of the kibs holler for me I know something is...

I've read about various people loving their Furminator, but the cost always seems so outrageous to me that I got one of those knock-offs for less money and was really not terribly happy with it because in order to groom pet from the other side it required that the blade be removed and turned...

I received my order of Orijen Cat Food yesterday.and of course my crew seems to really like it. I'm using Nutro Max Cat Adult and they all seem to like it, but I've been hoping to find a good food to mix in for variety sake. One of my considerations has to be something good for urinary tract...

I see a lot of people using the by Nature wet food. What's the opinion on their dry food? by Nature Natural Chicken Flavor Adult Dry Cat Food

I posted last May about Lippy, my last feral to be fixed, and today after our cuddle session I simply have to share about his progress. Here's the link to that thread. It took me nearly two years to be able to trap him, (he was totally untouchable), and he ended up spending nearly a month in...

My last trip to the pet supply store I decided to pick up some Felidae to mix in with their Max Cat, thinking how much my babies would enjoy the variety since not all seem extremely fond of the Max cat alone. I also got a box of Wysong Uretic since the vet said that would be best for Nugie...

I took Sassy in, (with a stool sample), to the vet about 3 weeks ago. My concern was that she didn't seem to be gaining weight had a soft stool and was showing her third eyelid on occasion, although she seemed otherwise healthy. The vet checked her over and said she seemed to be fine, but she...

I need to know the best way to store poo for a vet appointment tomorrow. With so many cats in the house I don't often get an opportunity to bring in a sample, but got lucky today. Should it be refrigerated or not? (Tried searching, but too many to go through with inexact results.) I'm taking...

I was looking of the site for Chicken Soup for the Cat Lovers Soul to see what they had to say about their food and UTI's, if anything. Following is a statement they make in regards to such on their FAQ page. My cat has bladder problems. Do you have a diet for this? We do not manufacture...

I just posted about my Precious that came home after being missing for 6 months. Today I took her to the vet to be checked out since she seemed to be increasingly lethargic and her breathing was too rapid for my comfort. I had checked her temp with one of those ear thermometers yesterday and...

Yesterday as I went from our house to the MIL's for her evening meds, I stopped as always to check the food in the cat house. Surprisingly, when I opened the door there was what looked to be a grey & white kitten in there eating and startled it was looking down for the way out. I said, "What do...

This has been anything but a boring past few days for me. Last week someone peed on my bed. I took up all the bedding, cleaned the spot and hoped it wouldn't happen again or that I would at least know who the culprit is if it did. A few days ago someone peed on the bed again while we were...

I've posted before about Nugent and his struvite crystals. He is back on antibiotics because he still has crystals and another UTI. The vet said don't give anymore Wysong Uretic and stick with the low/ph. He also said Nugent should lose 5 lbs. I find him staying on the low/ph dry and losing...

It's almost time to do the cat food shopping for the month and I'm wondering if kitten food might be better for the outside guys? I may be off base with this thinking so that's why I'm asking. Being in Michigan, winter is really, really winter and they deal with the cold and snow a lot. It...

I just purchased some canned food at PetFoodDirect that seems to be pretty good for an excellent price. Here is the link for the brand I bought which is called Natural Life. Here is the code for a 20% off coupon. PET3367 Below is the ingredients and analysis for one of their foods so you have...

Would this be a good food for a cat that has been diagnosed with Struvite Crystals? The vet gave me a prescription diet, but I am looking for other options that I can maybe mix in for all of them. The prescription food is Eukanuba Low PH/S. The first day home, Nugie ate the canned food with...

Boo is eating Natural Balance Venison & Pea right now. I told the vet rabbit had also been recommended and she said that would be even better. I found three brands on petfooddirect that I could give her for her meals and I am thinking that the PetGuard Rabbit & Rice might be my best bet, but...

Last night while I was in the bathroom and petting Nugie and I saw a couple spots of liquid on the floor with spots of blood in them. The first thing I did was check my feet since I often have little wounds I don't notice till I see the blood on something. For once it wasn't me. I then rolled...
