    My 8 year old newly adopted cat will not eat

    I will and thank you for your suggestions. Not only is she grieving her other human mom, but I understand that she is also grieving her brother, who recently died himself. I will make that appointment with my vet as well. I need to be assured that there is nothing medically keeping her from...

    My 8 year old newly adopted cat will not eat

    She is not an overweight cat, she weighed 11.8 lbs on Monday. That is a pretty good size for a female and I am grateful she was not a tiny little girl under these circumstances. I did have her in a closed-off room for the first 3 days and all she would do is stay in her safe place she chose...

    My 8 year old newly adopted cat will not eat

    On Monday, 7/24/23, I brought home an 8-year-old female dilute tortie that I adopted from a shelter. My problem with her is that she hardly will eat. Her foster mother at the shelter told me that she has been at the shelter for 2 months. Her human mother was elderly and passed away suddenly...

    Dealing With The Guilt Of Ending A Life

    We have to trust our decision. We know we made it in love, and it was made in the best interest of our loved cat. If we don't trust our gut feeling in a time such as this, we will drive ourselves crazy. I very well may be going through this same event this afternoon with my Katy. We both...

    Carcinoma, Neoplasm

    I did try using a toppers, I crunched up some temptations and Greenies then sprinkled them on top of some wet, and even dry Kitten Chow. She did go for it, which of course made me happy!!

    Carcinoma, Neoplasm

    Thank you for your kind reply. Katy too does seem to respond better to dry food than wet anymore, and as both of our vets have said, let them eat what they want. What I have found interesting is that she really goes for sardines and trout, (both from the can), but not so much salmon in the...

    Carcinoma, Neoplasm

    Thank you Neely for your response. I am glad to say I am not at the point where I need to syringe feed her, though I have done some spoon-feeding of baby food. The Hills Prescription Diet Critical/Restoration Care is something I have not known to try. I will be sure and get a can today and...

    Carcinoma, Neoplasm

    My cat has recently been diagnosed with carcinoma neoplasm, cancer of her mammary glands. She of course is under the care of her vet. My specific purpose for posting this in a forum is that I am having trouble getting her to eat. She thumbs her nose at all of her favorite canned cat foods...

    Feral Kitten who Bites and Scratches During Playtime

    I have a friend who has opened up her home to an 8 -10 week old kitten who has been living on the streets all alone for about four weeks now. There has been no mother or siblings anywhere around. She has been all alone, by herself, with no mother, siblings, no one. The kitten has warmed up...

    Finding it Hard to find Wet Food Over the Internet these days.

    You are right about Sheba, The only flavors are the Turkey and Chicken pates which Katy is sick of as well. She misses the other flavors and in "grilled" style, especially the trout, her favorite! I will look into PetCo and Pet Super Market as well as Amazon, instead of looking online into the...

    Finding it Hard to find Wet Food Over the Internet these days.

    I have tried Walmart both online and at my local store. I tell you, supply is way down both online and at the stores. What I can do though is try another Walmart at another, a larger town. I have not thought of Target, will try that store online. I will also try Pet Supplies Plus. I know...

    Finding it Hard to find Wet Food Over the Internet these days.

    Chewey, Pet Smart, and Tractor Supply are out of my cat's favorite Fancy Feast and Sheba wet foods. With Covid going on, I now find all my online stores are out of my cat's favorite foods! Does anyone know of an online supplier that is not out of wet food??
