Spoon feeding did not eliminate it. That's what I mean - nothing I try works. It's very frustrating. She will be on Nature's Variety wet chicken food starting tomorrow. Maybe the lack of fish oil will make a difference, but I'm not holding my breath. I know Raven couldn't tolerate too much fish...

The black gunk has been there since I got her and she's been off chicken for a couple of months before today. I didn't know I didn't have to transition if it's wet food

@mrsgreenjeans  for years and still continues to be, the general consensus among vets is to introduce a new food over the course of 7-10 days. It's only recently I am seeing that may not have to be the case, but I don't know enough about it yet so I am on the fence. I went and bought her...

So basically the Natural Balance LID is not a true LID? Also, I am really on the fence about "transitioning" when changing brands of food. The more research I did, the more it seems to be a myth, especially if your cat is having issues. Look how long the myth about not rotating foods/proteins...

If he checked for Stomatitis he didn't mention, but it doesn't seem to match and her gums are getting better. I think they are the least of my worries right now since they are getting better, but did seem to fit in the whole picture. When I raised her dish she was not eating fast because at...

She only had diarrhea when she was on pumpkin and when she was on the other probiotic I tried before the diagnosis. And even then, she was only going once a day and it was more soft than a runny diarrhea - See? Weird!  Also, I am well-aware to give the antibiotic and probiotic a minimum for 2...

Thanks for the reply - The testing was right when she turned 6 months.  As far as food, I have tried both Wellness Kitten brands, regular Wellness, Merrick and a couple different NB's. I looked at Nature's Variety and the other 95% meat wet foods, but they said for kittens they need 2 cans a...

Hi All, This will be long. Sorry in advance and thank you to anyone who reads it in its entirety!! I am really hoping someone has either been through this or knows someone who has. My kitten is now 6 months old and no matter what I do, these symptoms are not going away. I am not happy with my...

No, she is a silver tabby

I also forgot to mention that I  have tried pure pumpkin and it didn't help - First she was on Wellness, then I tried Merrick, then Wellness Core and I just transitioned her on to Natural Balance. She just started it completely last Friday. At one point I worried it was my fault because when I...

I forgot to mention that I do that - Might have been my post lol

My kitten will be 5 months old next week - I did post part of her issue somewhere else on here..  My issue is that she seems  to gag/burp after she eats. This has been pretty much since I brought her home at 8 weeks old. I thought it was from her eating too fast because she eats way too fast...

Ok, now I am in a pickle lol. I have one can left of her Wellness Core kitten and I told the owner of the pet food store almost two weeks  ago that I needed him to order the food. They are out and order won't be in until Tuesday. I will be out of food for Luna tomorrow night. I called Petsmart...

Yeah, it's a tough call as to what is causing this - I hate not knowing and I hate that I am having a hard time fixing it - It could be serious - It could be nothing - It could be an intolerance - it could be something she outgrows on its own - and it could be my fault - The only thing we know...

I did find the food at a store close to me via the website, but money is an issue right now. I am currently looking for work, so I think raw food will have to wait. I really hope there is an easier fix. Perhaps I am not giving it enough time. I'm just really worried and scared. I know where it...

I do feel bad, especially if it is my fault for not transitioning her when I got her. I didn't think it was a big deal to put her right on wet and stop the dry at 8 weeks old. People start cats and kittens on new food all the time without transitioning. Like if you get a kitten from someone and...

Her mouth has been checked. She has seen the vet twice since I have had her. I am starting to wonder if it is my fault. When I got her at 8 weeks old, I didn't continue her diet of dry food that the foster home had her on. I immediately put her on wet food. I thought it would be okay at that age...

She has been dewormed and her poop has been checked. At this point, we can't find anything wrong with her. Haven't done blood work, but I plan on doing basic blood work before she gets spayed if this isn't fixed. However, I am wondering about the intolerance to chicken because she is failing to...

It's worrisome because I have been trying to figure it out so that I can help her, but I have been unable to. I use smaller portions on a large dinner plate, which does slow her down, but she is still gagging/burping or whatever it is - That gag/sneeze thing freaks me out. I haven't been able to...

Hi, My kitten is now 4 months old and I have had her since she was 8 weeks. She originally came from a hoarder environment, so I think has food issues. However, my concern is that she definitely eats too fast, but she gags after eating (no vomit) and sometimes does this thing where she...
