Diet change revisited by
KenK
Took Emily back to the vet last Wednesday. Prescribed steroids - says she's
seen that help in such situations. Probably be a week or more before I see
any change. One good thing, she doesn't mind the liquid dose - too much.
Smells good to me too!
Her appetite seems to be falling off a bit -...

Richard Pitcairn's cat/dog food book by
KenK
If you've read Pitcairn's homemade pet food book:
In his book, Pitcairn barely mantions fiber during his feeding
discussions, once about the poor fiber sources in commercial food (only
'fiber' entry in index) , and in a table of recommended food additives it
shows the brewer's/nutritional yeast...

Rave for 'World's Best Cat Litter' by
Kalmia
I'll never switch. It clumps well, does NOT stick to side or bottom
of the litter box, very little dust, every bit is used, and not
tracked all over the house. What's not to like? Comes in small bag
too - no breaking your back with the heavy bags or pails. $6.49 -
not bad, considering you'll...

Tendon Injury by
tomcraig5
One of my cats came limping into the kitchen a few days ago, holding
his right, rear leg in the air, seemingly unable to put weight on it.
The local vets thinks it's a badly strained tendon in the hip region,
and I'm trying to find something to aid his healing process and make
him more comfortable....

allergy eyes by
jmc[_2_]
When cats have allergies that cause watery eyes, is there anything that
can be done about it? Only one eye is affected - been discussed with
the vet in the past but so far she hasn't offered anything, and, of
course, starting last night her eye is worse than usual (she's a little
squinty). ...

cat box by
jmc[_2_]
Suddenly, without warning, MLB exclaimed (9/13/2010 7:17 PM):
How is her size compared to the box? Is there room for her to do it
without hanging over the side?
I'm guessing this is a reply to my post. The boxes are huge, multicat
boxes. When Meep is a good weight she's about 8#, so an...

Well, poop! At wits end! by
Rene
My guess is that she might sometimes find defecating difficult and she
associates that with the current box (and possibly even with your
bathroom area).
I suggest trying this: place a second box in your kitchen or other
area *away from* your bathroom. If you're concerned about cleaning up
stool,...

Cat rejecting microchip?? by
John Ross Mc Master
An 11 year old cat who was microchipped 10+ years ago seems to be
rejecting the chip. Has anyone ever heard of this before?
The (edited) email I recieved is below.
I noticed a lump by Archie's "shoulder blade"...
days later he lost his hair there, the size of a palm!
So I took him in today.

How to calculate caloric intake of nutrients by
JEP
A paper I saw (I think someone in this group cited it) suggests that the
caloric intake target of cats yields "a macronutrient energy composition of
52% protein, 36% fat and 12% carbohydrate."
My question: How do I calculate caloric intake of macronutrients? Is that
pretty much the same thing...
