Nutro, Science Diet, and MaxCat Canned by
Mary
These are the foods I got for my cats at Petsmart a couple of weeks ago.
Nutro is okay--they will eat it if I mash the chunks with a fork. (These are
the cats who are hooked on Fancy Feast Chopped Grill Feast.) Maxcat is the
same way--they want those chunks mashed or they will just lick the gravy...

flu. But after taking her to the vet after two weeks of...

Vaccine question by
Meg St. Clair
To preface, I'm a great believer in vaccinations for both pets and
people. However....
My indoor only cat has a reaction to rabies vaccines. When I got her,
at about 11 weeks, I took her in for the last of her kitten shots (if I
remember correctly). She developed a lump at the injection site. I...

she would be spayed right after adoption. Well...

Older Cat Vomiting Issue by
Carol A
My 13-14 year-old cat Abby is having trouble keeping her food down. It's not
a constant problem, but it's a messy one. It comes up almost immediately
after eating and is usually barely digested, so I don't even know if it's
made it to her stomach. I've tried cutting her portions back to 1/4 cup...

Denise
Has anyone had a similar experience?
We have three kittens all about six months. They're orphaned sisters
we fostered and then adopted. Yesterday they were spayed and came home
pretty miserable. This morning it's the same behavior and we're

They're normally very affectionate with each...

We've been having some problems with constipation in our kitty Miles
but it's not the usual kind of constipation. What's happening is that

Urine on Leather Chair by

Any advice on cleaning urine from a leather chair? My cat did this sometime
yesterday, and it sat all day. Luckily, I bought the extra 'stain safe'
coverage, but I don't know how long it will take to get a technician out.
Would really like to try getting some of it out myself.

She's been to the vet twice in the past couple of years to have this

Urine in carpeted hall that connects kitchen/bath/livingroom. It is impossible
to saturate with Nature's Miracle and leave it to dry. I have to put plastic
sheeting over it to walk and I think this is causing the stain to spread. Has
anyone been in a similar situation?
