missing cat by
Calvin Rice
Purposely trying to keep this matter of fact, without any expressions of grief,
I'm curious to know if I've covered all the bases, and what the probabilities
might be, hoping to learn from the experience of others.
One of my cats disappeared last weekend. The last time I saw him was...

Royal Canin? by
Come What May 70
Is Royal Canin widely accepted as a high quality, premium cat food? If it
matters, I am referring specifically to the Sensible Choice Chicken Meal & Rice
Formula (adult).
Thanks in advance!

I started!). Group is down to 2 now after the oldest (3-4 years) had to be
euthanized because of large, inoperable malignant abdominal tumor. The 2

How hard is it to give subQ fluids? by
Bill
I got a call from my vet tonight (yes Sun.) and the bloodwork from our Fri.
visit does not look good. He says she has advanced kidney failure. However,
the good news from my point of view is that she seem to respond very well to
sub-cutaneous fluids he gave her on Fri. We agreed on a strategy that...

Any pilling tricks? by
Saffyr
Hello
You have my sympathy - I have a ginger girl who turns into the Tasmanian
Devil from warner cartoons when I try to give her pills - I got around it by
crushing the pill into a tiny bit of honey and using my pointer finger
scrape the honey from the spoon onto the top of my finger and wipe it...

Cat food questions by
Rachel
Hi, I've been reading with interest the threads about cat food. I live in
the UK and I'm finding it hard to find premium canned food. There is Denes
but Murphy doesn't like it. I haven't found anywhere else that sells Hills

Ginger-lyn Summer
My next-door neighbor came over last night with this question, and it
is one I could not answer. Our (irresponsible) neighbors across the

kittens get set up in a box....

Is Advantage safe? by
Emily
My vet really pushes Advantage as the best flea remedy for my cat, but I
worry about all of those chemicals - both for her health and my own. Is
Advantage really ok to use? Are there other alternatives for getting rid of
fleas?

Just read about what is really in cat food by
kate
I just read a book called "Food Pets Die For" and it is horrifying!!!
This woman did an extensive study about the ingredients which go into
cat and dog food. Almost all of the major brands include euthanized
cats and dogs in their formula, as well as all of the spoiled and
diseased parts of animals...

We hand rasied a litter & one kitten simply refused to eat
any kitty chow or dried food of any kind. When he was

As for starving him, a cat will starve to death before...
