OMG! One more reason to NOT declaw... by Sherry

The Nutrition Thing. by Kalyahna

Peeing - perhaps not the run-of-the-mill reasons by Jeff Traigle

Protein by Jerold Pearson
Okay, I'm REALLY confused now. I've been reading the articles about nutrition that have been cited in this newsgroup, and some of them say that lots of protein (especially meat-based protein) is good for cats.

$200 dental cleaning? by John
So I took my cat for a regular check up today, and the vet showed me that his gums are kind of red--and suggested a $200 dental cleaning! That seems to be quite much. Is this a normal price? Should I get a second opinion?
