little drops any where in the house, though he is potty trained. he
never did this before. I took him to the Gov. Vet hospital. The doctor
gave him 2 injections and B-Complex syrup to be given 3 times a day,
but no change. What should i do.
one thing more the penis spot my my cat stays dark red. I dont know
why/?


You can start by giving them canned food. Animals require a particular
enzyme in order to digest and utilize food properly. This enzyme is
found in the stomachs of all animals...except cats. Cats get this enzyme
from killing and eating other animals, stomachs included. But potatoes
and fish meat won't supply this very necessary substance. Makers of cat
food fortify their products with this enzyme. Without it, serious
illness will result. You're already seeing the effects of your cats'
improper diet.

Have them checked for urinary tract infection and other possible
infections. Antibiotics plus a permanent change in diet seems the proper course.

Not sure what the potattoes are for. Regular fish is not good for
cats, except as a treat. Fish has to be supplemented or it will make
the cat sick.

Why not just give the cat some regular cat food? Something designed
for the proper nutrition of a cat?

Eathing canned food provides most of his water. However, putting several
bowls around in different places really helps encourage more drinking. I'm
glad you found a vet. Fish may be your problem. My vet, who is a feline
specialist, says that fish has too many minerals, particularly for male
cats. If you have been giving it to him regularly, he may not be able to
process that. Some cats do not have a problem, but some do. It looks like
yours is maybe one of those. Good luck and let us know if he gets better.

OK, one question, you said you DON'T give them canned food in one post and
you do in this post. Which is it.

ok guys to let you know......... these are not my cats...... one of my
friends have them..... we live in Pakistan..... here its really hard
to get a good vet..... we have either no vets or some government
hospitals in big cities (its even harder to find any cat specialist
there)...... so whenever we encounter any problem regarding pets
"internet" is our only source...... we friends have made a group so
tat we share our problem regarding health of pets..... if the vet is
unable to diagnose we search for cure on the net ......... i hope u
understand.... by the way i will gather up ur suggestions and post
them to my friend..... so plzz if anyone is a vet here or able to
help..... plzzzz don`t make fun of us and try to help us


How do you post through an ISP from Melbourne, Australia if you're in
Pakistan? Perhaps there's a way, but it's seems suspicious.

I checked the NNTP IP in all three messages and it comes up Monaco. Now, I
don't know how that would work through Pakistan, but is seems an odd troll.
Not very inflamatory. Innocuous subject really. Not that there aren't some
conflicting statements, but I don't see where you are pulling up Melbourne
for an IP.

No, any canned food designed for cats will have the things
your cat needs. Some are better than others but ALL are
better than people food. What is at stake: your cat could
go blind if fed people food that does not have the things
cats need in it.

Somebody here said that cats drink more if they have
a few bowls of water in different places in the house.
I tried it and it works! Also, feeding canned food
will help give kitty water. Good luck, and thanks
for taking such good care of your kitty. I'm sure
she will bring you joy for years to come.

I tend to doubt this guy's a troll. If he's in Pakistan, and accessing the
Internet from cafes and such, those computers could be using a variety of
Usenet news servers.
I know this will seem dumb, but I can't figure out how to see the IP of a
message using OE. When I look at my own messages, it shows that I'm posting
through uni-berlin.de, because I'm using Individual.Net. But, my Internet
access is from Comcast in Massachusetts. I can't see where it shows that
I'm in even in the US.

The original question was about someone else's cats.

Canned food is just fine for a cat. If you have any dry cat food available,
you can give some for snacks. It is better that they eat mostly canned.

No problem!

If he's eating all canned, then he doesn't need to drink much water. Like
others have said, if you put a variety of bowls around the house, he might
be more interested.
