Re: Fat cat needs to lose weight

I have tried to get him to exercise, he is just too fat. He would just lie down and move his paws :-0. I have just contacted purina who tell me that his pouches are approx 70 calories. I have worked out that to lose weight he needs 270 cals per day so I am going to take him back to 3 pouches per day...

Re: Advice please... Lucy has an allergy - but to what??

This allergy thing is terrible. I have a cat who has similar for whatever reasons. Not linked to anything or any time of the year. I am not in the habit of using the spot on treatments as my cats do not have fleas and I do not believe in giving chemicals un necessarily but since I have started using...

Re: Fat cat needs to lose weight

Ruth. That's why i thought I would feed pure protein replacing one pouch. I am aware that pouches also offer vitamins etc needed that chicken cannot provide but by replacing just one pouch he will still be getting that other stuff. The cereal added is carb so not really good for him. I started buyin...

Re: Fat cat needs to lose weight

Thanks all....the instructions say to feed 4 pouches fir a cat much smaller than him and i am feeding him according to the weight i want him to be. I thought that by providing more protein it would fill him for longer. If he gets to hungry, when he does eat, he throws it back.

Cyst

Hi. We have adopted an 11 year old neutered tom. His previous owner took him to the vet a few weeks ago with a cyst which the vet drained. He said it may fill.up again and it has very quickly. I think it will need removing. Does anyone know if this can be done under local anaesthetic?

Re: Advice needed please

Hi Thanks for your reply.....re-arranging is out of the question as I have such a small kitchen in the first place. As you say, they make the choices but I have to try and solve this one. Trying Talcum powder now then will try a pot of neat bleach in the hope that the fumes will sting her eyes befor...

Advice needed please

Hi I need some advice as I have tried all I can to solve this problem. I adopted a 4 year old semi feral cat in November last year. She confined herself to the kitchen to start with and chose a corner to use as her tray. For ease I placed a litter tray there although it is right by a cupboard which ...
