Re: Picky eater cats can be a danger to themselves

Good new is, we got box of Purina Friskies which she used to eat at one point until she got bored of it and she loved it, for now. Purina is good, but it gives the persians soft stool if they eat it for too long, at least it did last time we had that. Got a bag of Whiskas as well, even tho it's not ...

EXACTLY!

Picky eater cats can be a danger to themselves

https://i.imgur.com/Orn2OwY.jpg Ever since Kala was a baby she hasn't been able to eat new foods without serious getting used to on my part, she simply doesn't "detect" food she hasn't tried as food at all, sniffs it and walks away. She has to first taste it and even then it's a gamble if...

Re: What is it with renal food?

I find this to be the case with wet food, period. They go through periods of liking and then disliking certain wet foods or outright completely cutting them off. I've had Kala beg for wet food for an hour or two straight, despite having eaten well just to give it to her and she refuses to eat it, sa...

Re: Help sos

Some cats like dry food more, some a mix of both, some swear by wet food. Molly and Kay's posts are spot on, so please don't worry too much about it. Sometimes a cat changes their preference. Cut down on the treats and just give her dry food. She which type of dry food she likes, even if it's not th...

They weren't fixed when they were together, did you neuter the male before moving in with your friend? If not that's one of the main reasons for his aggression, it's very dangerous keeping a fully intact male who has no access to females and on top of everything is under immense stress from moving, ...

I love both types, but I'd rather stick to Doll Faced ones due to the other ones potential health issues, not...

Mila had tortitude right until she had her kittens, not sure if she counts as a tortie or diluted calico but she was so hyper for a persian, nothing like Spaska tho, we haven't seen anything like this.

I've had 3 female cats spayed prior to Spaska, we almost lost Mila to a bacterial infection but the other two, Anastasia and Kala had zero issues. With Spaska now it's like I've never ever done this before, it's completely different. She went into surgery at 11AM, it was a painless quick surgery and...

Just a quick update if it's not a problem. Mila shows no signs of being unwell inspite of her bloodwork being off.

Back from the vets So far, things are looking good, we're now waiting on her bloodwork later today. For the moment her heart is excellent and so are her lungs tho they do show signs of calcification/damage from prior issues and the heatstroke. They can't do MRI's and such to check her brain apparent...
