Why is my kitten's tummy so fat and gurgling so much?
i got a bag of food from the petshop, i didnt realize it was for senior cats 7+ years old, my cats are barely 1 yet, does it really matter? cuz one of the cats puked it out ......its purina pro-plan and my cats are normal domestic ones i'd say tabby... one is black with long fur and the other is brownish grey tiger-like with shorter fur
is it ok to give my cats Senior cat food even if there young?
Well, i might be getting a cat soon, but its so far undecided. Right now im just trying to figure out what i would need because pretty much i have absolutly nothing for a cat... I've had cats before but we dont have any supplies or anything left. So some of my questions are:-whats the cheapest, but best food for your cat?-what kinds of supplies do i need? (basics)-how much food (wet) should i start off with?-whats cheaper/better:*purina tidy cats 27lb: 11.99*fresh step 20 lb: 5.99Is it better to (adopt) a kitten or an older cat, introducing to your house wise? Like, is it easier to get a young cat or kitten, or adult cat? Just, tell me some basics and what i need to get or to know. OH, and if i got a pair, should it be 2 boys, 2 girls, or 1 boy and 1 girl? THANKS :D(i thought it would be a common sense thing..)But no, i've never had to give away any cats.2 cats got lost and i think were taken in my our neighbors up the hill, because we see some that look alike around once in a while, and the other had gotten hit by a car. the previous cats were barn cats before we got them so they were outside a lot, but if i get another cat i will not let them outside, they will be house cats. I would never have to give them away.
What do i need for a cat?
I have a 7 year old Siamese names Skye. The past few years we have been struggling to find a good diet for her due to allergies. After feeding high quality dry kibble (vomiting) and then raw (refused to only eat that we ended up with feeding evo grain free canned 95% meat venison. After process of elimination we realized all along it was the chicken in the food. Years of itching and vomiting was because it was chicken she was allergic to and not what I had thought. She tolerates eating the evo but when we sit down to eat she act so pitiful like she is starving. I was wanting to find some meaty bones that I could give her occasionally as a treat. I have heard several different things about undercooked or raw pork and a chance of catching parasites. Some say NEVER feed it, some say sure no problem, and some say freeze it for a while first. Is it ok to feed raw pork neck bones with a bit of meat to my cat or is there a certain way to go about preparing it?? Or should I totally rule out giving it to her all together? I'd prefer the opinion of people who have fed raw before or still is not some person who gives their cat PURINA and stuff as a meal. icedtea74: I am feeding her a high quality canned food currently. The only ingredients are venison (meat, organs, & bone) and added vitamins such as taurine. I would just feed raw but she refuses to eat just that. My question is that I need to find something as a treat that is preferably raw and will take her a bit to eat and was wondering if this was ok or If anyone had any other suggestions.
A question about the B. A.R. F. diet for cats and raw pork?
I just switched his diet from Purina Cat Chow for indoor cats to a brand called The Goodlife Recipe which is made with natural ingredients. My mom wanted to buy it because she thought he'd like it better, I didn't read up on it like I should have, but it seemed to check out. His poop is a lighter whiteish color as opposed to the normal brown. Is it because of the food change? I know that can be an issue, but it seems a bit drastic and unhealthy. What should I do? switch back? feed him more/less? Please help. Thank you.
Why is my hedgehog's poop discolored?
Help me if you can, please. I’ve had my cat Mickey for 6 months. He’s about 2 years old (he was a stray that was rescued, and that’s what the vet estimates his age is), a poly-dactyl, and quite large - he’s about the size of a smallish medium dog. He has a little pooch, but he’s not overly obese. I have been feeding him Purina dry food since I’ve had him (Chicken formula). He’s picky (I tried to change his food once - fat chance), but with this new bag (purchased about 10 days ago), he’s hardly eating. At all. He shows no signs of illness, he can still eat & digest his treats just fine, but he’s barely eating. Of course, it’s showing in his temper. He tries to get my food (he almost jumped on my face for some barbeque sauce), he yowls much more (he’s a very loud and verbal cat as it is, he’s just more adamant and feisty about it), and he seems occasionally skittish. When I approach him to pet him, he sometimes shrinks back like I’m going to hit him (I DO NOT ABUSE ANIMALS). I have 2 other roommates, and there is another cat in the house. The two cats get along very well. I know one of my roommates is very kind to Mickey (the other cat is his), and although my other roommate isn’t the cleanliest, I don’t take him for one to hit cats. I don’t want to feed Mickey solely treats, and I’m starting to worry. I thought, “Well, if he’s hungry enough, he’ll eat,” but I’ve yet to see proof of that in his bowl. He’s not eating the other cat’s food, so I’m at a loss. Should I switch to wet food? A mix of wet & dry? Raw food? I’d ideally like something that will fill him up, keep him energized & healthy, and maybe slim him down a bit. I know there will be many opinions, and I’m welcome to all. Please help this momma stop worrying about her Mickey!!If anyone has any raw food cat recipes, could you guide me towards them? Thanks! UPDATE: I've tried a few more kinds of dry food to little avail. He'll eat a bit, then be done with it after the initial "sampling." He's not eating any differently, as to indicate tooth issues. I may do 1/2 dry and 1/2 wet tonight, just to see if it's the winner. UPDATE: I've tried a few more kinds of dry food to little avail.

Why won't the cat eat? Should I switch foods?
I adopted a kitten from the humane society earlier in the week and have been giving him purina one as that's what they've been feeding him. After doing some research I learned that purina is not good so I'm planning on switching his food. He has bad gas and his stool smells horrible. He's already been dewormed so I'm guessing he needs a change in diet. What should I give him? I'm on a budget and I'd prefer to give him dry food but I'm open to all suggestions (: thanks for the help!

I am raising 2 kitens that are 4 weeks old tomorrow (got them last Friday - long story on how, but were with their mother for the first 3 weeks). I have raised kittens before, but not for at least 10 years. One is far ahead of the other in development, even though they are brothers, and can urinate and defecate on it's own, for sure. The "slower" one, can urinate on his own, but 3 days ago, I had to stimulate him to defecate, and could tell he needed it. He has not defecated, to my knowledge, for 2.5 days. However, it is possible that he went somewhere that I can't find it. He is not bloated, eating voraciously, and playing hard. If it matters, he is eating about 100mL of kitty formula a day (mixed according to directions on label), and some a/d and purina canned food, though I am not sure how much actually ends up in his mouth - more of it is all over my floor :) Both of them were wormed for ascarids when I got them as well. So now the question: If he can urinate on his own, can he for surely defecate on his own? I am going to the vet tomorrow for a FeLV test before I let them run with my adult cat, but thought I would try to get some answers tonight. Right now I have them in my bathroom with a baby gate - 4x4ft room about with a large ferret litter box (low edges), for when I am gone. I usually let them run around the living room when I am home, but I guess I will need to keep them in that room more often until litter box trained. Or do you think I should put them in a smaller enclosure? Or just keep them in there an hour or so after feeding?
If a kitten can urinate on it's own, can it defecate?
I'd like a recommendation for some high quality wet cat food brands. I will not use the lower end brands like Whiskas, Friskies, Purina, and Meow Mix.
Recommendation for wet cat food brands?
I bought a hedgehog about two months ago, and she was on a dry food specifically for hedgehogs from the company 'Sunseed'. (here is the specific product: http://www. drsfostersmith. com/product/prod_display. cfm? pcatid=16627 ) She ate it, but she didn't seem to like it very much, just to tolerate it... We ran out of the stuff fast, so before I went to buy more, I read some stuff online that said they need insects in their diet; particularly meal worms or crickets. I bought 100 live meal worms, and she won't eat them! I cut some up, and opened her mouth, and she ate it, but when I put her down, she started sniffing around elsewhere, instead of toward her bowl of meal worms. I don't think she likes them, but I know she can't survive on dry food alone... I heard cat food works, and I've tried dry Purina cat food, and another brand of wet cat food. I put the wet cat food on her nose so she'd lick it off, and maybe like it, but she didn't eat it. She hasn't eaten in a couple days, because she won't eat what I give her... When I tried the dry cat food, she ate it at first without hesitation, but I think it might have been too hard for her to chew, because she only ate 2 pieces, and with difficulty. I tried peaches as well, and blackberries, but nothing sparks her interest... She's drinking plenty of water, but I'm afraid she'll die if she doesn't eat! She seems very healthy still, though she has eaten barely at all in the past two days... In fact, she spends most of her time hiding in her small box (her claimed house) and sleeping for most of the day. Is all this normal?? What can I do for her?

(here is the specific product: http://www. drsfostersmith. com/product/prod_display. cfm? pcatid=16627 ) She ate it, but she didn't seem to like it very much, just to tolerate it... We ran out of the stuff fast, so before I went to buy more, I read some stuff online that said they need insects in their diet; particularly meal worms or crickets. I bought 100 live meal worms, and she won't eat them! I cut some up, and opened her mouth, and she ate it, but when I put her down, she started sniffing around elsewhere, instead of toward her bowl of meal worms. I don't think she likes them, but I know she can't survive on dry food alone... I heard cat food works, and I've tried dry Purina cat food, and another brand of wet cat food. I put the wet cat food on her nose so she'd lick it off, and maybe like it, but she didn't eat it. She hasn't eaten in a couple days, because she won't eat what I give her... When I tried the dry cat food, she ate it at first without hesitation, but I think it might have been too hard for her to chew, because she only ate 2 pieces, and with difficulty. I tried peaches as well, and blackberries, but nothing sparks her interest... She's drinking plenty of water, but I'm afraid she'll die if she doesn't eat! She seems very healthy still, though she has eaten barely at all in the past two days... In fact, she spends most of her time hiding in her small box (her claimed house) and sleeping for most of the day. Is all this normal?? What can I do for her?
