Kitteh Owners : VERY important !

so since many of you have been through what I am dealing with, what should I now be watching for. Obviously I want to make sure hes going, but its got to be normal for some lingering irritation and behavior. right?

2 grand...on a cat? For that much you could've just bought 20 new cats...

I used to cook up a nice chicken for my old kitty - it would last him a few days. Give him some canned cat food too for extra vitamins. He loved that damn roast chicken and lived to be 18. I still would recommend making your own cat food at least to some extent. just be careful of bones.

I hear vets going on about how kitties need taurine and they can only get it in canned cat food or they'll go blind. What the hell did kitties do before processed cat food? Must have been a lot of staggering pussies out there.

Feed them raw Bones and raw chicken + rice and give distilled water to drink. They should have relief within 24 hours and it should get better very quickly

Maybe for the first week.... but everytime kitty goes, you have to be there, to see his reaction.

well, he was just going. he went a decent amount but it took him ten trips.

I am wondering if its more that he is sore from a tube stuck up there more than still plugged.

are you giving him distilled water to drink? I would also give him vitamin c to help his urethra heal and cleanse out any bacteria. There is a very high quality food based raw vitamin c that is relatively inexpensive. I dare not name it or tell you that you can get it on amazon for fear of being banned (been banned for recommending products before, ridiculous).

Simple, kneel down above said cat. Make sure kitty is between your legs, and since you are knelt down, or sitting on your heels, he can not back up and away from you. Place left hand over his head, and gently pull up / back, this will open his mouth naturally, it has no choice but to open. With right hand throw pill in, aiming for the back of his throat, close. While keeping left hand on head, keep in up / back position, and stroke kittys throat stimulating him to swallow, which will make pill go down. Release when you are certain the pill is gone. I was a Vet Tech for 4 yrs, this method is tried and true.

Dont even bother to hide it in food, it never works. They always go around it.

one week ago at this moment in time, my furry 4-leg friend and I found ourselves in the 24X7 Emergency Vet Clinic. Today after work exactly a week later, my poor cat has finally come home. He is on about 8 different pills, and will be sore for a month. I am on a 12 month payment plan for nearly 2 grand in Vet Bills. and ALL of this could have been avoided. My fellow cat owners, please read on:


There is a thing called FLUTD (Feline, Lower Urinary Tract Disorder) / Obstructive idiopathic cystitis

Essentially the gyst from what I have learned in the past week is very simple. Go get your bag of Cat Food. Got it? good. Read the ingredients. The first or second one is some kind of Corn Meal. Right? now throw it in the trash.

Cats do not digest Corn, wheat, soy, or any of these "fillers" the food companies put in the food to save costs. Think
about it. Wild cats eat Mice, Rats, MEAT. not Corn... Now don't feel so bad, cus this was all news to me too.

You want to look for cat food that will say loud and proud on the bag " does not contain Wheat, Soy, Animal Bi-products or Corn ! " yes. it will be more expensive. Not as expensive as what I just went through. And not as ugly as it almost was...

my poor cat is begging me to tell you. Investigate this. research. dont use crap food. In fact dont even buy it from the Grocery store, or Walmart at all because they do not carry reputable brands. They carry crap. Go to Pet Smart or your local feed store.

I do not have any cats at this time; just my doggie. I have had a "Garfield" type or two in the past. Here is a couple of pics for you kitteh lovers...










Well, we wouldn't want to leave the dogs out now would we? That just would not be fair!

I have 7 feral cats I'm feeding in my neighborhood and they love meow mix from Walmart. Its cheap and tasty... only 11.98 for 17.6lb of food. Not high quality but these cats were skinny as fuck before I started to feed them. Two kittens went from days without food until I started to feed them. They love meow mix lol

I want one of these!




Please Mommy can I have one!

I wonder how it would do in a terrarium....????






Kidding of course! for those of you that have no sense of humor.

They can sometimes feel some pain at first ..howling at night, Urinating in strange places, licking almost obsessively . Watch for either and call your vet to make sure there is no blockage. I hope you were given some pain meds for him :(

Im still confused, so whats the FINAL WORD..on what is best to feed them?

I got a cat of two years.

My other cat lived fine until age 22 on Cat Chow brand, never one trip to to the vet. She just walked one day outside and collapsed of old age.

My cat now eats one canned food a day, usually Friskies seafood.
