Re: At a Loss
Is it possible he's picked up a parasite?

Re: New Skills
I hope so. One thing is sure, though: we're doing it wrong, with ourselves and our furballs. You know, I'm part of a WWII rationing group and everyone on that group gets healthier because all the processed junk disappears from our diets. Says a lot, doesn't it?

Re: New Skills
Yeah, I hear you. I feel the same way about our Minnie May and Morgenne, the dynamic duo. They made it to seventeen and a half and nineteen and a half respectively, but it doesn't feel like anywhere near long enough. Actually, our experience with Minnie May's early years really helped us when it cam...

Re: New Skills
These treatments are amazing and I wish they were more mainstream because they could be helping a lot more patients, of almost every species. I love that the cats enjoy it, too. It isn't a fight with them to get them to take their medicine. All I had to say to Montgomery was "do your lights&quo...

Re: New Skills
I'd heard various things off and on about gums in the food perhaps aggrivating IBD, and carageenan being an ingredient that came up a lot. His usual veterinarian dismissed this as people being paranoid over pet food at the time. The diet he was eating for years was Royal Canin Spayed/Neutered Kitten...

Re: New Skills
Sure. He recommended we take him off any vegetation in his diet, and look for a wet food or home-made or raw food without gums. I can't feed him raw because of his wacky small intestine. We wound up going home-made. Recently, we've had to revert back to commercial cat food because of his hairball in...

New Skills
It's been two years since Montgomery saw the naturopathic veterinarian who made such a positive change in his life. I started thinking about all the things he's learned to do since then... Use the litter box by himself. He knows he needs the bathroom and goes there. No more accidents. No more remind...

Re: Pancreatin irritating human skin?
Yes. If I've stuffed a couple of enzyme capsules without gloves for Montgomery, it feels like there is a film on my skin and its sooooo itchy. I find it hard to wash it off, too. Dish soap seems to work best. I just buy bulk bags of latex gloves from the grocery store.

Re: Counter Surfing
Montgomery will snatch things off his friends and relations once in awhile and usually he's okay (except for the sardine incident). They make this thing called a Ssscat! which you can use to deter an animal from doing things like counter-surfing. Its a can of compressed air with a motion sensor. Eve...

Re: Empty Gelatin Capsules for Tylan
You can get them very cheaply off Amazon, too. I've been doing this for years with Montgomery.
