Novel Protein Day For The Blondies! 18th May 2024, by AnimalCare
It’s called a “novel protein” because it is, well, “novel”, ie. used occasionally.
A cat’s natural food in the wild is rodent and bird. Many websites highly recommend rabbit (rodent) meat for cats. I know, I know, it’s sad. But this is a very imperfect world where there are carnivores and omnivores and they have to eat meat.
Cats are obligate carnivores so their diet is 98% meat.
When Indy had this persistent bloody diarrhoea for 7 weeks, it was the swit...

Nomi’s Update (Day 12 After Surgery) 18th May 2024, by AnimalCare
Nomi’s wound looks so much better today!
She will be boarded until her sutures can be removed.
The wound cleaning and boarding charges are covered by the caregivers.
The vet updated that Nomi’s incision site is quite clean, less discharge seen. Tomorrow if her incision is dry, her sutures can already be removed. Otherwise she is eating well at the clinic.

Misty’s Breakfast (the Retraining Begins…) 18th May 2024, by AnimalCare
Months ago, I had successfully converted Gerald and Misty to a raw food diet, but over the months, it sort of went back to canned food, and worst, after I confined them for those 18 post-reptilian days, Misty insisted on kibble only.
So, I tried to add in more canned food, and that worked…provided there was kibble toppings.
Today, I’m going to start retraining her back to raw food, even if it’s mixed, but at least she gets some raw nutrition.
I know this isn’t advisable...

Gerald Is Selectively Friendly… 17th May 2024, by AnimalCare
Gerald is about the most friendly cat I’ve ever come across.
But is he friendly to everyone?
Samantha loved him and still does. Misty loves and hero-worships him. Gerald was terrified of Creamy, if you remember.
So does this make him a friendly cat and also a scaredy cat?
The first time I ever saw him was when he mated with Samantha on the road. I straight away picked him up and placed him into a carrier, carted him off to vet’s for castration, along with Creamy.
It was that easy.
