Anonymous so, my tom has IBD. it was a STRUGGLE to find something that worked with his system – if he’s eating something that doesn’t cooperate with his gut, he has house-clearing BMs and if left to run its course, ends up with a lot of bloody stool.
it may honestly require a food change, and you may have to feed them separately. i’d get him checked for any possible health problems – you never really know when something is just a little off with cats, since they never show it. then i’d look into possible food changes.
what do you feed now?

Christina Chambreau This is a great example of how every person and animal have unique systems, especially digestive systems. some can be sensitive to one food and not another. The holistic approach is to see the stinky stool as one of the early warning signs of internal imbalance (see more at http://christinachambreau.com/learn-more/free-articles/early-warning-signs-of-ill-health). if any of the following suggestions helps, but you have to continue using them, you need to seek out the help of an integrative veterinarian. You can find links to all the organizations on my site under links.
- Get a stool checked for parasites
- Add a really good probiotic (I love Mitomax – see it at my site or go to PetsMaxCity.com) and try that for 2 weeks.
- If still stinky, see if he will eat raw meat (chicken, turkey, beef, etc). If he will, start feeding that with the probiotic mixed in. Then read some of the books that teach you how to feed a raw meat diet (Dr. Becker’s guide to real food for healthy dogs and cats, or anitra Frazier’s Natural Cat) so you can balance it.
- do not let either cat eat dry food as it can cause some health issues, especially for the kidneys.
- Learn Reiki and offer that every day.

How Do I Stop My Male Cat From Playing In The Water Dish? He…
How do I stop my male cat from playing in the water dish? He has the floor all wet all the time. I put water in his dish then empty it as soon as he’s done drinking but I would rather leave water in the dish.,

Anonymous ^^ was going to suggest a fountain.
also, i don’t know if this came to mind Dr. M, but my queen started playing in her water more and more near the end of her life. she was an old street moggy who had detached retinas and had difficulty seeing some things. she’d play in the water first to make sure it was there, THEN she’d drink.

Laura C Put a plastic tray under the water dish so that you don’t have to worry about the water splash?

The Availability Of Items Has Changed So Much Since I Last Had A Puppy Over…
The availability of items has changed so much since I last had a puppy over 10 years ago. I never give any of my dogs rawhide, so I’m looking for safe alternatives that satisfy the need to chew, especially for a 10 week old pup. Nylabone, nylabone edibles, what else is appropriate? I’m looking for safe, and hopefully not extremely expensive. And what about giving things like carrots, quartered apples, pears, etc? Thank you~!

Diedra Cardamone Hi Suzanne. My family gave our puppy many different toys when he was a puppy: squeaky ones, crinkly sounding toys, rope toys, etc. We always stayed in the same room when she played so we could make sure she was safe, didn’t ingest pieces and took the toy away when it came apart. We loved the Kong toys where you can hide a treat inside. It is good for your pet to work for and think about getting to the treat and to keep him busy. We didn’t use many treats but if we did we would only use those made in USA, dog food pieces for training treats, or other treats that are recommended by our vet (healthier quality treats), natural and with very few ingredients. Like people treats, many have low quality, unhealthy ingredients. I hope this helps and have fun with your puppy!!!

Kelly Furgason Hi Suzanne,
Great question, I like Diedra’s suggestions too. Here are a few more….To answer your question, yes you can certainly give chunks of veggies or fruits as treats. You are wise to not do rawhides or rawhide chews as they are really easy to get stuck inside the mouth. Kong makes awesome toys and they last forever so although they may be an investment, they pay off in the long run.
You can also buy marrow bones (they look like smooth bones about 6+ inches long, sometimes they are hollow sometimes they are filled. They are really hard and basically impossible to break. If they are hollow you can stuff them with peanut butter or other treats. You can also freeze ice (empty cool whip containers work great) put some treats inside the water before you freeze it…hours of fun esp in the summer.
Enjoy your new pup!!

Jennifer Bae Hello Suzanne. I recommend antlers. Dogs/puppies love them and they’re good for their teeth. They are sold at any pet shops. I have 2 dogs and they both love to chew on antlers for hours.
Another great option is to make your own frozen treats at home and fill KONGs with them. One recipe that I make for my dogs often is really easy. Cook oatmeal, add pureed pumpkin and small amount of peanut butter and mix. Fill kongs with them and freeze. Oatmeal and pumpkin is really good for dogs and the peanut butter adds some sweetness that dogs love.
Hope this helped!

Guy Styles What? Are these people Kong representatives? My dog will chews up kong toys in about 10 minutes unless it’s their thick rubber cone looking toy, she just sniffs at that.
More economical, and almost more fun are plastic water bottles. Want it to last longer, braid some rope around it, put a treat in it, throw it out when done. They don’t leave many plastic pieces everywhere, plastic bottles will just get flat.
As for treats, every dog is different. Meat always works, but it’s messy.
