SPRAYING AND LITTERBOX ISSUES (cleaning with water and white vinegar is one quick cheap remedy)
DIET
Very important: We feed all our cats a free standing dry mixture of holistic high protein low grain, no corn dietary products in order to keep them muscular and lean as a MC should be, while ensuring a healthy long life. As some cats may be allergic to grains, this is a "natural" alternative that may suit your cat. In nature, the only grain the cat eats is the one found in the stomach of little birds or mice. We therefore want to limit the grain intake in what we feed our cats, but not to completely eliminate it. In addition we give our MCs a once a day treat of canned Hills Prescription Diet AD (for addl. immune system support) mixed with Lysine a deterrent against viruses, and Hills Prescription Diet dry TD (for healthy gums)..
WET DIET - If raw scares you, here is a safe alternative:
If you like the idea of feeding raw, but like me, prefer a gently cooked alternative ensuring that the benefits of raw, frozen or home-prepared high-meat nutrients are not lost, try EVO 95% Chicken & Turkey Canned Cat Food which is based on the proven high-protein, no grain EVO formulas, and contains 95% meat including bones, fat, cartilage and connective tissue in addition to additional vitamins and minerals. My cats love the taste of this product.
The above information is derived from the EVO website and recommended to me by a number of people.
DRY DIET (always - high protein low grain, no corn)
Adults - mixture of:
- Blue Buffalo Longevity (alternate with Wilderness)
- Nature's Variety - Instincts (chicken and rabbit mixed)
- Royal Canin's Digestive Special 33
Petkin's Liquid Oral Care - liquid in their water bowls as mouth rinse and gum protection
Royal Canin's SPECIAL 33 - TO ENSURE A HEALTHY DIGESTION
KITTENS - the above in Kitten version, and:
ROYAL CANIN BABY CAT - FOR 1-2 MTHS
KMR and AD in a bottle - after the first month quite unnecessary for healthy kittensfrom a dietary point of view, but enormous for building kitten's character. A real treat for the kitten and an intimate privileged moment to build the kitten's social habits
KITTENS - 2-12 MONTHS AND FOR NURSING & PREGNANT MOTHERS
