mailmail pg - Hi. Reading your email, how do you get the free food. I still
don't quite understand. You also vet them as you said. Please explain. Are
they ferals that you have trapped and kept indoors? Or do you mean that you
trap them, neuter and release and vet them when necessary?
MailMail pg - ok I read further your e-mail. That is a good idea - I'll
visit Petco where I buy my indoor cats food. And see if they can donate any
torn or damaged bags. Anything in particular i should tell them about what i
am doing or why that would help them want to give me free food?
Talk to local rescues. Our rescue strictly uses Science Diet, so when people
donate other kinds of food, they give it to volunteers or feral feeders.
Sometimes it's really high quality food, sometimes not.
We also have something called Daffy's Pet Soup Kitchen which provides food to
people who
The cheapest yet healthiest food I've found is raw that I mix up myself,
using balanced recipes online (I can send you links and my own recipe, if
you like). I buy at Whole Foods, so I'm paying about twice what you could
otherwise---and I'm still only paying about half the amount of the best
Feeding dry food to outside cats is often the only option, especially in the
winter, so that the food doesn’t freeze. Dry food should never be the ONLY
food for cats, but as a supplement, it’s OK. Unfortunately, many people feed

She also had a fever that wouldn't respond to antibiotics, not even a cool
cloth, and diarrhea. Kaya had a vet appointment on Monday and was diagnosed
with FIP, so I put her to sleep before it could get any worse =(

The vet couldn't think of trying anything else?
I also found that when they don't respond to antibiotics, toxoplasmosis may
be present, and it took me over 6 months, 2 yrs ago, of medicating to
finally get rid of it - the kitten was negative on everything
On that note, talk to some of the small groceries and or meat shops.
I get a lot of quick sale meat...still very good...for my guys. I got
a pound and a half + of sirloin tip for $2 today. That will make 8
meals for the two inside cats + 4 meals for the dog. I add green
beans and other

If they won't go cold turkey, start adding small amounts of the food you
want them to eat, gradually increasing it and decreasing the amounts of the
food you don't want them to eat. You'll end up by crumbling the dry food
onto the full portion of the new food, and then you can test if you can
Here's some great info on cats: http://www.catinfo.org/
Do your cats not like canned food?
