    Thanks for that I'll keep an eye on him. They've all ate some chicken and I'll give them some more fish before bedtime.
    We're hoping he goes to the litter soon so we can keep a check although the vet said we may see some blood for a few days after the bland diet until his stomach settles down.

    Re: Worried about cat

    My cat finally had a clear poo today :-)
    WE had them on the bland diet for just over 2 days and none of them had a poo so I returned to their original food (as good as it looks, I will bin the Feline Fayre) and 2 had a poo last night and the one who had blood in his stools has just had a clear one I am over the moon and from now on will stick to the same brands as the vets said he could also have had a poorly stomach for a few days because of it so I feel guilty for that!
    There's one good thing that happened this week! Althoughy partner got bitten whilst trying to cage.one of.our cats when the workmen came on Thursday and he got a nasty infection and needed a tetanus! Eventful week. Thanks again for the advice guys

    Re: Worried about cat

    I rang the vets today and they said to still take him in tomorrow just to be checked as he appears a little groggy to me (although my partner insists he isn't). Either way it's free so would be silly not to take him. The vet said they'll weigh him too as hes been feeling a bit heavy lately!
    Hope he's ok as I do really think he looks sleepy but could just be me. Either way I'll find out tomorrow. Not giving them dried food until the vet says itshl fine.

    Been to vets cat appears to be perfectly healthy (although he is 12.7lbs). He said it will have been change of diet and unless it gets worse it's nothing to worry about!

    I've got a dog but he absolutely loves Royal Canin. Our vet says it one of the best.

    We always had issues with him eating dry food. Sometimes he was ok, but he seemed to get bored of it. At times he wanted to be hand fed, I guess as a play thing and for attention.

    I saw the Royal Canin breed specific stuff and knew that my Shih Tzu was a breed that could be picky, so thought I would try it. He loved it! Ever since he stopped those habits and has happily eaten it, often having a quick much whilst playing. It must be 6 years now and he still loves it. Great stuff!!!

    Re: Worried about cat

    We got a free trial of Royal Canin a few months back, seemed decent although we couldn't afford it at for moment especially not for 3 cats bless them.
    Any advice on how much to feed them? We have a 12.7lb 3 year old male, around a 10lb 3 year old female (both neutered) and around a 5lb (soon to be neutered) almost 2 year old female. They all eat about the same and it's going to be difficult feeding our skinny one more than the others but she is at the vets tomorrow getting assessed for neutering so hopefully in a few months shell be spayed and will gain weight like those 2 did so we can feed them all the same.
    We give them As Good as it Looks sachets and we used to feed them either indoor or neutered dried food but the vet said they don't need dried food although it does help with their teeth (and our boy had early.signs of gingivitis).
    I was thinking 2 sachets a day each and half a bowl of dried food between them on a night?
    The vet also said it's virtually impossible to clean a cats teeth so and advice on early gingivitis?
