    @Columbine. No she doesn't like those kinds of toys - she loves ping pong balls - or any balls that make noise - and interactive chasing toys. She LOVES it when I play with her. The laser pointer is another favorite (but I have to buy batteries - she's killed the old set).

    I'm sorry to hear that she had to have an enema but I'm glad that you caught it early and knew something was wrong. I have to hid many of my cat toys especially the feather ones because they'll eat them.

    I hope you'll be able to find a cat food that she'll like. Most stores will allow you to return food if the animal doesn't like it so remember to keep the receipt. My cats were on Innova Evo but Ziggy gained too much weight on it so now they're eating Nature's Variety and they seem to like it better. The dry also has less calories. I buy the Duck and Rabbit Instinct dry which is grain free. They also have Chicken which I tried in the past but they didn't like it. They also make Prairie which contains grains. I also buy the canned Instinct in Venison, Duck, Rabbit, and Lamb and they like it much better than the Evo canned. Even my new kittens like the canned. They didn't like the stuff that the lady said they were eating.

    I was told by the manager of An-Jan Feed & Supply that P & G won't be changing anything. She said she personally knew the now retired President and that P & G had to sign some papers stating that nothing would be changed. Hopefully this will be the case but I still have my doubts. Good luck.

    Petco was out of Soulistic Pure Bliss tuna, so tonight Smudge had Dick Van Patten's Natural Balance Chicken and Green Peas. It got the bowl-licked-clean seal of approval. Smudge definitely can't have grain, and would actually be quite happy to subsist on his dry food (Solid Gold Indigo Moon), but I need to give him a little canned food just to mix in his meds (including his psyllium-seed husk fiber supplement, generic Metameowcil). There are lots of healthy choices - you just need to find the ones you can get where you live.

    Love, Columbine

    She's still suffering the effects of the enema - do they make Gas-X for kitties?

    We have to give her Laxatone for the next three days and then twice a week. She's eating a bit but still very picky about what she will eat. The Evo treats are a huge hit.

    Oh, I'm sorry I somehow missed this, I was alerted by a post on FB there was a problem. Marbles, honey, please only eat FOOD! Ribbons are not food!

    Prayers she recovers completely soon!
