Whiskers is shit, goes off quick and stinks the house out.

IAMS is the best food to give cats, along with plenty of water...and regular amounts of food off your own plate! Laughing

One of our cats is now insisting to sleep on my pillow, i have three, so she sleeps on the back one.

by Guest Thu Apr 24, 2014 11:17 pm

I have a cat that howls at my bedroom window to get in, we changed the cat flap to microchip only, because my cats don't like him.

by Guest Thu Apr 24, 2014 11:18 pm

Our cats just sit at the window and glare at him.

do a bit of googling catman....Now I'M NOT sure...BUT onion may cause problems for cats...I know it can for dogs
apparantly the stuff that makes onion taste of onion is not handled well by their body, and can sometimes cause some nasty problems with kidneys and blood chemistry....
there are other things in OUR diet that are NOT good for cats and dogs...chocolate for one is potentially deadly...grapes )and dried grapes ...sultanas and such, can in some dogs prove fatal (though I cant imagine a cat eating grapes....but i CAN imagine one eating raisins in a cake) Milk can be a problem for cats...some are ok with it...in others it causes severe diarhoea.....ewwwwwww.

look at what YOU are eating...and check up on t'internet if its ok for your pussies....

Garlic is another big no no especially for dogs

They love the smell of it though, and I'm sure curry can't be good for them, but my dog positively drools when I make it!

Well, they've said that milk is no good for cats...But that's a load of bollax, since i was brought up with cats in the family, and it didn't do them any harm at all.

It was a ploy to get people to buy corporate cat milk...I always put down full cream milk for my cats now, and full cream milk is the best all round anyway!

What is this semi skimmed shit?

It tastes awful, much like water based!

Awful crap!

It is awful. Here in the U.S. we have more and more stores offering organic milk, which has a much better taste and takes a lot longer before it goes bad.

The skimmed stuff is usually 1 or 2 percent fat. Most people don't know that whole milk is just 3.5 percent fat -- it's really hardly any difference at all.

Full fat milk is vile. I've never liked it, it makes tea taste too creamy.
I love skimmed milk. It has a lighter flavour and I prefer it.

I do like creamy coffee though and would rather have cream in that than milk.

Has anyone tried almond milk? It's got a lot of sugar in it so I wouldn't drink a lot of it, but it's lovely in porridge.

I will not entertain skimmed milk at all, there's Cravendale milk, that taste's really good, but it's bit expensive so, that's one pint a week...Full fat milk is the best! Razz

Hubby has a thing about Cravendale milk too although semi-skimmed. I don't get it? How can you taste the difference once you've added a shed load of strawberry milk shake to it???!! We need a May Queen Cow_mi12

"Skim Milk" down here is less than 1%...

There is also a "low fat" in-between milk which is probably closer to that 2% milk fats..

AS well as some cats developing the runs from reacting to cow milk; you can also find that some older cats drink significantly less than younger cats. Preferring to drink a lot more water than milk..

Milk has to be Pasteurised (heated then chilled rapidly, in the milking plant during milking, to kill the bacteria that spoils it..) by law in many countries...

THIS includes "Organically certified" and "fresh from the farm" milks, but these avoid the factory "Homogenisation" process that physically breaks down the milk fats and solids and keeps them in suspension throughout the milk. cyclops
