These pet beds must be very comfortable. Unfortunately I haven't seen them in Germany yet.

Thanks for all the feedback. I think it is right there are the cat genes we cant change, there will be always cats that get very old with minimal care and cats that got the best food and care but they die early and nobody will know why.....there are no guarantees in life.But it is also true that the food cats like very much are raw mice or birds, they are little hunters who eat raw meat, so I agree with Elisabeth. I believe raw diet is what a cat would buy if she could. I am not a friend of the in factories produced cat food anymore for many reasons. As I wrote before when I will have kittens again I will make sure that they dont get used to all the food you can buy. B.A.R.F will be my choice.

Well, my cats got and get always high quality food (dry and wet) you can buy at the vet only and of course I always thought this would be good for them but I am not so sure about this anymore. Of course our cats get old, older than they would ever become without us taking care of them and some vets say it is just the age that they suffer renal failure but some say it could be the food, too or both depends on to whom you talk to.......more and more cats get allergic to the cat food, maybe something to think about , too.

Yes I agree. Years ago I wanted to change their food and barf them but my cats did not eat it no matter what I tried. Them I cooked for them, they did not want it.....When I will have kittens again I will make sure that they dont get used to the usual cat food.

I talked to the vet yesterday, Moritz and Paulinchen are okay so far except for the kidneys. They both suffer renal failure in the beginnings. Because it was found out so early the prognosis is good. Although this desease is incurable, with medicine and a special food they have a good chance to live with this illness for years. So, if you have cats that are older than 10 years please get them to the vet every 6 months for a check up. When they show signs of renal failure like for example drinking a lot or losing weight then usually about 50 % of the kidneys dont work anymore........When cats are older renal failure is one of the most often causes of death.
