For 15 years I fed my Cat dry food, she had dry fur on top coat and oilly on the skin , every time I touch her my hands get sticky I thought she was born that way, I was so wrong! It's the dry garbage cat good she been eating! Thank you Dr. Jones! For a month I started to cook homemade cat food, my cat got more energy and her fur become so soft and shiny like a kitten and plus NO MORE greasy oily fur!!! These pet food company are making our pets sick some time they are killing our beloved pets with their toxic food, they are profiting with veterinarian and big pharmaceutical from you and your pets suffering!

It doesn't seem to matter how "good" the brand is touted to be, my cats turn up their nose at canned food, once they've licked all the coating sauce off the yukky meat stuff left in the bowl. So, mega-bucks later, I'm picking up 1/2 bowls of food every morning. I'm glad to hear someone successfully did it though!

Dr. Jones-- BRAVO to you for being one of the only traditional medicine (non-homeopathic) vet to admit to the long-term devastating affects of dry food. Do you have any opinions on feeding your dogs/cats raw food? At any stage in life? Since....they are obligate carnivores. I would love to see a video on that if you have any opinions/ideas! TX!

I'm surprised they still like it, but hey.... if it works, that's great, because once the wet part has been licked up, mine leave all the rest in the bowl. I've tried adding organic chicken broth to the food with a little success, but my senior guy isn't eating anything past the liquid and sometimes, will only eat cheap cat treats. I've only ever had Greenie treats, but the vet's office had the cheap ones and he devoured those, sooo... He's been so ill (was on IV fluids for a week in the clinic), the vet says that even if it's not ideal, it's better than nothing. I think he's even getting tired of those now though, so hopefully he'll eat something else. Tried sardines this morning; he turned up his nose, but my younger FAT cat thought it was his birthday or something and gladly scarfed up with the old boy didn't touch!

When my old cats started going potty around the house ( even though for 15 yrs of their life They can go in and out as they please ), I couldn't keep cleaning it up and getting angry ( I'm also ageing along with them), so I have a litterbox and puppy pads in every corner.8 to be exact. They are all over 16 except the 2 yr old stray. I would love to have a second litter box for them only I really can't afford all the litter. 💙 I really thank you for this video I'm so much more at ease. My cats are like my children and their health and how to help them at this stage in their life is super stressing.

You don’t say how many cats you have but you should have per litter tray per cat. If you can’t afford the litter then either A) use fine clumping litter which is more cost effective and/or B) don’t have so many cats if you can’t provide their needs. Why have so many cats if you can’t afford to look after them properly?!

DISCLAIMER: If After Reading This You Consider Making The Switch Please Do Your Research And Be Mindful I have a 16 year old kitty named Noot! She's precious and we love her here at home. About 4 months ago she started loosing fur on her back legs as well as her back end. We tried flea medication at first. Which initially helped with her scratching and biting but did nothing regarding her fur. We then thought of Omega Fatty Acids (especially considering its benefits for skin and coat) and began switching her nightly wet food feedings to wet fish types of canned food. This did not work as planned either so we began cracking a raw egg into her dry food during morning feedings. We did this for a week (switching to solely egg yolks midway through). WITHIN ONE WEEK there were finally signs of her fur beginning to come back. Since then we've completely switched her to a wet raw food diet fed twice daily and combined a medicinal mushroom (complex) supplement. Raw diet consisting of 70% Muscle Meats, 15% Meaty Bones, 15% Organ Meats fed at 4% of her body weight (haha had to invest in a cheap but quality produce scale). Biggest take aways since the switch (which I deem both life saving as well as life extending) are as follows: 1). Fully grown coat of fur, shinier and softer than ever before. 2). Increase of energy and just general curious kitty territory exploration. 3). She has become far more tolerant of our younger (more playful) Russian Blue/Tabby kitty and even plays occasionally where she previously would run away whilst hissing and growling. 4). Her litterbox is basically odor free and fills up in almost double the amount of time that it otherwise did with a traditional wet/kibble based diet. 5). It COSTS US LESS to feed her raw food than the traditional wet/kibble prescription based diet she lived on for years. Kitty's are obligate carnivores. They thrive on ethically produced raw MEATS!! P.S. We've also introduced a yogurt alternative known as Kefir. Contains more probiotics than yogurt, includes beneficial yeasts, and most unique of all, 1/4 the amount of lactose as other dairy products dude to its fermenting process.

Hi doctor and thanks for all your work and valuable expertise and information. I have a 16 year old tabby who I took in a little over a year ago because he could not poop. X-rays were taken and it showed basically a logjam in his intestine. I had examined his fecal matter before and found it to be absolutely dry inside with his tummy hair and dirt inside. Absolutely dry! Then after that extensive and might I add expensive diagnosis they sent me home with lactulose and that was it. He has been on canned food for some years. What I know to be true is that there is a animal hormone used in the making of plastic and his mother used to be overly interested in licking and chewing plastic and he follows in her footsteps to the degree that he will find pieces outside etc etc and it's almost impossible to keep track of what he ingests. Both my kitties grew up in the wild suburbs of the High Desert Foothills outside and north of LA CA. They've always been excellent Hunters and they're both pretty big boys who still love to go out and enjoy the Sun and roll in the dirt, hence the dirt in the stool contents. I've researched the attraction to plastic and that's what I found about the animal by-product being used for a binding agent in the plastic making. I took him to a second appointment where an actual biopsy was taken and sent back east for analysis. Their diagnosis was very in the gray once again without a good solid regimen for us to follow for the IBD they were claiming that he had. And not to mention the shape of his bowel was coming out like a flat ocean bottom jellyfish always very little and odd shaped about the size of a quarter. I researched and took pictures comparing the size and shape to a quarter. Definitely not a normal hot dog-shaped bowel. And always very dark green. He was a bit overweight when this first occurred. And he's always been a little piglet regarding eating. One of many of important reasons I got them off of any kibble because he would basically inhale it and it would come back up immediately. I feed them canned food I add extra water to the meal so that they have no choice but to ingest the water with the meal and they seem to enjoy that because they don't for whatever reason drink like they used to right out of the water bowl that's been kind of a mystery. I even bought them and automatic water fountain but both my cats weren't interested and Lippy, my cat in question was actually afraid of the automatic on and off motion detector setting:-). I would like to purchase products from you if that's possible. I agree with your stand in Natural Animal Health so I don't want to just go searching around and buying from anybody. Can you send me a brochure or literature by snail mail if that still exists? My mother who is 88 would enjoy also a brochure about you and your products and will Who You Are. She doesn't have a computer and she doesn't even have a cell phone:-) okay this novel has gone on long enough:-) My email is lordianro@gmail.com some of us out here still really appreciate holding information in our hands and being able to look at the pictures and have it be more physically consumed hahaha. Thank you for your time. Also my kitty had lost quite a bit of weight but still has a decent appetite but, he strains sometimes with no bowel at all and I know he's getting older but he's not as comfortable as I think he could be as he deals with this deformed digestive tract or colan. I would have continued to take him to vets if I could have but I was discouraged when they did all the diagnosis and still couldn't, like I said, give me a solid path to follow for us to deal with it. Thank you again doctor and much love and God bless your family and all your Critters 💪😇👌 💖

You are awesome! this is the first time watching you. You have no idea how much this video meant to me 💙. I have 4 cats that I've had since born and I all 4 of them are between 16 and 17 yrs old. ( I also have one that's almost 2 ) About 3 yrs ago we started giving canned food 3 times a day. It was mostly because they got very demanding about it. Then I figured well maybe they're having teeth problems so we gave in. I started worrying about them not getting enough nutrition by not eating enough cat chow. Thank you for straightening me out about that!!!!! I was also worried about switching to Friskies canned food after they have eaten 9Lives canned for 16 yrs of their life. At thier age I thought food brand change would be a catastrophe. Friskies canned has twice as much gravy compared to 9Lives. My oldest male alpha cat has had nightmares occasionally through his life. Now he makes the same noise awake daily. when I rush to him he's always just fine and circles my legs and purrs. My female white cat does this also but only once a week.. The 2 yr old cat stresses the old cats out every day.he does drag his butt sometimes and is very overweight. He stays stressed because he really just wants to play with everyone.

It's no wonder my senior cat is turning up her little pink nose at it. I've been trying to substitute some meat, fish and chicken whenever I can get them. I've been buying the same brand for years (Friskies), but lately the texture appears sort of spongey & I can hardly blame the cat for rejecting it outright or simply picking at it. Hoping I can find something better for her.

I feed my young cat a mixture of dry food and wet food. Because of that I have a drinking fountain, and he uses it a lot. Since cats have small stomachs, they need access to food most of the time. That is the advice I got from my vet. According to veterinarians in Norway, cats should have access outdoors, as they will live longer (about 5-600 cats are killed in traffic a year in Norway). My old family cat was attacked outdoors and got an infection, and I don’t understand why indoors cats is almost seen as abuse. I don’t know why the advice from vets is so different from Norway compared to other parts of the world.

He goes #1and #2 potty seemingly normal. So my second thought was anxiety about something, his arthritis or teeth. About 5 yrs ago we started giving him Byvecta flea medicine. He suffered with severe skin problems his whole life. The Byvecta is a miracle drug for him, since he's been on it he's had a thick, beautiful coat of hair. Our small female calico also same issue.

This as incredibly helpful... I’ll have to watch your vid on essential oils. My cats won’t touch anything with glucosamine. They will get mad. So I started giving my senior cats a triple blend for arthritis. 1MK ARNICA 1MK RHUS-TOX 1MK RHUTA The improvement is amazing! More alert, curious, less sleeping (pain). I get it from a homeopathic pharmacist and it’s affordable. They drink less water if I add it, so I am giving it by mouth. Do you think there could be any issue with the alcohol going directly into the mouth? My vet recommended it, but he failed to give proper dosing instructions so I want to be sure the carrier is not harmful. I give water and treat following Thank you so much.. I love Gussy telling you what she thinks throughout the video! 🤣🤣🤣

Gus means cat in mohawk. My mom is mohawk but anyways my mohawk grampy basically raised me we had a cat he would talk to. He would always say, "sheesho Gus," (it sounded how I wrote it, for all you kanien'kehaka spelling maybe off) it meant Mr cat.

I wish I had seen this 4 years ago before I my last cat passed away, she was 14 years old. I think she had arthritis and her Vet said it was possible she did. I don't think your kitty liked being held lol. She was so pretty. I now have 2 cats 6 years old (boy) and a 2 year old (girl) both been fixed. Can I give them these supplements now?

I liked your video a lot. I have a 15 year old cat that has had some mucus leakage of blood coming out of her and he hasn't been eating. I took him in and he has a large bladder stone that they are telling me he need surgery to remove it. No other options. Its 2200 dollars. I don't have that and I would die myself if I can't save him because I'm low on cash. it was a 450 dollar visit yesterday just to diagnose him give him fluids and antibiotics and to a senior panel. I will know more today if there are other issues. Jerry has is the sweetest boy. I have trained him like my goldens over the years and people often comment on how he listens and comes and does things that dogs would do. I love him and I want to help him. He is on that high end cat food by hills but not eating it because of his condition. Can you suggest something or help me with breaking this up at home or how to treat him. obviously I wouldn't blink an eye if money wasn't a problem. Please help me. Do you know if CBD oil can help him. I will try anything. Signed I love my kitty. Please.... thanks Debbie Napa CA

I have two senior cats and the biggest food related struggle I have is the fact that one cat is severely overweight and the other cat is underweight. I don't know how I can help one loose weight and one put on weight because they eat (dry food) from the same bowl. Obviously cats aren't going to know who's bowl is who's. Anyone have any ideas?❓

@@VeterinarySecrets My cat is 14 he has a chewing lower back teeth issue, scheduled an apoointment, though it would be over 12 days till they will see him. It's been about a week now and the amount of food he eats has dropped down to a third. I have tried getting him in some where else earlier but everyone is booked with openings months away, or not even doing dental treatments at the moment like my normal vet, Whom wouldn't even recomend any one to me he said google it and figure it out. Sigh... so i did. I tried giving him this vita paste by the company good and well to supplement him though after one day of him eating a few pea size amounts it did get him to eat more than he was, though he got diahrea like really bad and it smelled even worse and vomiting, so i stopped that emmidiatly, i started givng him some of the flaked fish tuna from FF after that and he started eating again that was a day ago. now the appointment is 5 days away and he is still not that excited about eating, won't touch patte canned food any more he stopped eating patte like 10 days ago, We just dealt with his mom passing on thanksgiving morning from brreathing complications caused by our landlord dusting our appartment with this powder called cimexa as well as D.E. cause the 2nd floor has bugs. He didn't tell us he was going to do that it was only to be a heat treatment, and my 16 year old tabby 'baby' was breathing it in for over a week (she has a deviated septum) till it started showing and noticed it was everywhere. I took her to the vet, but he said He doesn't know what's going on with her throat, her lungs and heart sound fine. he gave me some stuff to give her along with a shot, and said it could be she got into some of the powders and that is the reason. I work a lot and a lot going on dad had a stroke not even a month ago so my cat that im asking about Had been screaming a lot I thought he was sad and looking for his mom, He would paw at his mouth after eating and doing his lick down as they do after eating, but I didn't think anything of it I try to comfort him and make sure he is well. though like 2 weeks ago he started with what I described above stopped eating patte it would stick to his teeth they have a bit of plaque on them it's been about 4 years since i took him in for a teeth cleaning. this might sound stupid but what can I do, I don't know cause his teeth are bothering him enough that he stopped eating the way he would always eat. he was super active hyper running around playful demanding of food not even a few weeks ago, I don't know what to do if he is to weak to get his teeth treated what then? I tried boiling some salmon for him I've bought eevery single variety cat food there is to buy, he never ate dry food it was not his food of choice. I feed him off my finger till every now and then he will get going and eat some fillet chunks that i smash down cause once he chews on a piece his left bottom tooth seems to be the one that triggers the pain and he walks away. like an idiot I tried brushing his teeth last week as a solution in the mean time thought the paste would have some antibacterial properties but that made him sick also so i stopped. I can't afford emergency pricing here in chicago it's insane they asked me for $5,000 at blue pearl when I took my cat baby there a few days before thanksgiving and they held her hostage for a 400 payment after I told them I would make payments but could not afford that much and they where horrible they said they can't help me unless i pay the full amount up front just to start which means who knows, I wont go on about it. but they gave her back to me to die, instead of billing me, I was going to give them my bank information i get direct deposits from work i told them i would do what ever i can for them to believe i would pay what ever it takes to save her, though they cared only about $ 5,000 up front. I just want him to get better and I've run out of things to try, and the research has run dry. my own vet has no suggestions outside of try to get him in sooner,, where ever i got an apointment, though he wont perform the procedure for me even though he has done it before for my cat mini the one who has this issue. I'd appreciate any information you can offer in regards to my situation. my vet is right by my house has great reviews been in business over 30 yrs I don't know I just feel he gives me the short end of the stick or he only knows basic stuff or some other reason I can't speculate but it's how he makes me feel when I go there. like if i was caucasion he would treat me different.

I have two elder cats, one 15, the other 17.. the 17 yr old is sooo thin. He will not transition to wet food, only wants dry, which he does eat, but not enough. The 15 yr. old loves her twice daily wet food, she's been eating for almost three years now. I am def concerned with the health of my 17 yr old and would like to find the best, nutrient dense dry food available or maybe a suggestion to get him to eat the wet food. He does like to lick coconut oil...is this okay? Thank you for the informative videos.
