Is your cat a picky eater? Does it seem like no matter what cat food formula you try, your cat is just not interested in eating? After one too many wasted cans of cat food, I wanted to find out more about feline eating habits and discover if my cats are truly fussy eaters or if there is something else at play. We tapped Dr. Mikel Delgado, PhD, scientist, and renowned cat expert at Feline Minds, for some advice.

The importance of a healthy bladder is so often overlooked. When things are flowing well, we hardly give it a passing thought. That is, until there’s a problem. Why Cat Bladder Health is Important The bladder is responsible for many functions. It’s the kidney’s main squeeze and best friend. The kidneys remove urea (a waste product) from the blood. From there, the urea travels down the tubules and into the bladder, where it’s eliminated through urination. The bladder also contributes to controlling levels of electrolytes in the body (hugely important for cell life or death and vital hydration ..read more

How Cats See the World
Modern Cat | Nutrition

Colour It is commonly thought that cats only see shades of grey, but this is incorrect. A cat’s vision is similar to a human who is colour blind—they can see shades of blue and green but have trouble perceiving pinks and reds (which appear green-ish) and purple (which appears as another shade of blue). Cats also don’t see the same level of colour saturation that we see.  Photo: Mihailo K/bigstock.com   Night vision Cats have evolved to be excellent nocturnal hunters. It is estimated that a cat’s nighttime vision is six times better than ours due to the high number of rods in their r ..read more

Vomiting: Is it a Cat Thing?
Modern Cat | Nutrition

Vomiting: typical cat! Or is it? For some reason, we believe that it is normal for cats to vomit. “It’s just what they do. It’s part of being a cat.” But it is no more “normal” for them than it is for us. It’s a sign of a problem.   Cats ARE prone to problems that result in vomiting. These include exposure to toxins (from poisons, bacteria, food or kidney disease), stress, motion sickness, and inflammation of the intestine (inflammatory bowel disease, colitis, constipation), stomach, liver or pancreas. How should a caring cat parent help their puking puss? If kitty is otherwise well, it ..read more

How to Spot Arthritis in Your Cat—and What to do About It
Modern Cat | Nutrition
by Constance Elwes
2y ago
Arthritis is extremely prevalent in older cats. It is estimated that as many as 90 percent of cats over the age of 12 have some form of arthritis, but its signs aren’t as obvious to spot as you may think.  How to tell if your cat has arthritis Feline arthritis can be challenging to spot because cats are excellent at hiding pain and will modify their behaviour to hide illness. Instead of cats clearly demonstrating they have arthritis, they may simply stop doing things they used to do. You may notice them grooming less, sleeping more or sleeping in lower places because they are no longer ..read more
