feeding

Hello Sphynx Lovers, What supplements do you feed your cats? Currently, I am working on a slow transition to raw food. She is not on raw food yet. Right now, she is eating kibble and wet food in separate bowls. I'm hoping to eliminate the kibble altogether and eventually transition the wet into...

Hello Sphynx Lovers, I have finally been able to switch my baby from kibble to wet food, woohoo! However, I've been wondering what is the long term consequences of feeding her food that comes in an aluminum can. I was debating on switching to pouches, but I'm not sure of the long term effects...

Hello everyone, my Natsu is doing fantastically well, cheeky bugger playing with the dogs like there is no tomorrow. He eats his meals, ... well gobbles them up (chicken, minced meat, beaf liver ...) actually and I'm wondering what normal quantities for the age are for this breed. Currently...

Hello everyone, Lovely photos all over the site!!! I'm so very eager to get my Natsu tomorrow ! As you see, I'm getting a new kitten Sphynx (male) of 4 months old tomorrow midday. As we have dogs and other cats (not sphynx), it is neither easy nor practical to free feed the newcomer. I was...

I feed my cats all organic raw meat I freeze it for three days before I dethaw and give it to them because I heard that that kills any bacteria that could be on it. I don't give them supplements because I didn't feel like I need to they don't get supplements in the wild and I was trying to mimic...

Hi everyone! I finally got my baby! I have some new questions about feeding. Has anyone used Costco brand cat food? My kitten came already eating it, but I had another high quality brand I wanted to get. I also read that it's good to keep dry kibble out all day, but this baby eats a TON. The vet...

hi, i'm new to Sphynxlair. I have a 6 month old Donskoy that I am going to start feeding raw. Ground beef and chicken with turkey necks. Can I just give him a daily multi vitamin to make sure he is getting all his nutrients? It all seems so confusing!

Hi there! My boyfriend and I recently adopted brother and sister spyhnx babies that were born on March 7th. The little girl, Matcha, has really been growing and looks as healthy as can be at 4.5 pounds! She is extremely energetic and eats very well from what I have monitored. Our boy, Mochi, on...

Gotcha-Day for my baby isn't until the end of July, but I'm trying to prepare now. I've got an older cat (8ish, not sure because he was an adult when I adopted him), so I'm trying to figure out how the feeding situation is going to work. Right now, he gets a scoop of dry food when I go to bed...

Hello, My name is melody. Ben is a black Sphynx. He is my second hairless cat. First was a white Devon rex. When I lost my first it really tore me apart. I have always loved my pets. But never as much as Desi. I waited and three years later I bought Ben Ben. He is the light of my life. The...

After raiding this great forum for information I've ventured out there (*points to that nebulous space call the interwebs*) and read as much about raw diets for cats as my brain could handle. I'm presently of two minds: 1. Ground Raw w/ Chunks This seems simple enough. Use the ratio, pick...

Hi! I know I asked a similar question before but how much raw food should an almost 6 month old kitten be eating? While I love the fact this raw diet has completely solved any of Oliver's digestive issues, I find him frequently hungry ( or at least he is pretending to be!). I am feeding primal...

:oops:*This thread is for sphynx that have a skin conditon/allergy/irritable bowel syndrome only*:p Hi I know this has been asked a bit in all different threads but I think it would be helpful in a dedicated thread so nothing is lost and you don't have to jump around to other threads to get the...
