I just wanted to share my story with RAW in case anyone else is dealing with a similar problems. Over the last year I have spent countless hours cleaning up messes left behind from my little princess. Everywhere and anywhere. I have spent hours at the Vets office (along with hundreds of dollars) with no solid answers (or solid poos) on why little girl was having such tummy troubles. Instead of giving up and considering rehoming or that it may be a behavior issue I dedicated myself to trying every possible solution. I tried pumpkin, grain free, yogurt, plain rice and chicken, supplements, anti-diarrhea medications, prescriptions meds and everything else unter the sun. I finally came across some articles on RAW diets and figured it couldn't hurt. Before investing in all the equipment and ingrediants I purchased some frozen online and decided to give it a try. Zoey had a vet appointment about a week into our new diet with no changes yet and her vet assured me that it may take several weeks to see results before I noticed a change. So I continued scrubbing my floors and feeding RAW meals. Then one night about 3 weeks into our trial she jumped in her litter box and something truely amazing happened! There it was right in front of me! Something I have never saw come out of my little princess before.....solid pooo!!!!!! I was so excited and ran to tell my husband who of course thought I was nuts. He asked if I took a picture....I thought that was a good idea at the time but a year of cleaning cat diarrhea off my oak floors has made me a little crazy. Those of you that have ever experienced a problem like this will totally understand. Now I make my own RAW. It is timely but so worth it. Zoey has gained weight and is vibrant and playful and everything she should have been during her first year of life. So if you are having poo problems, hang in there and give RAW a try. I rescued a naked boy from Wisconsin not to long ago and feed him RAW too. He doesn't have any tummy issues but he is 7 years old and the I have definately noticed changes in his energy levels and health. Now that I have a healthy happy naked family I can think about the next new addition. Sphynx are kinda like potatoe chips, you can't just have 1!
