My brave little Nico overcoming his painful "UTI"!!!

Hey everyone! I wanted to tell you that my cat "Nico" has a "UTI"!!  Which stand's for "urinary track  infection":-(. Which makes him not use the litter boxes! It is very annoying!! But he really can't help it.So I'm not blaming him for it! He has been to the vet,two times now.And I just want him to get better and fast!!! He has been "straining to pee" meaning he can't so now I'm worried about my baby! "UTIS" are more common in male cats then female cats.Because males have a more narrower "track" than females do."UTIS" happen when a cat is fed "dry cat food" because cats need somewhere between 67% of water in their diet,but "dry cat food" is only 10% water!!! Which is very bad for them! So I highly recommend "wet cat food" for your kitty/kitties  (i am NOT a vet!) but it is true! In the wild cats get all the water they need from their "pray/food" so they rarely need to drink water.But. Our house cats get no where near that much water in their food! Of course we give them plan water in their bowls right?!(right?).So I think that "we" should give our baby/babies (cats) "wet food" because it is like 50% water and 50% dry.So dry food is 10% water and 90% dry!!!!! That is horrible! For felines (cats) because cats are "meat eaters" meaning that they eat "MEAT"!!! I hope I told you what a "UTI" is/how it can happen to your cat/cats.Love Ragdoll mommy&the babies!:-)

  3. We just want you to have more visitors to your blog. I've been blogging for over 5 years and I know Caren has been blogging for several years and we just want to offer some advice to a new blogger. People like to see pictures of your cats. They don't need to be professional photos; just pictures of the cats doing what cats do. You may also want to consider turning off the word verification. You can still have comment moderation, but many of the "regular" readers won't leave a comment because they can read the combination of numbers and letter and just give up.

    May we recommend a great website for Ragdolls? You can also sign up to get email newsletters weekly that talk about Ragdolls. The web address is http://www.floppycats.com/.

    Good luck.
