bmccasland, tulip thank you for your help. I have been reading the Tortilla cat thred and this got me thinking....I have visited and read the catinfo.org page that was recommened. Yesterday, I called the vet, since I am a newb at this whole cat thing. They, ( I spoke with a tech NOT the vet) suggested that I stay with the IAMS brand of dry food. I then went and did some research on IAMS and they look no different than the chepo brands of cat food. They are still high in the carbs and low in proteins. (I hope I am not hijacking this thread, please forgive me if I am.) I need to get this cat up to weight 8-10 pounds before getting shots. What am I to do ? I also do not want this cat to become overweight. My DH and I are thinking of getting a harness so we can take her for a walk around the neighborhood when she is more relaxed.

What is a Furminizer? I have never heard of that. What does it do? Where do you get one?

Thank you for your help.
