foto is blur..

looks like dead skin etc..

kutu moves esp fleas, and jumps.

frontline will kill on contact, but takes time to spread, unless u use the spray bottle n spray according to dosage
and use gloves to spread all over the kitten, avoid the eyes, careful ...


fleas will bite human, but prefer to stay in cat n feast their blood.

on the box said 8 minggu ke atas,.,

it is very concentrated.

i think u better use the spray, and read the dosage,

spray is diluted.

u can spray on ur glove, and spread onto the fur, so it wont freak out the kitten n will avoid spraying into the eyes...

observe more, if can buy baby monitor to record, then can only decide.

both cat/kitten same size, might be safe to let them together without supervision, provide plenty of hiding places like boxes so the weaker one can retreat into it.

if one is big adult cat, one half size smaller then cant let them together if you are not around.

some sellers in shopee offers the cheapest price compared to shops.
cheaper than expo/cat fair price.
so im not going to cat expo @ matrade this year.

ss2, - not cheap compare to many years ago.
sea park pets, plc

uptown, long time din go.

kd. - sifoo pets (very good price on most product)
dewi pets (still have shop?) ok closed down
another shop always advertise on fb. (ok ok price) called pets value mart, near sunway ginza.

u jz type pets in google map @ those areas will come out a listing.

don like the hard kibbles maybe.

puke out? how many times?
maybe eat too much.

try introduce the kibble slowly by mixing with wet food. start with small quantity.

another thing is, some cats are choosy.
if you just leave the food there and dont feed anything at all. they WILL finis it. and thts how to train it to eat. cos they have no choice. thts how i do it. dont pamper them.

unless the cat free roaming, they will go out eat other things.

jz be patient, it will take time. ez for cats less than 1y to get along.

hv u seen cat shelters, boarding places tht dont cage cats.

all can share places just fine.

need to observe ' bullying ' tho.

u can search AZ animal clinic on google map or fb. Located @ glenmarie. They only deal with cats i think.

Quote tht i get
1. Consultation - rm30
2. Deworm - rm8
3. Deflea n tick - from rm15 to rm45
4. Spay rm100 male, rm150 female
5. Ward - rm20/night
vaccination rm45

how old the cat?
happy cat never bought b4, cos i found better deal on other brand.

u hv to test d cat to see fussy ornot.
if fussy cat will only eat dry food with good aroma.

the other day saw one cat food AD that says less jelly.. lol..
now they know, to use it as marketing...

this is snappy tom..

For more detail of ingredient used for pet food, you can google. I just roughly explain here.
I dont listen to pet shop/ sales ppl marketing, they will say this food is premium, this is super premium.

Example, screen shot below is from happy cat website.
Happy cat atlantic salmon.


Ingredient list for a product, is listed according to the amount (weight) used.
Look out for the first 5 ingredient.

1. Poultry protein.
This is the new term they use to make it sound better/nicer to consumer. Protein can be obtained from many parts of living things, including hair/ feathers.
Yes wild predator animals eat this, eg cat swallow whole bird / rat, but these are cheap/ by products of food production.
Happy cat atlantict salmon is Not cheap as supermarket brand.

So actual fact this could be just rendered by products.

2. Poultry fat
Again they get it from multi source, which is cheaper.

3. Salmon meal.
Ok. Single source,

4. Rice flour
5. Maize flour
6. Corn.
Maize = corn, both is the same thing. Means corn and more corn.

7. Meat meal.
Unknown source. Meat can be pork, horse, etc etc.
The supplier dont have to tell them what it is.
A very cheap ingredient.

8.Potato flakes
9. Cellulose - fibre
10. Haemoglobin
= blood
11. Beet pulp - fibre



Atlantic Salmon = name of product.
Could be the rice + corn + corn is more than salmon already.

Made in germany? I did not check the packaging to see if they put the address of the company or factory.
Could not find any german address on the website - means it is questionable.

Why hide??

Alot of EU pet food sold here, you will only find ' made in EU ' on the packaging, they dont have to state the country or the address of the factory.
Royal canin is one example.

of course which ever the cat feeder/owner can afford.

even if just white rice, better than nothing to eat.

my opinion is alot of food not worth the price.
importer mark up alot.

water and more water.

according to studies, recommended ~50-60ml of water per kg per day.

if u measure, it looks alot. yes for a cat is alot, but no choice hv to start increase the water intake.

u can calculate the amount of water in the can food tht you feed per day, and add more if needed.

might need to change the dry food to those tht use more animal base protein if u can afford.

if just mild infection, even without meds, it can improve provided the cat hv enough fluids + pee alot to flush the bladder+ uretra.

cat weight?
cat regular vet is? where r u from?

fussy cat wont take these, but still can train them.

add some can food to warm water..

wono no good? i hvnt look @ their ingredient list.

actually all depend on your budget.. how much you wana spend? n also the kitten appetite, if choosy type, hard to satisfy.

misha, i think put last in ur list.
cos i saw they use weaved sack to pack the large packs.
that is not a good way to produce pet food.
just wana save cost only. same as power cat.

royal canin food, doesnt use the better ingredient, too expensive, but very popular cos most cat even the fussy ones will eat it. so if kitten is fussy, try rc.

i search wono, they dont even hv a website running, just fb.
so it could be made in usa, but it is not sold in the usa.

probably local/ regional brand, contract factory in usa to produce it. ship food in bulk and repack locally in msia.

how they ship the food in bulk is also a point to consider for those that wana scrutinize the details. cos shipping+ packing increases/reduce cost.
Cincai pack n ship in bulk, will reduce the quality/ contaminate the food.

Imported food tht is sold worldwide is packed in the manufacturing factory. The expensive ones are totally sealed to prevent contamination.

to be cont. cat is wailing...

where do you buy instinct in msia?

looking @ the list, sure is very expensive.

if compare to wono is like night and day, i dont hv to write further as u can see for yourself.

*******

commercial pet food is a very lucrative biz..

this is the latest update that i can find..

https://www.petful.com/food/orijen-lawsuit-2018/

according to aafco..

https://www.aafco.org/Consumers/What-is-in-Pet-Food

if it is not stated as by-products, it doesnt contain by-products.

the term 'meal' refers to it being cooked, and grounded to granular form.
so it is a 'dry' ingredient.

happen to pass by plc, so went in to have alook.

saw this small bag of instinct 2.2kg?
thts super expensive.. wow lol..

thing is i noticed on both side of the bags, there r plenty of
small perforation.
this is purposely done during packaging, to release trapped air.

to me, this is totally unacceptable, bcos outside air can easily go inside the bag as well.
for this super expensive priced food.

can accept if its power cat or misha.. but this instinct...
plenty of other brands can do perfect vacuum pack, saw the hk based cindy recipe..

these days blackwood packaging is like local repack? slap on with sticker.
white tong slap with sticker..

to save cost? import bulk in guni?

cant say it is good or no good..

wht you can do is to find out, what other brands tht is the same price as greens...

:::::::::

ok i jz checked... 8kg greens is rm70 or abit lower...

so this works out to be about rm8.75 / kg..

many other brands around these price..
u wana compare oso pening...

if you belief/trust the ingredient listed, it looks better than many others..
this greens, no state manufacture by who on the pack, i think frm china. only the local importer name on the pack.

can oso compare the smell of the food.. can tell the difference..
