Flint River Ranch, makers of the BEST cat food on the planet, will soon have grainless cat food available to buy!
Good news for all our feline friends, especially those with food allergies! Stay tuned for more….
Funny video! It was actually made as a Super Bowl Commercial years ago.
Some people food is just not good for our cats. Here is the list of foods you should make sure that your cat does not ingest:
1) Grapes and raisins — Both of these are foods we love but these can cause kidney failure in cats! The toxic substance is unknown.
2) Chocolate – Chocolate contains a compound called theobromine. The digestive systems of cats can’t digest this substance so it is highly poisonous and can be fatal. Most chocolate also contains caffeine which is also toxic to cats.
3) Onions and Garlic — Onions and garlic contain the substance N-propyl disulphide which can annihilate red blood cells. Onions are the more poisonous of the two. But don’t let your cat have meats or chicken or fish that may have these spices in their sauces or breading.
4) Potatoes, tomatoes and any other nightshade plants — Green tomatoes contain Glycoalkanoid Solamine and this substance is toxic for cats. This substance can be found in tomatoes, potatoes, paprika, chili pepper, eggplant, petunias or the deadly nightshade (belladonna). Don’t let your cat chew on your petunia plants and don’t let them have access to your tomato plants! The leaves and stems are very toxic as well. I have read that these foods are OK when cooked, but to be safe, I don’t feed them to my cats in any form.
5) Milk — What? Milk is not actually toxic to cats BUT many cats are lactose intolerant and some cats are diabetic. The lactose in milk can cause stomach upset, diarrhea, cramps and gas.
If your cat experiences food poisoning, you will see some or all of these symptoms within 12 hours: vomiting, diarrhea, fever, lethargy, cramps, rashes or seizures.
Get your cat to the vet ASAP and if you can’t at least call ASPCA National Animal Poison Control Center at 1-888-426-4435. A $60 fee may be billed to your credit card.
I do take my cats to a holistic vet and he says to offer them cooked greens, salads, meats, veggies, chicken and fish — whatever we are having for dinner. It’s real food. Just make sure there is no garlic or onions, or any else from the above list in the sauces or breading.
But if you really want the best cat food out there, you need to try Flint River Ranch Cat Food. World’s Best Cat Food
I have tried about 12-15 different cat litters trying to find one that fits my tough standards. My 3 girls are indoor cats with elimination systems that work really well… The dust and tracking was driving me over the edge. I am picky about my litter.
1) It must be fragrance free. I HATE fragrance and I hate it even more on my cats. I have allergies and one of my cats has allergies. Fragrances set us both sneezing our brains out. It can’t be “unscented” either, which is just a masking fragrance added to the mix.
2) It must clump hard. Have you tried a non-clumping cat litter? eewww, messy.
3) It must be very low dust, see #1 above.
When I found Swheat Scoop, I was ecstatic! Not only does it fit all the above requirements, it is also flushable and biodegradable! Nice…
It’s clay, fragrance and chemical-free. Swheat Scoop is made from wheat grown here in the U.S.A and contains natural enzymes that neutralize odor. No need for fragrances, masking fragrances, odor-eating crystals, etc.
You can buy it in about any pet store; even Target is carrying it.
Oh, and they have a “Breeders Partner Program.” If you agree to make Swheat Scoop your exclusive litter, you can get all kinds of free stuff including free litter. Check out their website at Swheat Scoop
Rescue Ink — You have just gotta love these guys!!! This really is a group of bikers who are rescuing abused and neglected animals out there in the New York area. They have an awesome website Rescue Ink where you can see pics of them and some of their rescues, read their stories and get a look at their rescues that are up for adoption. Please visit their website, donate to their foundation and adopt some of their available pets. They also have a rescue hot line number which you can find on their contact page.
I used to wonder why cats were put on this planet. Now I know for sure… They were put here to entertain us!

Wow, now this is a GREAT idea! If you have a cat that demands to be outside (or a dog that likes to roam) this is the accessory for your pet. This is the next step up from micro-chipping your cat. I have my cats micro-chipped so if they get lost and end up in a shelter, they can get scanned and identified. But, 2 of my 3 cats are scared of strangers. If they got out and went missing, they would probably starve to death while hiding from everyone. The Animal GPS allows you to track your pet in real time. I love my girls, they are family to me. If you feel the same way about your pets, then check out the Animals GPS. I have not used this product but I found it in my research and I think the idea behind it is fabulous! If you have ever lost a pet, you know the heartache that follows. This product could help many pet owners avoid the sorrow and upset of losing a loved pet.
My girls (my 3 cats) are family to me and I want them to have the best food out there. Since I know a thing or two about real nutrition, I was always trying new cat food to see how the girls would do. My mini main coon mix, Bink, had skin allergies and the regular vet could not determine what the problem was. She was chewing off all the fur on her belly, back legs and hind end because her skin itched so bad. She was underweight, had huge hair balls due to ingesting all that fur and she was so uncomfortable. She hated being petted and she never purred. In order to increase her quality of life I had to resort to putting her on prednisone. It did calm down her allergies but because this medication suppresses the immune system, she started getting frequent bladder infections and colds. I ended up trading one condition for 2 others.
Finally at my wits end, I found out about a holistic vet in our area. This vet treats animals with herbs and nutrition, and he specializes in handling pet allergies. He examined her and found no fleas at all, but lots of little itchy bumps on her skin from allergies which he explained were most likely food allergies. He said most cat food is just junk. It contains animal by-products (which I already knew to watch for) and “food” that is not fit for human consumption. He introduced me to Flint River Ranch cat food, the dry version. He took Bink off her prednisone and put her on Flint River Ranch cat food, which is real food. Flint River Ranch Cat Food
This food has no animal byproducts in it, no bone, no cartilage, no “meals” that you find in other pet foods. They use a variety of meat proteins. Their meats can be considered human-quality, similar in ranking to store-brand meats you would buy for your own family.
The chicken they use is certified hormone and antibiotic free.
The lamb is free-range fed and imported from New Zealand. Lamb is also one of the easiest meat proteins for your pets to digest.
The fish is generally a combination of ocean white fish (herring, trout, and menhaden). Some of their fish is farm raised, but their Bonita and Menhaden is caught directly from the clear blue oceans. Fish is a great source of Vitamin D & A and healthy Omega 3.
Their grains are purchased from American commercial suppliers. They arrive to the company tested and certified-free of natural toxins and molds.
Their chelated minerals are bonded to amino acids. This is highly effective in providing metabolic absorption in your pet’s digestive system. Their products are naturally preserved with a combination of mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E) and Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C).
The list of vitamins and minerals contained in their food is way too long for this post but you can read about all the ingredients and the process of how the food is made at this website: Flint River Ranch

Their wonderful food is freshly oven baked and shipped to your door. You won’t find this food sitting on a shelf somewhere for months going stale, losing nutrients and flavor. Try it , they have a money-back guarantee. My beautiful Bink is beautiful again, she has a full coat of silky fur which people comment on all the time. And this is all why Flint River Ranch cat food is the world’s best cat food, in my humble opinion.
The Animal Rescue Site is one site I visit daily, without fail. Each click on the purple button (at the site) provides a little over half a cup of food to a rescued animal in a shelter or sanctuary. 
You can even sign up for a daily email reminder! Over 4,000,000 animals are put to death every year just in the U.S. because they are abandoned or unwanted. Help feed and care for those that have been rescued. Visit and click daily and spread the word. The Animal Rescue Site
