Dear Felice with Feline Instincts:
My mom asked me to write you to tell you my story. My mom and dad found me as a stray 5 years ago. Boy are they ever good to me! But, they had never had a feline before and they fed me nasty crunchy kibbles that made me SO thirsty.
But, thank goodness that they let me outside like I was used to and I was able to catch an occasional baby bunny or mouse. YUM! Not to mention what fun they are to play with. I had bladder crystals a year ago and cost then $1200. And boy – was it ever painful! I never like drinking water, so I guess I paid the price.
Anyway….mom started learning about the alkaline diet for her and dad – and, when they started it they felt so much better, they lost weight, and they were healthier. Mom said that, since my sis, Megan the Bichon, died last year, she wanted me to be as healthy as I could be. Well, she started researching and found your website. Read it – TOTALLY! So, she bought your stuff, a powder mix and a little extra chicken liver powder, and then went to buy a nice mix of white and dark meat hormone free chicken and spends about 1/2 hour every 2 weeks or so making my new food. I didn’t really like it at first and I went on STRIKE! But, mom is relentless and did not give in – so I had to eat it or go looking for lots more bunnies (who were much bigger now).
Well, the good news is that I have lost 4 of my 19 pounds, my hair is so soft and manageable that I could be calling a hair care company to make some extra money, and I no longer shed very much. Lucky for me because vacuuming was really hard for me to do. Now, I love this food. I really feel better – younger somehow. I know that I only get fed twice a day and I am ready by my bowl at the correct time. You are one great cook, Felice. Thanks for loving me enough to show my mom what to do, and for being so friendly when she calls you. She is even looking for a homeopathic vet near here for me. WHEW – it’s about time!
Licks and purrs,
