There is a stray cat that looks to have been injured in a cat fight. He has a large open wound on the upper left of his head, and his ear looks to have been torn at the base.

Mastiff was diagnosed with stones in his bladder (struvites)
My 4 year old Mastiff was diagnosed with stones in his bladder (struvites) and is on an expensive and unpleasant smelling prescription canned dog food. Is there anything I can prepare for him at home that would address his needs, or perhaps a canned food that does not smell so bad? He is currently on Royal Canin Urinary SO. Thanks.

2.5 year old toy poodle diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor
WE have a 2.5 year old toy poodle diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour, he has had scans etc and it there but currently surrounded by a lot of fluid which has given him the symptoms that led us to investigation. So we have him home and he is feeling good thanks to steriods, I want to be sure to give him the best chance via diet and wondered what your experiences have been, I have just seen the Hills ND diet which seems a good thing to use along side freshly cooked foods. Of concern is that animal fats have arachidonic acid which is pro-inflammatory. I would be grateful of any shared experiences. With thanks, heartbroken..
