  • A friend’s home-prepared food for her dogs and many cats (a sharing)

    Ever since September this year when Indy was suddenly diagnosed with Stage 3-4 CKD, Cow Mau with HCM and I started everyone on pre+probiotics (and later, fish oil) as a daily supplement, my mornings have been very, very time-consuming.
