Hidden in the Support Services and Programs section of The Ohio State University - College of Veterinary Medicine are valuable information on care of indoor cats and pet nutrition.
The Indoor Cat Initiative was created to help enrich the lives of indoor cats. The site has information on indoor cat needs as well as tips for common problems such as intercat aggression and urine marking.
The Nutritional Support Service has the familiar body condition score chart with a scale of 1 to 5 (vs. the Purina Chart of 1 to 9). It also has a search function to help find commercial diets meeting certain parameters.
The Nutritional Support Service is best used in consultation with a veterinarian. The Indoor Cat Initiative contains information that are useful to all cat lovers. A nice bonus is the Spanish translation available for some of the Indoor Cat Initiative pages. If you have a moment, fill out the survey to help with the ongoing study to enrich the lives of our indoor felines.
