Whiskers Pet Care

27/05/2026

I created this page many years ago to help support my business of pet care and animal healing.

I stopped using it a while back, as no one ever used to see it anyway, it became pretty pointless.

And now pretty much all control of it has been taken away from me by Facebook. It’s as though it belongs to them, and anyone can post, even if they are writings and articles that I would not and do not promote. Not to mention all the advertising!

I’ve tried to rectify this, but they’re always doing it, and now the tools for me to manage my own page don’t even seem to exist any longer.

I don’t want to delete it, I’d actually like to be using it again, but right now I’m thinking that’s probably what I’ll have to do.

I don’t seem to be able to prevent anyone from posting on my Whiskers Pet Care page. I’ve tried before, thought I’d done it, but clearly it’s not worked, or Facebook are just overriding anyway.

And even though it’s my page, there are no options for me to delete posts I don’t know want.

I’m thinking about deleting my page for good. Such a shame, but I don’t think I can avoid it.

So very very annoying.

A question that often comes up when speaking with clients and others with elderly or infirm animals.....

If they're happy, why bother to change their diet at this late stage?

And a very good question it is. Because, isn't it best to just keep them happy now? Won't making a change cause distress?

Well, it might, but it might also help them to feel and be better for longer too.

Changing an animal's diet isn't something that is done suddenly, regardless of age or health condition. It's done gradually, monitoring all the while. It takes patience, a little determination, and lots of love, while taking note of all the changes, and adjusting as necessary.

I've helped a few cats as they approached the end of their lives, including my own.

I'm thinking now of Diego, who passed earlier this year at the grand old age of 20, having been diagnosed with kidney disease a few years before.

I helped his humans to move him onto a much better diet that would support his body and health; the improvements were clear very quickly, and were retained until he finally left us. They would often get in touch to let me know how happy they were about his change in diet.

When he passed, and they wrote to let me know, this is what they said:

"Sorry to let you know that we lost Diego last night. I just wanted to thank you for everything over the years, and helping us get his diet right that really did give us extra time with him."

The right diet really does make a difference, at any age, and any health condition. It means so much to me to be able to help as many as I can, so if you'd like my help, get in touch:

This is very cute, and of course very true!

😻😻😻

I would just add in a serious note though, for safety. If giving a cat a bag to play with that has handles like this one, please remove the handles first.

It’s so easy for them to get their heads caught. I’ve seen it happen, more than once, and it can be both terrifying, and cause injury.

I love to help people when they want to transition their cats to a better diet. Makes my heart happy!

And help is often needed, because it can be a bit of a minefield in knowing what to buy and why, and much patience and determination is needed for many cats; especially those who have been fed the feline equivalent of McDonalds for a while!
