Food Switch

[Randi]

Thank you! I did see the link before. There are a few not too far away that sell Acana and Orijen cat food. Not sure which of them I should try - Fister is 15 now. Well, they will know in the shop. I was hoping my vet would look at the list of all the foods, and get the best ones.

Randi, sorry I wasn't specific about the food, I thought it was well known. I have struggled with this decision for some time; we all want to do what's best for our furkids, and in looking at the ingredients on Science Diet, I just thought there really had to be a better way! Then, the last time I went to buy food, there was a big display for Blue Wilderness, and I decided it was a sign. It was the time to start the switch, and that was the food I had been considering. I mean, really, what cat needs corn and chicken by product meal with gluten? I don't process corn well; how can a kitty?

That being said; I did raise my RB kitty Jamara on Purina cat food for 18 years, but there weren't alternatives then. I'm glad there are now, and grain free, more real meat based foods are more prolific. Wait until I start mixing in the canned version (which I have always done with S/D); it's DUCK!!

Blue Wilderness dry is not only healthy for a cat on just about any normal or specialized diet, but also I have never seen a cat turn their noses up at it. Now, only one of mine like the wet Wilderness, so I feed them Wellness canned, they all love that. Yeah, I'm just a slave to my cats...

Orion loves Orijen- and it sounds really good from the package. No cereals. Some of the Hill's really has cereals as the first ingredient- that is not what a cat would choose.

I'm glad that Pinot likes her new food. It's hard to find a dry and canned food that all cats like in multi-cat households. I feed Storm, Sky, Pearl, and Ziggy Stardust Wellness Core grain free dry and Wellness grain free canned. They all love it.

Unfortunately Alani & Blaze have very sensitive tummies and this food was too rich for them. They eat Chicken Soup For The Cat Lovers Soul Light dry formula. It's higher in fiber and it's helped them with their diarrhea/loose stool problem. I still can't feed them too much canned food so I've been giving them fat free chicken broth and tiny amounts of canned food every few days.

I was told by a lady at a pet store that most cats who used to eat grocery store canned food seem to like the Wellness canned food. It must be pretty tasty stuff.
