Hi. I really really need a recommendation for my cats food. Wet, Dry, whatever. They were/are on Blue Buffalo/Blue Wilderness but after this recent lawsuit I am scared and want to switch them to something high quality. I just feel overwhelmed and hav
Wellness, Weruva and Royal Canin are all good choices. When it comes to a canned food, look for one with a named protein source of animal (not plant) origin. Choose a food that comes from the can looking like a hockey puck. Avoid foods with gravies or sauces. These are typically higher in carbs which can predispose a cat to obesity. Avoid meat meals, by-products as well as store or discount brands. These latter two contain low quality ingredients and more fillers.

What's a good wet food for a young cat that's slightly chubby, and the wet food is high in protein, grain free, affordable, and smooth?
I feel like Wellness fits all of those categories pretty well. I guess affordable is a very relative term, but if you are only feeding one cat, one of the large cans should last you a bit. This is what I feed to my three adult cats and they all love it. You will definitely need to go to a pet food store, tractor supply, or an online supplier to obtain this food rather than a supermarket usually. Hill's also makes pretty good quality (has a grain free line) food, but I don't think their wet food is smooth like you requested. Anyway, hope this helps!

I've been feeding my cats Candidae food, dry hairball control kibble and wet food 2x/day. They like the dry, but LOVE the wet. However t's quite expensive and that brand only carries 3 oz cans of wet food which makes calculating feeding amounts diffi
Hello and thank you for your question. In general, canned food is more biologically appropriate for cats. The joke is that the perfect food for a cat is a mouse. Cats generally do not drink enough water to stay well hydrated, so we hope feeding at least half canned food will be a good option to help prevent kidney problems later in life. Canidae is a great food. Some of their flavors are available in larger cans, so you might look online to buy them. I currently feed my cats Wellness canned food which is also available in larger (12.5 ounce) cans. Unfortunately high quality canned diets are expensive, but you are what you eat, so it's worth it in the long run. Selene looks a little heavy at 15 pounds, but Sam and Kylo look great. In general, the average cat needs about 5.5 ounces of canned food per day if they are not eating any dry food. I hope that answers all your questions. I am happy to do a consultation with you about cat diets if you have any other questions. I am

Is Weruva ok in terms of phosphorous levels for a cat that has high renal #s but not CKD?
In looking over Weruva's website, I see that they claim their food to be very low in phosphorous level. That's good, as phosphorous levels in the food should be low in cats with kidney problems. The problem that I see with the food is that is does not state if it is high in protein or not. The website says it has high quality protein, but does not provide if there is a restricted protein or not in the food. In cats with high renal numbers, it is recommended to have restricted protein levels in the food. That's because many of the toxic products that accumulated in the blood due to kidney problems are due to protein breakdown, so it's important to have reduced levels of protein in the diet. Because cats are obligate carnivores, however, this protein restriction has to be done with care. Given I cannot find any information about this food being low in protein, I would not recommend feeding it to Twitchy. It would be better to feed her a kidney formulated diet, such as Hill k/d or

Hi, i have a british longhair cat that I just recently got last month, he suffered on a diarrhea probably by the changing of food, which is whiskas dry food at the morning and whiskas wet food at the evening,and he is not consuming too much water. Ca
Whiskas is considered a lower-quality brand, but is still nutritionally complete to give. If you're looking for a higher-end food, looking to brands that are readily available at pet stores such as Science Diet or Royal Canin are good choices. These brands offer many different varieties so you can better tailor the food to Lucy's individual needs, and some even have foods specific to certain breeds/sizes of cat. Both also carry a variety of wet and dry foods if you want to feed both, however that isn't always necessary. Feeding twice a day (once in the morning and once at night) as you are currently doing should be fine. If she seems extra hungry or is losing weight, smaller more frequent meals may also help. Your vet can also help you monitor Lucy's weight over time with the new food if you're curious to see how her weight or body condition changes.
