Hi! I use to post here many years ago, but I couldn't remember my old name so I made a new account! I have three living cats, and many more who have passed (my adored orange tabby Moe had to be put to sleep this winter after a battle with FLUTD). My current crew is Jiji, River, and Nip. My...

It's less than 10% of their diet, and they all also get Taurine supplements and I'm considering adding omega 3 and 6 supplements since I avoid fishy foods. I'll look at Weruva too! Before the pandemic I would alternate Trader Joes brand and 4Health brand pates with the Friskies for variety, I...
