Thanks everyone for the responses. My head is spinning and my heart is very heavy. I am trying to adjust to life without Rey and its incredible hard. He has been apart of my life for 15 yrs. It's hard being in certain areas of the house were I am used to seeing him in his favorite spots. Past...

My boy Rey crossed the bridge yesterday. He was 15 yrs old. I had him since he was 6 wks old. His health was declining and his quality of life was so compromised. I mauled and mauled over the choice to have him put down. It was time. He was barely able to walk anymore (tripod w/arthritis) and...

Just looking back on this thread and how I should have listened to my own instincts. Rey will be crossing the rainbow bridge on Tuesday. His arthritis is really bad. He is also in the beginning of kidney failure. He has been drinking so much water and going to the box so much. (has to be...

I am looking around. The thing is I just hope they don't push these RX diets as well. I need alternatives. I don't want to feed Rey something for urinary measures and then develop skin/ear issues. Food is suppose to heal not harm :(

Rawz looks great but pricey :( I wish Rey ate only wet food. He is too used to the dry over the yrs. He is also very stubborn. (He gets that from me hehe jk) What doesn't make sense. He has urinary issues but feed him a dry diet??? Thankfully I am learning more on pet nutrition. Sounds like...

Thinking about that some more. The RD will lead me back to ear issues and skin issues...ahhhh. I need a new vet

Right now I am going to go back to the RD. As for the cans I am going to trial some BFF (Turkey/duck) and he likes the Pride By Instinct (Rabbit) but I heard they may be discontinuing that line. If all else fails going to order him a pizza lol jk =)

Thanks about the BFF. It's the same company that makes Weruva I think. I might grab a few cans of that. Like the Turkey or Duck to mix up his proteins to rule out the chicken being the allergy. Rey is just a tabby. =) My friend has a Siamese and it's always barfing up something. Think it's...

Chewy rocks!!! They refunded my money on the Blue. I just don't know what to do. I could get a small bag of the RD. He never got sick on that. If the skin/ear stuff repeats then I think I would be looking at Royal Doritos(Jk)Hydrolzed it has the urinary support. Really frustrated with my vets...

@mrsgreenjeens Thanks thats is on reading list =)

@mizzely I been using this website to bypass all the grains, gluten, meat byproducts etc. CatFoodDB - Cat Food Reviews to help you find the best cat food for your cat Rey has a sensitivity to something just not sure what it is. I will look at those brands you suggested =)

Vet's office was no help. They said reach out to Royal Cainan, Purina and see whats available.

LOL - Rey would probably go on Uber Eats and have pizza and wings delivered =) See that's the thing. There was no transition period it was straight to the BB RX food. The Now Fresh I did slowly. 1/4 new and 3/4 RD for a few weeks. Unfortunately I had no RD left when we switched and asked for...

Ok little background I have an overweight kitty (Tripod doesn't exercise much obviously) who also had crystals when he was a kitten. Was told he would be on a RX diet his whole life to managed it. He has been on Hill R/D for nearly a decade. He has not had any crystals issues BUT I think he...

Hopefully tomorrow when you go for the ultrasound it will give you the answers you need to figure this all out and get Krista feeling better. Rey dropped a bunch of weight quickly when he was going through his pancreatitis. What helped him and was good for his belly was goat milk (primal) I...
