I'm going to continue the Blue NP alligator since it's only been 3 weeks and she got in the dog food ~4 weeks ago... but I'm going to exclude the wet version. I have a hypothesis with very little foundation that she's allergic to the gums in wet food.

No, but I've read that non-prescription foods are not reliable. For instance, if the cat has a protein allergy, they're frequently manufactured on the same lines that produced other foods and are thus cross-contaminated. At any rate, it's 12 weeks per food trial and I've only had her a year so...
