Hello! I need some help and recommendations for good, healthy cat foods. I have 3 cats (ages 6-11). I have noticed in the year that one of the 11 year old cats (Lucy) seems to be losing a little bit of weight. Granted, she was overweight before so she is not looking malnourished or anything, just thinner. I think part of it is the addition of the 6 year old cat (Rita) we got. Lucy seems to be eating a bit less and running around a lot more with this new cat.
However, it makes me worried that she has lost some weight so I am looking at what I can do diet wise to help. In terms of dry food, I cam currently looking at :
Blue Buffalo Indoor Formula
Purina ONE Indoor Advantage
Goodlife Indoor Cat
I've been trying to find ones that list meat as the first ingredient and don't have certain grains. At this point, I am overwhelmed with the choice.
For wet treats, my cats love the Whiskers Choice Cuts in Gravy...which in reading I have found might not be too good for them. It looks like the wet foods should not have much gravy or grains in it. The wet food I am thinking about getting is Purina Beyond Natural Canned Food.
I am just overwhelmed and want to be sure I am choosing the very best things to feed my cats. Can any of you let me know what you feel are the best forms of dry food, weight food, and treats you give you cats? Also, any recommendations on encouraging weight gain on my Lucy? I just want to be the best kitty mom I can be and give them a super long, happy, healthy life. If you can give me any tips on good foods, I (and Lucy, Dez, and Rita) would greatly appreciate it!
