When my cat developed scabs down her back, the vet suggested a allergy trial. I went and bought some Natural Balance Green Pea and Duck dry and canned and fed it for 2 months. She never showed improvement, and started getting worse during the last couple weeks. I made another vet appointment and switched her to California Natural Chicken and Brown Rice dry. The lady at the petstore recommended it as a limited ingredient food to try. After 5 days on that she started showing some improvement. Her scabs were drying up and some were falling off, but she was still itchy. So, I took her to the vet anyways and they gave her a steroid injection. They said that she could be allergic to the peas or the duck. I feel like such a dope for ordering all that NB Duck off petfooddirect, when that might have been the cause this whole time. The shelter is going to be happy with such a large donation of food.
Now, I'm looking for some canned food options with only chicken and/or rice as the main ingredients.
At the petstore I found Evanger's Organic Braised Chicken. The ingredients are:
Organic Chicken, Organic Chicken Broth, Organic Chicken Liver, Organic Brown Rice, diCalcium Phosphate, Potassium Chloride, Organic Guar Gum, Organic Blueberries, Taurine, Vitamin A Acetate, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin E Supplement, Ascorbic Acid (source of Vitamin C), Niacin Supplement, d-Calcium Pantothenate, Riboflavin Supplement, Thiamin Mononitrate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Biotin, Folic Acid, Menadione Sodium Bisulfite Complex (source of Vitamin K), Zinc Proteinate, Ferrous Proteinate, Manganese Proteinate, Copper Proteinate, Calcium Iodate and Sodium Selenite.
It has blueberries, so I'm not sure if it would be an option to use for the next 8-12 weeks. I didn't see any By Nature Organics at the petstore (another petstore where I used to live had that). I think Kroger might have the Brandon Farms 95% meats, but I'll have to check there today. I can also order a case of canned food from petfooddirect.
