Hi, new here and need some advice.
I live in Canada and I'm trying to select new food for my cat.
He's 7 months old, 8 pounds and neutered. He was bottle fed because the mom rejected her litter and he's had a few issues so I worry.
He's currently on lifetime chicken, turkey and oatmeal. I'm not overly pleased with it, his weight is great but his coat is greasy and he seems to be pooping a lot on this food. Before this he was on chicken soup for the kittens soul, after buying 3 other foods he wouldn't touch.
He gets 1/2 cup of kibble on most days. Sometimes extra at night if he's hungry.
He's also getting the bff canned food twice a day. About 1.5 oz per feeding. We alternate the flavors but he won't eat more then that at a feeding. Sometimes we throw a can of natural balance food or a pouch in for more variety
I was told not to put him on a fish based dry because the wet is almost all fish based. But the ash in his current food seems high (6%). I've only had older cats that I've fostered so choosing a food is new to me. What are the more reccomended brands in Canada?
Currently paying $15.99 for a 5 pound bag and would like to stay around that price point.
