As many of you know Duke my kitty is a little overweight. He is officially 24lbs.
He has been big for quite a while. My mom raised him from a kitten and the vet took him off kitten food at 6 months because he was already at adult weight. At a year and a half Duke was put on Feline R/D which is a high moisture wet food. Duke lost his little kitty will to live he was listless, wouldn't even get up to eat, he became dehidrated from his lack of energy (not enough enery to get up and drink) I almost lost him because of that food (The vet prescribed it for him).
Since then I have had him on an all dry food diet, an all wet food diet, a high protine diet, a low protine diet... basically everything I can think of.
I have recently become concerned about a renial problem as Duke tends to voide large amounts of fluid. I am affraid that if Duke dosn't loose weight I will lose him due to developing health problems.
Has anyone had any success with a cat diet that I have not tried? Please give my suggestions.
