Knowing I can't afford to feed them all wet and they like a good crunch, I've been on the hunt for the best dry food within reason. After a few trial and errors, I settled on a mix of Instinct Protein and Wysong Epigen. My girls (5 and 7), love the food and while they're going through seasonal shedding right now, everything else seems good. Except....
Their pee. It smells super strongly of ammonia when I scoop the box. I read somewhere that all that protein can make their pee extra potent. Is this something y'all have experienced? Epigen is 60% protein and the Instinct is 47% (I think), so is that too much protein for their kidneys to handle and so that's why it smells? Or is this just 100% normal and something I should get used to?
