I have two 18 year old kitties. One we just found out has very high blood pressure. we immediately changed his diet over to the Hills Prescription K/D. I have researched all the ingredients in the Hills food and was rather disgusted. Not to mention it smells awful and my cats despise it.
I typically feed my cats Halo and Weruva. There seem to be less additives, the food actually looks like "Food" and it doesn't smell like something is rotting right after I open up a can. When I shared my thoughts with my vet he was adamant that I keep my cat on Hills and was trying to dissuade me from seeking out a nutritionist because according to him it is nearly impossible to balance a cats diet with accurate ingredients unless you are a specialist. I find this hard to believe.
There has to be alternatives out there that are holistic and healthy!
I am wondering who out there has struggled with balancing a senior kitties diet that has High Blood pressure and what you fed them to help successfully prolong their lives outside of the awful Prescription foods? Looking for low sodium diets whether you make them from scratch or purchase them?
