About 8 weeks ago I left PURINA ;-) and switched the 3 cats to different foods. they tried maybe 7 brands and I was like WOW, they eat and like them all!
Now they don't like anything!
and I realize at 1.99 a can or so, I don't think I can do it. also small cans are 1.29 or so and they'd need 2 putting me at 2.60 per meal. much higher than friskies. the beyond was that price though and they had 1 can a day beyond and 2 5.5's of friskies.
so I have to try to stick with cans 5.5 ounce that max out at 1.89!!! no instinct or rawz which are pushing $3
anyway now all 3 have a bit of diarrehea or constipated! No one pooping now in 2 days except 1 tiny diarrehea and I don't know who. I tried the shaved crayon trick but couldn't tell and still no poop.
the one cat had liquid stinky horrible diarrhea for one morning and I don't think anything since (almost 3 days, still no poop but acting and eating fine)
questions:
1) what can I give them? psyillim? coconut oil?
2) back to foods. they now hate fromm. I tried wellness and they do like it. not sure if I should stick with it. mixed reviews. and as we all know some cats live to 18 on friskies so I am just SOOOOOOO confused.
3) Nulo. they like but has tuna in the cans I have so I don't want to give that every meal.
They've been eating it 8 weeks so I doubt it caused the liquid stool?
4) Weruva...I am thinking this may have caused the diarrahea since he got it twice the week I was giving 1 can a day. however it really doesn't have many ingreds( I used the chickens only but did give the mack and jack once, 2 days before the diarrehea, and they don't eat fish often)
5) health extension. they all HATE the mini can with pumpkin but are OK with the turkey large can. I have mixed feelings about this brand? input?
6) yet to try and considering : anyone else have input besides those I chatted with?
Redbarn ( never tried- good ingreds but I really feel this company caters 95% to dogs)
Halo never tried...why do I WANT to like this but not sure?
Bravo doesn't seem popular but seems good ingredients?
Earthborn high carbs and lots of bad reviews on their Fb page recently but cats "liked"
Newman's Organic- thoughts?
I get so annoyed and keep wanting to go back to Friskies just out of frustration but even my kids say that our older cat has so much more energy than before!
any other thoughts? and thanks!
