Hi All,
The choices are overwhelming and there are many strong opinions. I started her on the canine royal wet (kitten) and fromm dry. Why? Well, the vet had a lot of the royal and I got the fromm from a neighbor. 20 years ago we had science digest for our previous cats and they seemed to do well on it. I've seen the reviews for Blue and many other brands.
Is it as simple as try to get "premium" food and whatever she likes goes? It makes sense that every cat is different and has preferences so one should experiment but otherwise I'm just overwhelmed.
Last but not least; we don't want grain in their food or is it specific grain? She does not seem to have any diarrhea, the initial blood work came back "clean".
She is underweight (5lb for 8 months) but I don't want to overfeed her. At the moment it is half a can of royal canine morning and evening (I think 5.8 oz) and twice an eighth of a cup of dry food around noon and before bedtime.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I have read other posts and will consult the catfooddb
My assumption is I try different brands and see what sticks but I appreciate any brands or specific ingredients I should avoid.
Again any and all advice is appreciated, sorry if this has been addressed countless times in some form or another.
