Nutro Max is discontinuing my IBS kitty's food. We have tried one prescription food from the vet's office during flare ups, but he would eat it last time. IMO the ingredients aren't great (corn is the one that comes to mind). So, I've called vet's office for suggestions & been researching (hours reading ingredients, called several pet food companies & such).
The formula he's eating (have about 4 weeks supply) is the Chicken & Liver (5.5oz pate). Nutro/Mar's suggestion was to try one of their 3oz formulas, but I think at that price I should be able to get abetter quality food. The other Nutro formulas are not identical anyway. We also have his "brother" on Nutro Max Turkey & Giblets.
Any suggestions? Vet suggested Blue Buffalo Freedom Indoor Cat Adult Chicken Recipe (carrots, sweet potatoes, cellulose, cranberries & blueberries are a hang ups with this one). or Nulo Turkey & Chicken Grain Free (tuna, cranberries, tomato, dried kelp, yucca schidigera extract are the hang ups with this one).
Also, looked at Hound & Gatos, Natural Balance Ultra to name a few.
