I'm trying to figure out a different food for my cat. She's currently on instinct rabbit LID, but I'm not a fan of the tapioca in it. I was thinking of either nulo turkey lid or fromm beef. But fromm has potatoes in it. I was going to go with orijen regional red, but decided against it with the lawsuit that's currently happening.

My cat is 6.5 months old. She currently gets freefed instinct rabbit lid dry and also 1/2 of a 5.5 oz can of the instinct rabbit lid canned food daily.

Hi!
I think I like the Fromm, although if it were me I'd probably rotate the Fromm and the nulo :)

I went ahead and got a bag of nulo. The only one I could find in that specific recipe was the 1.8pound one :noway:..... Petsmart told me I could order a bigger bag online. So I googled, and sure enough it's there.

Fromm is sold locally (Wisconsin) . I found a dog store, and I swear it was only for dogs. I wandered in there last week and they have all kinds of fromm cat food. Lol plus canned.

I've never rotated before. How would I go about doing that? Just like transitioning from one food to the next over the course of a few weeks? TIA!

Yes, exactly, or at whatever "frequency" your kitty likes :)
