Greetings, this is my first post! I've been in search of a wet food that my cat will enjoy and won't upset his stomach. For the longest time I was feeding him Tiki Cat's Venison wet food, but that's been discontinued. I've been on the search for a food that he'll like and I'm not sure if I've found success... I've had issues with many brands, but recently tried Ziwi Peak and he seems to enjoy it. I purchased all flavors but chicken (he hates chicken.) So far he seems to be doing good on the venison and lamb, but for some reason the beef has made him throw up twice, usually happening 25 minutes after eating which was concerning. What is also concerning is the fact that there's chickpeas in all the flavors, and mussels. At first I didn't think too much about the mussels, but with them being seafood.. am I basically feeding my cat seafood everyday? And as for the chickpeas, I know this bumps up the carb count, but is the amount in Ziwi Peak enough to be concerned/ bad for my kitty?
With the mussels and chickpeas, I've considered trying Rawrz, but I'm not sure if he'll like them. He's very finicky when it comes to beef, turkey, rabbit, and duck which are the only flavors they have (besides chicken, which again he hates...)
(He initially ate Tiki Cat's After dark flavors with beef, duck, and rabbit, but in the end he only wanted to eat their venison. It seems to be his favorite meat....)
I'd love to hear other's thoughts on Ziwi Peak (specifically their venison food), and their cat's experience with their food in recent years.
And if possible any other wet food brand recommendations (looking mostly for ones with venison, but willing to try anything at this point...)
Foods I've tried in the past that have failed:
Weruva (caused him to vomit an unusual amount)
Made by Nacho (diarrhea, also got tired of turkey and beef)
Tiki Cat (success, but they only have seafood and chicken flavors, big no no)
Sheba (success-ish, eventually got tired of their chicken and turkey, other flavors gave diarrhea)
Instinct (didn't want to touch it. don't know why..)
