My 12 year old has IBD but it's fairly mild. It's only been 10 days but he's doing so well off of the dry food (Blue Sensistive Stomach) and on canned that I'm really amazed. Again, it's only been 10 days but I have high hopes. I try to avoid carageenan but I'm not positive it bothers him. The other gums seem to be ok but again, not 100% sure. Rice is a no go, at least the whole rice in canned food is a definite no go and I'm wondering if the rice in the BB dry was a problem all along.
At any rate, I picked up a couple cans of Soulistic to try. It doesn't have carageenan but does have some other gums. My biggest concern is the dried egg though.
Is there any general concensus on dried egg and cats with sensitive tummies or is it an individual cat thing like most everything else?
Also, anyone have experience, good or bad, with Soulistic pates, or Soulistic in general?
I think we've settled on Stella and Chewy's pates as his main food. He likes it and tolerates it very well (so far). But, it's a bit expensive and more than one box a day is pushing the limits. I've been supplementing with Sheba which he also likes but concerned with some of the ingredients (artificial colors/flavors, Menadione, DL-Methionine [maybe a concern?] and overall byproduct quality).
The Soulistic looks like it may be a healthier food than the Sheba and it's less expensive.
Opinions appreciated.
Thanks
