Flortification! I love it!
I'm glad it's going so well for 3 of the cats. And sorry to hear of your CRF kitty.
Your wife and the 4th cat may both come around with time to think about things. Raw food is gross (I'm a freakin' VEGETARIAN!) but what the heck happened, where cats ended up with a 100% fast-food, processed-food diet? It's like us eating a fruit roll-up, a can of green beans, and beef jerky for every meal. (or for variety, Hormel "potted beef product")
Thanks! I picked up that term from mrsgreenjeens
I actually switched from the fortiflora to Whole Life freeze dried turkey at LDG's recommendation and HOLY COW it's like magic dust. My super picky 20 pounder doesn't like turkey, raw, cooked, cold cuts - nothing! But she likes freeze dried turkey! At my cats next birthday party, I'm gonna get pinata's full of that!
Only two of the 4 liked the freeze dried chicken (all my cats have something against chicken apparently).
But my main goal of all this was just to get my cats off their addiction of Natural Balance canned and I couldn't for the life of me find a canned they'd all eat - but with a little Whole Life turkey magic dust mixed in/on top, the first canned variety I put down - all 4 chowed down!
I also picked up some Stella and Chewy's freeze dried and 3 of the 4 love it rehydrated with warm water - no toppings necessary. Even the moderately picky (toothless) one that needs toppers on all other raw liked it. Only the 20 pounder doesn't like it.
Also picked up a tub of Radcat raw turkey, and their chicken variety, and their lamb variety. Thawing in the fridge now to portion out for later.
So I'm pretty much switching every other day between raw and canned. They still get the kibble (50/50 mix of Pinnacle Cat and Epigen-90) from about 1am - 6am over night. Just trying toppers and other simple stuff with the 20 pounder, haven't gone into the serious techniques like mixing food, both in same bowl, crushing kibble etc. etc. But I will!
Oh, threw down some raw chicken when cooking some the other day, only the kitten had any interest.
Also been adding 1 capsule of the Proviable-DC proboitic in with the raw every other day. Those Enzymes are still in transit. I'm about to order a metric ton of both Whole Life Turkey and Stella and Chewy's. Still haven't ordered with Hare-Today yet... I'm lazy I guess...
