Hello!
We just brought our cats to their annual checkup and I need some urgently help. One of them is borderline diabetic, weighting 18 pounds. I just feel so bad that we did not notice before he has always been a mellow cat and never gorges or eats to much but still, I'm his mom....
The doc said he needed to drop 1 lb a month until he reaches at least 14, ideally 12 lb and recommended weight control food. I've read about how weight control food is just filled with more carbs than a cat needs, so I'm looking for alternatives.
Sadly I cannot switch to raw, and he does not like wet food.... what can I do??
