Hello guys,
Can someone recommend high end wet food for cats? Two of my cats have sensitive tummy, I can only feed them wet food for them to have solid poop. I have dry food on standby but only one out of three cats can eat it. Thinking of trying Royal Canin Sensible 33 soon, since dry food is so convenient.
Currently only feeding them those canned Whiskas. I'm not sure if that's healthy or not. :|
My rule of thumb, as long as they have good bowel movement, then you're feeding them well. Now about the nutrient, whiskas canned food should be ok I think. The whiskas dry food that I don't recommend.
For dry food, you should look at the ingredient. If possible you should void dry food if it have maize/corn as the main source of nutrient. Other ingredient like rice, I'm ok with it. I'm more liberal than other cat's lover. My cat's fur is shiny, they are healthy, and have good bowel movement. Anyway, you should choose dry food that use chicken/fish/lamb as main source of protein.
The correct way to change the food, you should slowly introduced the new food to them. If your cat have sensitive tummy, it can be time consuming. I have been there & you should be patient. My suggestion is that, put a small amount of new food with their ordinary food. Maintain the ratio until your sensitive tummy cat get used to the new food, then you can increase the amount of new food & decrease the amount of old food. I can not really give you how long it may take but if their poop remain wet or watery after a week, you should stop feeding them the new food & return to their ordinary food right away. Although if the poop is still watery (wet is ok IMO but watery is big no no) after a couple of days, you should just stop feeding them the new food right away. Try other dry food.
