    My kitty might have cancer and I am scared to death

    I am giving him Gerber's Baby food. Flavors chicken, ham, or beef. It isn't good for him long term but to get the weight back on him it was recommended and he wouldn't eat anything else. It has been the only thing that he can keep down. You just have to make sure the only ingredients are meat...

    What do you feed your kitty that has IBD? I'm feeding grain free right now canned foods. I'm pretty much offering anything that I can get him to eat.  And like I said he is very picky and he is not liking what I have. I'm going to try Gerber baby food today. Do you have to regularly give your...
