I am trying this food out for Siddha. Of course, Bodhi will be eating it too as there is just no way that I can feed them two separate foods effectively.
Siddha has had random bouts of diarrhea for several weeks now. Usually, just when I'm about to crate him and take him to the vet, his stools get a little better... plus, he never acts like anything is wrong, he plays normally and eats like a champ. So, before taking him the vet, I have decided to give ONE LAST TRY with the Royal Canin Special 33. If this doesn't work, I'm taking the food back and taking the boy to the vet.
However, what I am wondering about is whether or not this food has been a good experience for your cat(s) and how it has helped. Reviews I've seen online look favorable, but I've also seen glowing reviews for Friskies dry food, so it's all relative, I suppose.
Also, one last thing... I was in Petco tonight and they had two different bags of Special 33 - one was almost out of date, so I of course got the fresher bag, however, the ingredients are slightly different on the newer bag. Corn gluten meal has moved up on the list, among other things. Have you noticed this and has it made any difference in your cats?
THANK YOU in advance for ANY help or suggestions you have!! I am trying so hard to do well for my kitties, and I know it's gotta suck having diarrhea so often!
