We've been feeding our kitten a combination of Innova EVO Turkey & Chicken dry food along with Merrick canned food. He loves his food, and seems to be doing really well on it. Except for one problem. Every few days, he has a gooey, sticky stool. Today it was bad enough that he stepped in it and got it all over his paw, making a mess all around the litter box. Poor guy! So, we need to make a change.
I'm assuming the EVO is the primary problem. This is the first time we've fed a cat grain free food. Almost all of the cats in our extended family eat Merrick canned food without any problems. I know Natura was acquired by P&G, which had me thinking about switching away from EVO anyway. But I'm not sure what the best alternative is. I've read good things about Orijen and Blue Buffalo, but would he be likely to have the same stool problems on those? Are there others we should consider? I'm not concerned about cost -- just quality (and solving the current doodoo problem). Keep in mind, we need something appropriate for a kitten.
Thanks!
