We feed wet food only to most of the kitties, but we're juggling some with urinary crystal issues one with allergies, and an overweight kitty. We only switched to the all wet diet last November, and after nine years of free feeding, two of the boys and one of the females just haven't made the switch, so I supplement those three with dry food.
Flowerbelle gets the Science Diet Hairball dry food (in addition to her four small meals of wet food a day).
Lazlo and Tuxedo get a dry mixture of prescription c/d, Instinct (chicken) dry, Before Grain (chicken) dry, and Orijen (dry). They need the prescription, but I improve the quality by mixing the others. The mix is 70% prescription, and 10% each of the other three.
None of these are sold at Petsmart.
The wet food I feed is rotation:
Instinct: Rabbit, Venison, Turkey, and Chicken. (Petsmart doesn't sell Instinct). (The peas and carrots are easy to pick out).
Evo: Venison, Duck, and the Chicken/Turkey.
Weruva... Several of the chicken/chicken & rice formulas (they have some potato starch in the them, but it's a very small amount as a binder for the gravy). (The peas and carrots are easy to pick out).
Holistic Select: Lamb & Chicken, Duck & Turkey, and Turkey & Barley.
Wellness: Chicken. I also feed the Turkey & Duck pouches (I avoid the Wellness stuff with potato starch).
Royal Canin: Ultra Light.
Petsmart only carries the Wellness and the Royal Canin. So it's not worth the 45 minute drive.
We're on the east coast: I either order online if it works out to be cheaper with shipping than buying them at Pet Valu, which is local.
The litter we use is Walmart Special Kitty (green box: unscented, 99.9% dust free). $5.49 for ... 25 pounds? 28 pounds? Whatever the large box is.
