When we first brought Pangur home (Feb 14th) he had only been back at the pound a day and they didn't know what the couple that surrendered him had been feeding him.
We started him on Blue Buffalo Indoor Health in the blue bag and a variety of canned Blue Buffalo flavors. Pangur started to reject the Blue wet food after a week but has always happily gobbled the dry. Right now his wet gets switched up between a bunch of holistic brands but he seems to most like the Halo pate and Soulistic pouches. I think we will probably settle on those two after I run through the cans I bought to find a favorite for him. He gets one can of wet (half in the morning, half in the evening) and we free feed the dry.
Right from the start he had bad gas and loose stools (not liquid, but not normal). His gas and the smell of his BMs has improved a lot since we stopped the Blue wet, but the stool is still soft. We aren't sure if he still needs to adjust to the Blue or if we need to switch dry brands? It has been almost a month now. I am not sure if it is a sensitivity to chicken, having his food switched up, something in the Blue all together, or something else.
He is a DMH so it is a bit of a burden when he gets dingle berries and I have to chase him down with TP, or the couple of times he has stepped in it a bit and tracked it around. Yuck. He has an appt at the cat only groomers next month and will get his hind shaved, but until then we are dealing with it.
I have been looking at getting him on the Solid Gold Indigo Moon if we do switch because the ingredients seem just as good or better than Blue and it has a good price point.
