I have a three year old domestic short hair cat, who only responds to kitty. Kitty has always been greedy with food, she always wants her bowl full to the brim and on average goes through a bowl and a half of whiskers brand dry cat food.
Now when kitty was a year old, my black lab leaped on her and she fractured her leg on a very weird and uncomfortable spot. It was between her thigh and ankle so they decided it would be best to keep in her in a confined space and let the injury heal itself instead of getting her a cast. Kitty seems comfortable right now, walking and running, albeit with a limp, but she is not comfortable enough to play for long periods of time like she used to. So between her injury and her cheap, ( I'm quite sure ) unhealthy food and her greedy mentality, she is rapidly gaining weight. She goes into the vets office once a year for check ups, but because I wasn't comfortable with her current vet ( the same one who sees my dogs ) I literally did an in and out check up. I did not ask for info and I was not given info other than " she is generally healthy " ( unprofessional and unethical. I know . To add to that my vet tried to force me to get her a three year rabies shot which is rumored to cause cancer ).
So it's time for a new start for kitty. I'm looking for a new vet, and meanwhile I'm trying to find her better food and get her into a healthier life style . How and where do I start and do you guys have any budget friendly ( 30 dollars tops ) cat food recommendations ?
