So I have three cats (Sr IBD, Two brothers at ~18 months).

One of the younger ones starting yesterday afternoon has been unable keep down his dry/wet mix, but he can eat just the wet alone. I've been feeding them a dry/wet mix for about a month now and have had no problems. The dry has been the same, but they get different wet mixed in every day.


This afternoon it's raw.

The others don't have this issue. How long would you let it go before a Vet visit? Would you pull the dry over the next day or so and see how it goes?

I think he's inhaling because the kibble is intact.


They're eating Nature's Variety Instinct (Canned, Raw) and NV Dry.

If he's swallowing the food whole without chewing, you might try putting the dry part of his mix through a coffee grinder first, before mixing the foods.  Also, if the dry food is staying whole and unchewed, you may want to let it soak with the wet food a little longer until it is totally saturated with liquid.  You might even add some water to the dry/wet mix to make the dry even softer.

Do not mix dry with wet keep separate some cats do not even chew the dry if you do that
Mixed less wet in with the dry last night. Much better for him. The other two could care less as they chow.
