Hi,
I am in need of some recommendations for quality cat foods for my fur babies. I have two cats with very different tastes.
Fur baby #1 is a four year old female domestic shorthair. She will not eat wet food no matter what I try. I think it's a texture thing, not a taste thing because she will lick the juice off the wet food but she won't eat the moist food itself. It's like she doesn't know what to do with it; she just pushes it around with her tongue. But she tends to throw up a lot of in digested food. Right now she eats Purina indoor and Purina complete from Walmart mixed 1:1 ratio.
Fur baby #2 is a 7 month old male domestic longhair. He will eat wet or dry food, but he refuses to eat any meat flavored foods. I have tried chicken, turkey, and beef so far and he barely touches them. He loves salmon, but I worry about feeding him food made with fish because I've heard it's bad for cats. His dry food he eats is Purina kitten chow from Walmart. The canned food he eats is Nature's Variety Instinct from Prtsmart. It was the closest thing I could find to no byproducts, grains, soy, etc. and it's made with real meat, vegetables, and fruits. The problem is it only comes in beef, chicken, turkey, rabbit, duck, venison, and salmon; he doesn't like the meat ones, and I heard salmon isn't good for them. He has an easily upset stomach too and he is also resistant to medications (if that can affect digestion/nutrition in any way). He does not have feline leukemia or feline AIDS thank God. He is currently being treated for Feline Infectious Anemia (hemobartonella). He caught it because we couldn't get his fleas under control because his body was resistant to the flea treatment our vet uses (Advantage ll).
I want good quality foods for both my cats, dry and canned. I don't want something that has grain, gluten, soy, meal, or any byproducts. I want it to have real meat, fruits, and vegetables. Can you recommend some good quality fm at foods please? Even the ones my vet carries and recommended don't have real ingredients and are full of meal and byproducts.
