My kittens are 3 months and 7 months. I've been feeding them purina cat chow or kitten chow. (Whichever was available and it never upset their stomachs in anyway.) But now that I work at a pet store, i get discounts on high quality foods such as wellness, canidae, royal canin, solid gold ect. so i figured since it'd be the same price i might as well start switching them to a better food. So i bought a small bag of canidae to start the transition since i knew that the nutrients were much different than purina products and therefore I shouldn't make a drastic change. Well for 2 weeks all was good, the youngest one, Faye, spit up a little bit of cat grass on the second day but it was nothing major and she was back to normal afterwards. i'd slowly give them more of the canidae every 3 days and so now they're mostly on canidae with a little bit of the purina cat chow mixed in. Just a little while ago however, Rayne, my oldest baby, vomited. It was really sudden and she hadn't acted abnormal before or after vomiting. It looked a lot like if i had put some water in her dry food and just let it set for a while. So it was not a liquid but more like a weird paste of sorts. I'm just wondering if i'm still taking the transition too quick, or if she's eating too much. (she doesn't particularly like the new food though and doesn't seem to eat it without the purina mixed in. In fact a lot of times she'll try to eat around the canidae.. ) Should i try another food instead or would that be too big of a change? I'm just not sure what to do. This is my first year owning cats and Rayne's grown up really well with the purina so should i really change it? I just wanna do what's best for my furry babies.
