My short hair Mickey (female) had reached a point where she was throwing up her kibble constantly (she's around 10). I got her totally checked out at the vet, ultrasound and everything, and it was determined that nothing was wrong but I should put her on canned food (Hills Digestive Care i/d) and give her a tiny bit of Pepcid AC with meals. Well, this is working great, she doesn't throw up anymore at all, except for a hairball every now and then. BUT she is just constantly hungry it seems, and starts pestering me for food at around 5 am in the morning and then at 3 pm in the afternoon. Also she and our other cat (who will eat anything and has no issues, but is eating wet food too now, 'cause Mick is) seem to be fighting a lot more than they used to. Not violently... but they seem to always be wrestling and ambushing each other, with hisses and everything, when it's getting vaguely near mealtime. Certainly no one's getting hurt, and no claws are involved...it's just more than they usually do. And I really think Mickey is the instigator, so it's like she's picking fights from hunger/restlessness, and just generally being a jerk. Has this happened to anyone else, and also, the Hills is SO EXPENSIVE and we go through so much of it...4 little cans a day...it rules my life...I was wondering if anyone knew of cheaper digestive care canned food that they like? Thank you!
