Switching my two boys over to wet is proving to be quite expensive, as I feared it would be, and is why I held off on doing so before. I refuse to feed them the worst quality wet foods because of all the garbage they have in them. My larger cat recently had some urinary issues and the vet gave him some antibiotics. He's doing better now, but since he's having urinary issues I know he needs to be on all wet food diet ASAP and I've also been reading that grains can make urinary issues worse, which means I needed to find a grain-free food. Of course, there being two of them means I also need double the food. The best one I can afford is the basic Sheba food, but it only comes in 3oz cans so if I gave them the normal 5-6oz each a day then I need to give them 4 cans a day. They love it, especially the cuts, and I've been getting away with adding quite a bit of extra water to the food and the bug guy who has the urinary issues just laps all the liquid right up before anything else which is fantastic considering he needs it the most.
I'm wondering if there's any raw food I could buy and prepare myself then add to the wet food? I need to be able to turn the 3oz can into 5-6oz if I can without spending much more. I was reading about making a raw diet and I don't have the necessary supplies nor the extra cash to invest in the supplies, so I can't do anything fancy that would require any of those special tools. If I can't mix raw and canned, then I can't put them on a full-on wet diet and will have to supplement with dry sadly.
