Good brands/flavors *kitten* wet food with limited ingreds.

Edit- sorry this is so long!! [emoji]128522[/emoji]
I have a picky kitten to begin with. Now it seems something in her wet food is making her vomit and have diarrhea. She had two negative tests for parasites. She has ZERO problems on a diet of plain cooked chicken with dry Simply Nourish Source to snack on (no more than 1/4 cup/day). I have done this diet twice for three days each and the vomiting and diarrhea subsides immediately.

Just reintroduced Nutro kitten soft loaf, chicken flavor- her fave. Only gave her 1/4 can at a time along with some chicken, three times yesterday, once this am. She vomited several hrs after eating it this am. So far still normal stool though. But she was eating almost all Nutro for a solid week before this 3-day chicken diet, and she had horribly smelly diarrhea and occasional vomiting.

This food has like *nothing* in it. It's straight-up chicken and chicken liver, with pork broth and guar gum, fish oil, and vitamins. Well, and "natural flavors"- who knows what those are. All the other kitten foods she'd been rotating have multiple other ingredients like sweet potato, tomato, carrots, cranberries, carrageenan, egg, alfalfa, etc. although they are almost all grain-free. (Simply Nourish Kitten Essenials, Simply Nourish Kitten Grain Free Chicken Stew, Merrick chicken pate, Blue Buffalo Freedom, Wellness kitten pate)

I'm disheartened because she is so picky, and the Nutro is the one she will eat almost all the time readily, plus it does not have many ingredients to question. Pork broth? Guar gum? Fish oil? What else could she have issues with? She does not overeat, that's not the issue. (she used to when she was littler, then vomit soon after; she doesn't do that anymore- the vomit is now hours later.)

I'd like to keep her on high-cal food for now because she is a skinny thing and she is still young. The kitten foods mostly have way more calories than adult or all-ages cat food.

Any ideas for other wet foods to try?? [emoji]9785[/emoji]️ I'm so discouraged with feeding this kitten.

Oh- I tried Blue Buffalo Basics wet- their limited ingredient line- and she wouldn't eat it.

And the other problem? She will not eat wet food after it's been refrigerated. I've tried putting it in a glass container after opening- That helped at first, now she is just refusing it.
I may just have to switch her to all dry food. Trying to feed her is like a full-time job. [emoji]128580[/emoji]

My cats have lived out their lives on hard food, my 16 year old still prefers it. If you have no problems with the dry,  and your cat vomits on wet, by all means feed dry. Try some cheaper canned food too, maybe it is something in the processing that is making her vomit. I have fed Friskies for over 30 years with no problems. Some like shredded, some pate, and some bits. To get them to eat refrigerated  food, pop it in the microwave to warm it up and stir it. Sick and congested cats profit from this too because they can smell it better. Just don't get it too hot! Some cats have a sensitive stomach and will vomit often no matter what, there are medicines the vet can give you to combat this, hide them broken up or if powder mashed into a bit of Pill Pocket and mash it onto a piece of bacon, my 16 year old has taken lasix for his heart like this for going on three years. All the luck!

Have you tried heating the leftover wet food in the microwave for a few seconds before serving it?  

Yes. I've tried microwaving it, adding warm water, making it soupy. All have worked in the past sometimes but not all the time. None are working anymore. She just will NOT eat leftovers.

you might try waming the cold food w/o microwaving it (just leave ti out and covered 30 min or so) *AND* adding a topper like bonito flakes, purina fortaflora, etc.
