I made the decision to switch the kitties to the diet version of Purina One. They like the regular kind very much. Oliver is just not the "ideal" shape anymore, but he's not really fat. Tripod is getting just a little chubbby. They were at the vet's months ago and the vet did not recommend putting either on a diet, but he said that Tri was getting close. Now I am having a hard time defining his neck,
so I think its time.
I still give them kitty treats, but I cut down on the amount. I mixed the dry food at first (part regular, part diet).
Heres the problem. I have not seen Oliver eat the new food. He might be, but I feed them in the morning and we are in work all day. It has been 2 days. How long should I wait? It would be very hard to separate them and probably cause a lot of stress.
Of course, the other option is just give them less of the regular food. I may need to do that, but kind of want to avoid that for selfish reasons: When Olivers dish is empty in the middle of the night, he attacks my feet.
