Please save me some time:)

Zoey is currently on premium edges kitten ( she is about 16 months) she is just starting to fill out so I need to get her on a good adult food....

My trouble is she needs high calorie , this is why my not a kitten os on kitten food but I know that is not good for her for much longer...

She was on Nutros Natural choice indoor ( not high enough in calories ), Feline caviar( good but nearly idetical to nutros max and natural choice mixed), tried Innovas EVO ( just flat didnt work)...

I lloked at premium edges adult foods and they contain things I dont like ....

I am looking for high protein with moderate fat... would prefer one to one meat to grain ratio, no corn ( corn glutan is fine) , no wheat(she's allergic) , no cellulose , no by products ...

I am willing to pay up to 20 bucks for a 6lb bag... I have access to many brands but usually buy at the big pet stores or feed stores ..

Any help??? anyone else have a high energy kitty??

Her current food has 34% protein and 22% fat with 3.5% omega 6

I am so sorry...I can not find a single food that meets all your parameters. I hope if someone out there does know of one, they will post it for you soon!

I had thought about natural choice in the oceanfish flavor but I am not sure if that would be too low... 33 protein and 19 fat

this is so easy witha dog ... everyone makes a high energy formula...

If it meets all your other requirements, why not...just add a fat source/and or increase amt. of wet?

back to dinner...

yeah that is doable..

Thanks Pat

Hope dinner was good ..

If the one protein-one carbohydrate is the focus, I would look at Natural Balance Venison and Green Pea. It has a lower fat content, but like Hissy said, you can add some fat or some wet food.

I plan on checking every one out.. I think pro plan natural may not have by products or wheat ..lol.. just cant remember

well, wysong makes the best canned food imo.

Wysong canned (except for the "just meat" line by Wysong) has garlic in it, which Sharky, like myself, does not feed to their cats.
