hi
i have an 18yr old girl with possible IBD or intestinal lymphoma and CRF who also has food allergies, or sensitivies, i think the vet called them.
i know she cannot have wheat, corn, eggs, soy,salmon, and tuna.
NO artificial colors or preservatives.
turkey is still a question mark.
her vet said to stay away from fish because it has a lot of allergens, and to limit liver (which she loves)
so i was feeding her wellness chicken and FF gourmet chicken feast (the only one without wheat)
she was ok with that, until she suddenly stopped eating and i was given the go-ahead to give her whatever she would eat.
so i got a bunch of different foods, and well, now she is holding out for the things she liked the best (some of the fish stuff, and her beloved liver)
now that she has gotten her appetite back, i have a bunch of food she either can't eat, or shouldn't
and do not know if i can ever get her to go back to eating the Wellness chicken.
(she will still eat the FF chicken, but it has too much sodium to be her sole diet)
does anyone know of a good (meat as the first ingredient, NOT by products)
canned food, that is chicken flavored
that does not have all those things listed above?
yes this is a tough one!!
i have gone thru the pet store reading labels and just when i think a food is going to work out, i see that it has one thing she cannot have.
i *might* consider a food with eggs in it, as that was another thing we were not completely sure she was allergic to, but her vet thought it was a good idea to eliminate it if i could.
thanks for any suggestions!!
