Can someone tell me exactly what the Low Residue Eukanuba prescription food is low on?
I've been looking online, (of course). and I really can't find anything that explains what the low residue means so I can try and find a similar type and hopefully in canned.

Can someone help me with this?

it means low stuff coming out and easy of the tummy... highly digestable and gentle on the insides

Maybe if I word this another way.


I have some California Natural, Innova Regular and Felidae on order. Would these foods be easy enough on the kitten so as not to start her diarrhea back up again.... maybe?

Thanks Sharky!

I really am inclined to think that her problem seems to be more with the canned foods than the dry, but I also want to be careful and not use my poor girl as a test subject if it can be avoided.

I've been kind of sneaking wet food to the others for now for fear of going backwards again, but Boo is no dummy and knows the others are getting something she wants and her nose is working overtime.
I'm so used to dealing with old iron stomach ferals that this is quite a new venture for me.
