Hi everyone,
I have 2 cats both ~16yo. One has full CKD, the other has a chicken allergy/IBD.
My CKD cat has been on wet prescription diets and I am considering homemade diets as her little body is getting quite bony even with a healthy appetite.
I have just moved to a very small rural town where specialty diets for my IBD girl are impossible to purchase. I have started feeding her the non-chicken prescription diets that my CKD girl has been eating, due to her age and potential for also having kidney issues. This diet as also caused this girl to start losing muscle mass.
I was wondering if there were recommendations from people with similar cats (chicken allergy/IBD and CKD) for either orderable specialty diets without chicken, or for homemade diets that can accommodate both cats?
If there are homemade recommendations, I am wondering if you could also include sources for all the vital ingredients that would go into the homemade diets as well as recipes?
I have looked through some of the forums but the postings are a bit dated and was hoping there may be some updated info and sources.
Thank you so much.
