I have an older kitty who I'm trying to figure out food for. We had the SDMA test performed on him and it came back showing some early signs of kidney issues, so I'm trying to be very aware of what I'm feeding him. He currently eats Wellness Healthy Indulgence Shreds, which isn't terrible but I know we can be doing better. I know the Morsels are better but he vomits when he eats those.
I really like the Weruva brand from what I've seen, but I'm concerned about the cost vs. the calorie count. My cat also has hyperthyroidism that's being treated, but we haven't really gotten his levels to steady out over the last 3 years. My vet always compliments my ability to keep weight on him and I've been able to do that by supplementing dry food. Obviously that's not an option anymore.
So if I move forward with Weruva, how do I keep the calorie count up without feeding an insane amount of cans each day? Should I find another brand that's also great for CRF kitties and mix it in? At that point, is it even worth feeding Weruva at all?
