thank you! I had to do this for a while before, but then I was worried it was wrong! I am happy,that it is okay until I check the ingredients!!~ I do this often. I look at ingredients — not brand. I also give my cats steamed chicken.
thank you kindly !!!
that sounds really good! I give my Luke some raw too time to time !
yes!!! my little Luke tends to get bored very quickly, so I am glad it's safe to mix ! I've been once in a feline nutrition group on face book and I read there that it is dangerous to mix the food.. while I was mixing it already for a good while. Then I stopped, but he got bored quickly so I started mixing again and then found this site and was thinking I should ask about it !!!Sure! Whatever your cat will eat so long as it's healthy. Change up or mix together whatever foods your cat likes.
If there are certain issues where he can't eat certain foods, that changes things a bit but you can still mix whichever foods are okay for your cat to eat.
I'd sure get bored with eating if all I got was a balogna sandwich with mustard every day. Cats probably don't like it any better when they eat the same thing every day, either. Whatever your cat likes best.
yes! our kibble is the same too, all the time. I just recently changed from the veterinary- urinary kibble to normal kibble for neutered cats!
) Use your own good judgement and I'm confident that your cat will be okay. Totally agree. I've stayed out of those groups on Facebook because they're full of fear mongering and pseudoscience. I don't take well to food shaming whether it's for humans or pets.Um... I don't give much credence to things I read on FB.
Certainly, there are plenty of knowledgeable people but it's real common for discussions to devolve into a "herd mentality" that doesn't have much basis in reality.
thank you! also, I have to give him, I think now some supplements. He is now thru lots and lots of treatments and hard medicine for his kidneys and urinary issues and pneumoniaUm... I don't give much credence to things I read on FB.

Yes, you should consider things but, as long as you feed things that your cat can eat without problem, there shouldn't be any issues unless you are feeding things that are exotic or out of the ordinary.
Be careful of supplements, though. There are too many people who go too far down the rabbit hole, into supplements and herbal remedies. Sure, there are plenty of good supplements but there's also a lot of snake oil and even a few things that can be harmful.
Just feed the "regular" things that your cat likes to eat and don't worry about mixing or offering alternatives.
As always... YMMV. (Your mileage may vary.
I used to give him this RXvitamins cranberry when he was off the meds but still needed something to help his urinary tract. It worked very well with him back then, so I found they also have this multivamine thing RXessentials for cats that I was thinking about getting him. Is this brand common there by any chance?
yes! I had stopped looking into those groups too,because of the constant food shaming and like constant aruging who was right and what not.
thats awesome ! My Luke is also on Purina One still! ( I do also have feringa, smilla and purina pro plan wet food, that I keep mixing because he is extremely picky
)
For sure you can! I mix hair ball control dry food with the tasty dry food my cats adore!
does the hairball control food work?
