I adopted a kitten a little over a week ago, and I had all these intentions of feeding him the best quality food. He was unfortunately very sick and couldn't smell his food; he wouldn't touch any of it so I ended up having to give him kitten milk by hand for a few days.
Anyway, his URI is clearing up and some days he loves my primal freeze dried dehydrated food. and other days he won't touch it, and prefers fancy feast instead. And vice versa. I bought the cheaper food to make the transition from shelter food easier on his tummy and nerves, but I would prefer to steer him towards strictly healthy foods so he doesn't have such gastrointestinal distress. When he eats fancy feast he has runnier (and smellier) poop from the starch in the gravy and I can tell he doesn't feel good. but what can I do when he decides to be picky and not eat the freeze dried?
Do you guys have any healthy brands that your cats enjoy? The only thing he has given a really strong reaction towards was freeze dried salmon treats, so I ordered a tiki kitty variety pack to see if he likes that.. but I would prefer his protein sources to be more varied than just fish.
