Hi I've been here before with Matt, he's the domestic shorthair former stray who can't handle most kibble. We finally got him settled onto Wholesome Blend Easy To Digest for his base nutrition, and now I'm working on his wet food. I found he loved friskies, but the vet warned me off it based on salt content and calories(also he gained weight in the week he was eating it) so I went to the local pet health food store and got something simpler. California Natural is what was suggested so I bought 3 cans and he loves it. I gave him the same amount as friskies, and he's asking for more already, it's only 11:30am.
Now if the can says give half the can twice daily, and the kibble says give 3/4 cup daily.....what's a good balance? so far I've been 1/2cup kibble/day with about a tbsp twice daily of wet. this worked with friskies, but he's asking for more with the California Natural, and both of his bowls have been emptied as well, which he didn't do while on the Wholesome Blend kibble/friskies wet combination.
Any suggestions?
