Ok, ok, I've been talking about this for awhile now, and now that I'm back from vacation, I'm ready. Here are my issues:
Many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
- I'm still free feeding dry
- I have one skin and bones kitty (CRF) and one porky pig kitty, and currently (with our Vet's OK) we are feeding a prescription high protein, low carb dry food to all the cats, and supplementing the CRF guy with lots of extra food (all crap, but it's all he'll eat with the exception of Halo Freeze Dried Chicken) I thought about getting Evo dry to help with the transition, but it's so high calorie that I'm afraid of what it might do to our already fat guy (Darko), and besides, when we tried Wellness Core, two of our four hated it, so it could be the same with Evo.
- Sven (CRF) gets his pills in soft treats because they taste bad. I don't see that changing, but it's only twice a day. Problem is, I have to give them to him with other treats otherwise he knows which one is "loaded".
- I'm getting discouraged now after reading Lauren's, LDG's, Tammy's and even Carolina's threads and seeing the problems they're having. What the heck's going on lately?
- My 3 boys LOVE the Halo freeze dried chicken in in the "styrofoam state", but HATE it when I reconstitute it
- Sven and Callie somewhat will eat certain canned foods, but none of them are really gung ho on any that I have found yet, and I have been trying to convert them for over a year now. If I'm lucky, I can get them to eat maybe a teas - tbls at a time
- I'm not rich, and cannot afford to spend hundreds of dollars a month on this, especially if they aren't going to eat it. BUT, I certainly don't mind making their food. I do have the time, however, finding the different proteins might prove problematic. Especially if I don't want the bones in the meat, as I think I would prefer adding bone meal rather than buying a grinder, etc.
- I have a brain issue (seriously), and cannot process too much information or it all becomes mush. I need simple instructions on how to do this. I have looked at some of the different websites out there, but once I start reading, my head starts spinning and all the words start flying out my ears
Many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
