Adult with Wild Hare

Adult Rich in Chicken

Adult with Anchovies


My cat is currently eating renal wet because of kidney stones but he is under medication for dissolving of stones for 2 months now. So far he has improved a lot. His medication is really good. Physically, he is looking good and looks very happy. He is scheduled for ultrasound again on dec 24. I just want to feed him dry occassionally once his stone is removed and which of this is better? Bwild hare or anchovies or Monge Adult Chicken. I will give him mostly wet food and dry food occasionally. I've read about giving wet food more than dry and will give wet mostly just want to ask which from this 3 is better?

I would avoid fish in general. As for the other two they look super carb heavy. Too many grains. Is there anything grain free you can get in our area? With meat as the first three ingredients?

I think the wild hare looks to be the best. The chicken has more rice than the other two. Cats are obligate carnivores so they don't need grains, and so lots of cat owners feed grain-free, so that's why I think the food with less grains is better. Meat is generally preferred to fish as the main protein for cats because fish can contain mercury.

There are gran free dry which is orijen and taste of the wild but the protein is 40 percent. Vet said avoid high protein. But I will give him dry occassionally only when no more stones is there. His food for now is K/d wet only with added water. I will still give him wet food as the main food. If there is no more stones can I feed him high protein diet? For the wet food we have fancy feast classics but all are fish fish flavors. Monge wet food and kitcat has Fructo oligosaccharide they said it can trigger calcium oxalate stones. If you think hare is the best choice I'll get that instead. Whiskas is tuna and low quality. Lechat wet food has lots of non fish flavor but also has carbs

~ Any wet food is high moisture and lower in protein. I hear a lot of warnings about too much dry food - even if it's grain free . Are you giving kitty subdermal saline hydration ?
