In regards to higher carb foods (yesterday), I know Pudge has sensitivities,… is it just specific protein sources? does he need to stick with Turkey and Rabbit (I believe those are the two you’ve mentioned before), or can he have something with tuna too? Because our 2nd cat is eating the leftover higher carbs when Cooper doesn’t need them, I’ve looked around for stuff I was ok buying as part of her diet too. There’s several Weruvas in the medium carb range, but most combine Tuna with another protein (at least one is tuna and turkey). I’ve also been buying a Weruva 8-9% that’s lamb, which comes in handy compared to the Merrick @4%.
Even if those aren’t ok proteins for him, you might check the food chart and see if anything in your preferred brands, or proteins, would fit as a higher option? Even if you found one food higher than his current ones, it might be nice to know that’s an option for you to use.
