Need help and advice regarding diet for these two food thieves
Tigger my 15 year old that's been on Lantus 2units for a long time, eats Fancy feast pate with occasional flaked, has always been free fed,sugars are pretty stable, occasionally 350+ when he gets into the dog food. His last fructosamine 394.
Slasher our new kitty, adopted from my vet, had been there 2 months after owner relinquished do to high medical bills. He had UTI, blood and bacteria in urine that was not properly treated, developed acute kidney disease/failure, feel that his elevated kidney chemicals were secondary to the urinary issures. After intensive treatment his kidney function is now normal, I'm sorry I do not have all of his labs yet.
The vet wants him on KD wet and supplemented with CK dry.
If I try to feed FD cat 2 times a day he's sugars will drop (65), It is almost impossible to keep either out of the others food. If I I put Slasher in another room he cries most of the night. Both are on the thin side. I want all involved to be happy and healthy and me to remain sane. The dog has been a free feeder on dry, I have been putting his up and trying to keep both cats out of it (partial success)
Is anyone aware of a food that would work for both. Wysong Canned is the best compromise I can find.

I have read this does not have all the vitamins and mineral they need. Anyone familiar with supplements?
Does anyone have any suggestions or insight what I can do for these two
Thanks for all the info I have obtained from this site in the past several years
