Yep, I think she is going to be the ultimate diet controlled diabetic. No even mildly higher carb food, ever. I was wondering if, once you can cut way back on strips and no more insulin, the budget would stretch to wet low carb for everyone? I am thinking it would make your life so much easier not to isolate them and worry about her getting into their food.
 
It doesn't seem like Friskies has as many flavor options. We bought a box but half of it was mixed grill which I think is too high for our cat . What exact ones do you buy, BJ? We have switched all of them over to we're but we have to separate on mixed grill days
 
Mainly, I buy the Turkey and Giblets. Sometimes I get the poultry platter. I keep it consistent so the food is boring enough they only eat if they need to do so. Occasionally, I'll do something like Forti Flora or Stella and Chewey's freeze dried to treat them.

If I call ahead to WalMart, they'll pull as many cases as I need and have them waiting at Customer Service for me - no getting on the floor to see if a case is hidden in the back of the bottom shelf!
 
I feed turkey & giblets, poultry platter, liver & chickn, and chicken & tuna. All all 6-7% carbs. Mixed grill is 8%; but it made one of the boys sick. I think most of the pates are 7 or less. I buy by the case at PetSmart; it's usually about 50¢/can.

What's the count for RT? Been watching & rooting silently...
 
I don't know why when I started feeding canned food, I all of sudden thought the cats needed variety. Before, they ate the same dry food day in and day out. I guess it just took me awhie to figure it out! :thumbup . I'm just going to buy the turkey & giblets from now on. They seem to like it fine. I did buy some freeze dried shrimp for the testing snack. He LOVES them!

ohmygod_smile I missed the food discussion today. Bean not feeling well lately. :smile:

A while back, during the stinky-goopie-poopie phase, I came to a conclusion that the Turkey & Giblets flavor was part of the culprit for RumpelT. My civies did not like that flavor. Civies are very spoiled/particular about "flavors" they get. :roll:

Sue & BJ...I would love to be able to just free-feed wet food. But have to get RumpelT's ravenous eating under control first. She would gobble up her portion and then push civies away from their plates and scarf down their food too. Civies would just walk away and let her eat their food. :roll: :YMSIGH:

Skippersmom...I also found that Friskies doesn't have that many flavor options. And they like the fish flavors the best...but can't have them on a daily basis. Funny....mine all ate the same dry food for years too....now we cater to their flavor desires. :lol: @-)
