Have you tried different brands? Also, did you make the transition gradually? Good luck. Phil OK, but is it true about that other part, that tuna makes cats throw up? (even tuna catfood? not tuna flavoured catfood, but actual tuna catfood) |

It's too broad a generalisation to say it's the best food for all cats. It's the best for some, maybe most -- but not all. Individual metabolisms are too variable to make such blanket statements. As I said, moist food is the *best* food for cats... I don't mind if you don't agree with me... |

(even tuna catfood? not tuna flavoured catfood, but actual tuna catfood) No! ...unless the cat has a food aversion or allergy to fish or tuna... What kind of wet food do you like, Phil? Because my cats get wet food (Iams, Purina, Friskies, some fish but lately they seem to like chicken best) and although they love it and beg for it probably one out of three feedings somebody throws up a LOT of cat food. Both are well vetted, healthy cats, both short-haired, medicated for hairballs, brushed regularly. They rarely hurl dry food. Is it the kind I am feeding? When I asked the vet, he said "Aww. Poor little things. They want it but it is too rich for them." He said they eat it too fast. I now put out small amounts, but it has not seemed to help. |
