changing food question
Hi All
I started to feed my kitten the Wellness brand food today, and now he has some very nasty diarrhea! Is this normal when changing foods? I only added a small amount to his normal food witch is the Iams brand dry food. Is this the right way to change food, or should I just throw out the old food? I haven't tried to give him any of the canned food yet, but I did buy a few cans for him to try out. It isn't specifically made for kittens, is that ok? I didn't see a kitten canned food available on the website. Thanks Justin
