Thanks for all your input, my vet was the one who recommend the 'Science
plan' (dry food), I did think that the dry food may hurt the kitten being that he is teething but the vet still insisted that the 'Science plan' was the best food for him. As you can imagine I am really confused now lol. "Linda Terrell" wrote in message ...

Also it is one of the lowest in magnesium. Compare the fat content in SD to any of the others. Fat content in canned food, BTW, is very low. So don't feed it exclusively. What total and absolute rubbish. Kittens should NEVER - EVER be fed dry food. While it may be ok to give a fully grown cat some dry food, tinned food is always the best way to ensure a healthy diet for any cat. Following my Vet's advice. - canned doesn't have enough fat content. so kitten gets a mix. Canned food for kittens has all the fat they are gong to need - as well as the most important ingredient of all - water. And all my cats have eaten dry food daily over 35 years. You are very lucky - many cats are not. And they are Indoor cats, all the time. Why do you boast about being an animal abuser? Jesus still loves you Because He has to I only abuse people like you.

yes they do and this is what was worrying me. Mainly I was looking at the
general opinion of what people thought about the food. "MaryL" -OUT-THE-LITTER wrote in message ... "Graham" wrote in message ...

Not to confuse things further, but does anyone have any information as to the truth to this? Consider that the vet sells this and several other brands in the office and makes a commission. That is incentive to push a certain product. Medical doctors do it all the time (receiving gifts galore from pharmac. companies to recommend/prescribe certain meds. Just a thought. |

You have to ignore anything Brenchley has to say - he's a notorious net.kook/net.troll wannabe who is never wrong , not even when he contradicts himself, and knows everything about everything - just ask him. Search groups.google.com and the web in general on his name - he even has his own FAQ: http://badtux.net/bob-faq.html. The only place he's popular is in killfiles - he's in an awful lot of those.
