Pro Plan Extra Care

I'm really hesitant to start a thread about cat food, given our history on this
group that topic, but here goes anyway. :-)
Yoda throws up dry food. Any dry food I've ever brought, comes back up
practically undigested. I never tried to find out why, I just keep him on
canned food because he has no problem with it. But dry is the only food Boots
will eat well, so occasionally Yoda gets into it. And throws up.
I bought a sample size jug of Pro Plan Extra Care. It touts no corn, no wheat,
no preservatives and such. I caught him snarfing down her food, but noticed he
didn't throw up. Tried it again, and he still didn't throw up.
This is really peculiar. I am curious whether all this time the vomiting is
from a corn or wheat allergy, or some preservative. . Doesn't really make any
difference, because I"m still not going to start feeding him dry food on
purpose, but I was just curious.

Woops. I bet you're scratching your heads over that one. I'm sorry, my bad. I
thought I was posting to another group, one that sometimes gets into heated
debates over which cat food is best.
But I'd still love to hear your thoughts. Thanks.

I say if he eats it without barfing, don't totally change his diet but go
ahead and let him snag some of the dry if he wants to

a lot of cats have food allergies and putting them on a sensitive stomach or
reduced allergen prescription food (z/d in science diet)

It also might have something to do with the size of the kibble. A lot of
kibble is just the right size to eat with out chewing, and so when the cat
drinks some water, the food expands, thus making them fuller than he was
originally, and they hurl. It could be that this kibble is either big
enough so he chews it, or small enough so it doesn't expand as much.
