The problem with your advice on going to the vet for advice on a therapeutic diet is that they’re mostly, if not all, Big Ag and Big Pharma shills. They don’t bother with science. They drink the industry Kool-Aid and shove high oxalate, grain-laden diets on obligate carnivores, while telling us that CATS SHOULDN’T BE EATING MEAT. I’m literally speaking from recent experience.
If anyone here ever reads my comment and wants real advice on how to feed a cat, talk to a cat handler at a zoo or big cat sanctuary. They actually know what cats are, and what their natural diets should be. I researched that, and adapted it to the caloric needs of my 10 lb. indoor boys. ❤
Can anyone lend some advice? My cats ears never had issues but the last year he’s been getting really bad yeast buildup, we switched him to a all urinary tract food after he had a bad UTI but idk what food will help his gut health. I can’t afford the 700$ vet visit for another ear cleaning plus allergy testing. Please anyone 😔 my cats my best friend and just falling on hard times to pay for a vet visit
I feed my kitty blue buffalo chicken grain free food but it does have other carbs like sweet potato, real potatoes, tapioca and peas in it. The last time I took her to a vet for a wellness exam the vet said that the dry was fine but I should feed her some wet as well. The problem is I can’t find a wet food she won’t just stick her nose up at, 😹😹😹. Right now I’ve been giving her creamy treats to make sure she gets some more hydration since cats get a bulk of their liquid through the prey they catch. Also I’m concerned about the amount of taurine in cat food, should I be feeding her a taurine supplement as well?
Bottom Line: Learn how to read the labels and the ‘clever wording’ they use to get around things and deceive people.
This vet is not worth your intelligence.. she is just loyally regurgitating the words of the corporations that financially support veterinary schools and her overpriced clinic.. and MAKE veterinarians sell their carbohydrate chicken byproduct meal ( slaughterhouse sludge) cat foods in their clinics… using copper sulfate ( poison ) as the copper source… read the ingredients. MUCH SHAME for those who only pretend to care about your pets and are just in it for the BIG MONEY. Sadly if a veterinarian was to go out on their own and decide to sell actually nutritious and beneficial food for your cat in their clinics, such as an obligate carnivore protein rich food or God forbid professionally prepared RAW FOOD in their clinics… they would probably lose their license to operate… the veterinary industry has become a large mega corporation with many locally owned clinics being bought up by entities where profit matters more than your beloved pets health… with their ideology being… you can’t make any profit from treating healthy pets..
