what natural dry food do you recommend for sensitive tummy? i'm using hills i/d right now but i don't think it's making any difference, my vet doesn't have much to say about food, whatever i say to her from what i learn here she's agrees.

Does your cat have inflammatory bowel disease? Symptoms of this disease include vomiting and/or diarrhea. One of the diets reccommended is a food that does not contain common pet food ingredients but instead contains a single protein and a single carbohydrate source your cat has never had before such as Rabbit and Pea, Venizon and Pea, or Duck and Pea, but be sure to discuss this with your vet first.
Pet foods commonly have ingredients that cats are not naturally meant to eat and I think some cats develop adverse reactions to them. Some cats are allergic to chicken and that's why these diets were developed. My cat Spotty was diagnosed with IBD but I don't believe he is allergic to chicken and neither does my vet. But I personally wonder about all those ingredients in cat foods such as corn meal, corn gluten, soy, flours etc. Do you ever wonder if that stuff is really healthy in large quantities for an obligate carnivore? Could it be doing something to your cat's stomach? |

he wasn't diagnosed with IBD nor vomiting, i had tried several dry foods, from iams, wellness, evo and the last one nutro, off and on good poop and soft poop, i asked the vet if it's a good idea to put him on hills i/d and she agreed, he's fine on his poop now but every once in a while he has soft poop, i honestly believe that he may not need to be on hill i/d so i'm trying to find the right natural food for him.
