Well, with Drizzle's first birthday rapidly aproaching and Boo well over a year old, we decided it was time to begin the switch from "Kitten" food to "Cat" food. It has not gone well...
They say on the bag that due to to composition and ingriedants to give them smaller portions. OK, fine, we do that. Well poor Mr. Drizzle has gotten sick and thrown up twice now from this new (dry) food, likely from over-eating as he's used to eating one specific portion and now, with that unavailable, he eats up Boo's as well. The result being his previously standard portion is "too much" with this new food, which contains rice which expands.
Needless to say we've returned to the "kitten" food for the moment. Any advice/ideas? How long can they stay on "kitten" food? How do we go about switching again without similar problems? Drizzle's only been sick twice (this the second time) so he get's very scared when it happens. Poor lil guy. We where up at 4 am snuggling him.
