Question
My cat has kidney disease and I had him on Royal Canin pouches. They just changed the cat food and my cat hates it and won't eat it.  I tried Hills and purina and he throws them up.  Is there a good cat food (canned) out there that I can feed him.  I don't care if it is the one for kidney problems, i am at a loss what to do.  thanx

Hi Pat, Sorry for the delay in answering your question as I have been very ill.
Ok, the only other choice you have is home-cooking for your cat.  
VERY easy to do and your cat or cats will LOVE it.  
You can put any cat on this recipe.  

NEXT -

Diet for the Cat with Kidney Problems


4 parts carbohydrate:   Pureed barley flakes and /or baby food "creamed corn"
( more carbs than meat, for cats with UTI and kidney problems )

****Other cats, in the house , can have a little "more" protein in the diet.


2 parts protein:   Lightly broiled chicken or beef or  you can also use baby food chicken.

( Optional )
1 part vegetable:
vegetable juice-carrots,  cooked zucchini, and alfalfa sprouts are best for cats - Make sure zucchini is cut up very small.
Cats do seem to like alfalfa sprouts....


2 teaspoons soft butter

Cook at 350 for 15-20 minutes .
Feed 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup  (1-2 x) per day-
Just watch your cat and see how he does on 1/2 cup 2 x per day.  If he seems like he needs more then give him 3/4 cup 2 x per day.

AS for treats - look for some Natural Holistic treats - just a few per day-
SEE if you can find some that are lower if fat, if possible.

Also,
NuVET supplement is needed to balance out the recipe and home-cooking:

Give 1/2 teaspoon in the morning and 1/2 teaspoon in the evening.
PLEASE call in and talk to the ladies at NuVET -
1-800-474-7044
 They can explain the 60 day money back guarantee and the 15% off discount program.  ( use order code 81098 for the discount)
Tell them you are working with Pet nurse Marie on home-cooking for your cat.
You can mix the NuVET into some VERY low fat small curd cottage cheese or some low fat yogurt.
( or just use the home-cooking cat food and mix in...)
Some cats are very smart and that's why we break up the 1 teaspoon into 1/2 teaspoons .... So they don't see the vitamins...
You can see the NuVET Feline Formula here: ( call in to order)

JUST like kids!
( oh, NuVET gives you a TASTE guarantee...
MOST cats will eat the NuVET no Problem....)
