Question
QUESTION: Hi! I have a Fel-v+ kitty, who is about 2 years old (diagnosed at 1yr).. I am just wondering what food would be good for him? He is a very healthy kitty. =) Also, i have been feeding him as much food as he wants (keeping it full), and i wanted to switch to a regulated schedule. How much dry food should i feed him and how many times a day? He is 12 pounds. Thank you so much, Jessica

ANSWER: Hi Jessica -

What are you feeding ?  What brand ?

Any Supplements....
Also, is your cat taking any medications?

QUESTION: Hi! I am feeding The Goodlife Recipe right now (a cheaper brand, but i have not started incorporating Iams Cat food into his diet. I hope to switch to this food if it is an ok food for him. =) He is not on any medication of supplements, should he be? Thanks. Jessica

Answer
Yes, to build this cat kid's immune system I would place him on an oil and vitamin supplement:
1.  give you baby some Salmon oil / 1 teaspoon per day - mixed into his food.... PURE salmon oil can be found in some pet stores or ON-line ...
2.  NuVET plus for felines - this is a powder / Just give 1/2 a teaspoon per day - mixed into the cat food.
EXCELLENT for the Immune system - MUCH needed with a virus like you mentioned.
3.  Cat food / I would use Innova EVO or Wellness for cats: get the dry and wet food... Give dry food and 2 teaspoons of wet food ontop of the dry.  ( feed 2 x per day - small meals)

Ok, so OIL, NuVET Feline and some Quality Holistic food...
