    Fish- protein 143, fat=54grams, carbs=15grams, ash=18.5%

    Chicken
    Protein=161 grams
    Fat=40 grams
    Carbs=29 grams
    Ash=21.6%
    Phosphorus=2.2

    Here's a closer look at Nom Nom Now's numbers.

    It says carbs is at 10% and Baxter has been on Fancy Feast Classic since he was diagnosed. His numbers have gone up a little, but we also have changed his Lantus dosage from 1.5 to 2 units.

    He LOVES it.
    Usually after finishing his FF he would run to his sister's plate to finish her leftovers, but he actually feels full after NNW.

    Yeah it's actually the nutrient mix, mixed with the FAT that makes the rise - when I called them on the phone last week, that's how it was explained to me. I split mine, between my 2 cats - so a meal for 1, was a meal for 2 - and I only did it at lunch. The BG rise wasn't as steep, but it still DID go up. It's why I chose not to reorder, but for awhile there, it did my babies good I think. I haven't crossed them off my list, but it's not something I'd get a lot of, all the time.

    If you have 2 or more cats, split/cut it for lunch with added water - if you have 1 cat, cut it - mix 1/4 with regular canned. It DOES fill them up, and it is hella tasty to them. Just watch their digestion - I don't know why but Fena got looser stool from it with some solids, and Mao had to make multiple trips to the box, not all successful - so start SMALL. Or cut, like I suggested. I tried both the chicken and the fish - both were a hit, taste wise.

    Texture, you might have to play with, as I did with Fena - Mao liked it fine as is, even split.

    TIPS - cold days, this is a GOD SEND. If it's cold, it goes down better. Hotter, it doesn't. The more protein, the more dense the food that way and the colder it is - the better. The hotter, NO. So if you're in an area where it get cold, look into this, at least for winter - it's good stuff, but you do have to watch BG closer.

    Add HOT WATER to the food, not luke warm or cold - HOT, like from a kettle. Wait till it steams, not boils.

    Depending on your kitties mouth you might need to help them - bust up chunks, cut pieces, etc. so do that, definitely!
