9/28 Feeding Kibble

Unfortunately, many veterinarians recommend prescription diets for diabetic cats that are wholly inappropriate. As cat nutrition expert Dr. Lisa Pierson points out.
Cats are obligate carnivores and are not designed by nature to consume a high-carbohydrate diet or one that is water-depleted (dry kibble)."
There are two general guidelines for selecting the best diet for cats with diabetes, and to prevent the disease in a healthy cat:

• Avoid dry food (kibble), including treats
  
  • Calories from carbohydrates should be less than 10 percent of the total calories consumed each day

The carbohydrate content of commercial cat food won’t be found on the package label.
Pet food companies don't want to reveal this info because they recognize nutrition-savvy pet parents would be stunned to learn just how much cheap, unnecessary filler (starch) is added to pet foods to keep costs low.
