? Name of canned food?

Hi everybody I was wondering what the name of the canned food was that we can buy at a Fred Meyer or Walmart even if it's just temporary for two or three meals until I can go to my semi-local animal health food store? I'm just learning how to use threads and comments and all of that. My kitty Pooter was diagnosed day before yesterday n yesterday I learned how to give him a shot from his new veterinarian who has a lot of knowledge with diabetes.this morning is when I'm going to give him a shot all by myself, I'm pretty terrified of needles but I'm going to get over my fear for my beloved pooter. He is supposed to take Lantus 2 units twice daily. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and helping everyone so much.

 

Walmart brand of cat food is called Special Kitty

 

I just got back lol! I bought FF savory salmon feast classic. 3 oz cans. Is that ok?

 

Yes, Fancy Feast Classics & Friskies Pates are both fine.

 

Oh I'm so thankful for all of you! I'm so brand new to this. I just gave him his first shot alone and it wasn't nearly as bad as I was imagining! Being with the vet was one thing but doing it alone is another (or so I thought)

 

Ty so much! Do I reply to everyone individually or do I just keep replying to the last person who responded. I don't want to make this annoying to people?

Most of us feed fancy feast classic or Friskies pate. . Congratulations on your first of many shots. Next trip to Walmart pick up a glucose meter.

 

Here's the food chart a lot of us use: http://catinfo.org/docs/CatFoodProteinFatCarbPhosphorusChart.pdf
Don't pick up the Friskies Indoor formulas though , even their pate is higher carb.

If you could setup your Signature, would be super helpful too . And when you start home testing, the spreadsheet template those of us who home test use, just need Google account: http://www.felinediabetes.com/FDMB/threads/fdmb-spreadsheet-instructions.130337/

I usually try to bombard new members with this on their introduction threads but I don't recall seeing you there so I did it here

 

Ive use friskies pates and ff classics also. evo wet food is good too. ive recently started to use pro plan true nature and prime plus,all should be safe. read the provided food charts,they are very helpful,make a list and go to store and try safe brands. home test too,i sure didnt want to home test but its worth it very much,its a pain at first but you and your cat will get used to it.
