    Hi all, I have read thru the list here as well as some other sites but there are just so many options. What food have you found that is low carb, your cats like, and has reasonably healthy ingredients?

    I feed my cat weruva foods. She used to get fancy feast classic but she has developed kidney issues and needs foods both lower in phosphorus and carb. Weruva foods are really clean ingredients. Some look good enough to eat. Lolol

    Hi I used Weruva also the chicken licked paws looks like shredded chicken . You have to check the different flavors because not all are low carbs like the pouches for example . I also used Tiki Cat which has 0 carbs . I also research what companies ever had recalls , both of these brands were not recalled . Ahhhh I went through so many cans of different foods trying to find something she liked hang in there

    Thank you so much!! I just reread thru a bunch of those lists again this morning and have A dozen different kinds on my shopping list. I will scratch those out and get the
    Thank you so much! I have read and reread those lists. I found one that sounded perfect but I think it must be discontinued or maybe the name is just a tiny different. I will grab some Weruva, I grabbed some Friskies Pate Friday just to get her on lower carb while I did some more research.

    If you go on chewy.com they have some variety packs. I did that and took notes on which ones she liked best so when I reordered I could get a case of the ones she liked.

    Natural Balance Delectable Delights LID Chicken & Pumpkin Cup, I found a chicken and pumpkin but it does not say Delectable delights and the description was much lower in protein. I'm trying not to go below 4% carbs for fear of ketosis (she tested .6 yesterday, .4 today).

    I was looking at those, she has had anal gland issues and I know pumpkin is high in fiber. For now I went straight off your list and ordered from Petco. Press your lunch, Jeopurrdy, and Laugh out loud. They all said hydrating which she needs to flush out the ketones.
