Re: Shortcut food list- all less than 10%

That is so kind of you! It makes it so much easier than going thru list after list trying to find the low carb ones.

From all us newbee's.....thank you!

Re: Shortcut food list- all less than 10%

Bumping this with a question:
I think I'm comparing to the most updated list on catinfo.org, but I thought most of the Friskies Classic Pate flavors were under 10% carbs as well (all but the Mixed Grill which is 11%). Is there a reason they aren't on this list? Or have I not had enough coffee this morning and just missed something?

Thanks in advance.
 
Re: Shortcut food list- all less than 10%

Yes. There are others... this started out as my own personal shopping list for Shadow ... later on I shared it
because it's nice to have a printable list that eliminates all the higher carb ones.
It can get confusing to pick the right ones without a list in front of you...

I mostly omitted the seafood varieties simply because Dr. Pierson recommends feeding poultry more than any
other meat and also because the seafood used in pet food is basically what is left over on the docks ...
it's not good enough for human consumption....
so all those varieties that have fish in them ..I try to avoid .. i'd rather open a can of human tuna and add it to the poultry
or buy the fancy feast appetizers and mix them in her canned food.... ( it's a much better color )

I'll work on updating the list again....

it probably should just be all the 8% or lower listings.....
 
Re: Shortcut food list- all less than 10%

Thank you Rhiannon for posting this. We have pancreatitis and kidney disease so decided to go with the Cowboy Cokout and Grammy's Pot Pie for Priss. Oddly enough she won't touch the seafood types of cat foods, I guess that's for the best.
 
Okay just to clarify, ANY of the cat foods on this list are totally 100% okay to feed a diabetic cat? I just want to make absolutely sure
 
Yes, assuming nothing else is going on.

Note that some cats may be more sensitive to carb effects than others. By tracking the response to various carb levels, you'll learn if that is true for your cat.
 
Thank you!!! I was just starting to wonder about what to do next due to kidney issues- this is so easy to read! I have a shopping list now :-)
