Question about wet food recs

[willahott]

Hello,
My diabetic cat has been eating Fancy Feast pate since his diagnosis a year ago. I have two other cats that are not diabetic, but also eat FF. Lately, I think they are starting to get bored (I’ve tried different flavors, etc). I would like to switch up their food just for a bit (as long as my diabetic cat’s numbers are good while doing so).
Any wet food recommendations? Thanks in advance!

I do not know what country you're, but if you are in the US, below is a Drs Food list link, there are many brands to choose from, the third column contains the amount of carbs, for your diabetic cat, I am sure you are aware that they should consume a diet between 0-10 %, and yes wet food, also if you are not in the US let us know and we can send you the correct list of the country you're in from FF I can suggest, the Chunky's or Flakes in low carbs

FOOD CHART CHECK CARBS/ FF

There are lots of low carb canned foods FF isn't the only one. It's just the most often suggested one because it's a brand everyone knows. What other brands to feed depends on what your cats like and what you can afford and can find in the local stores. No point in feeding an expensive brand like Rawz that is only sold at independent pet stores and only a few approved online sites (Amazon is not one even though you can find the food there at a marked up price).

Check the food chart in the post above. It's a little old so use it as a general guide and double check ingredients before you buy as companies often change formulas without any notice. Whatever food that has 10% or less carbs is ideal for your diabetic. The non-diabetics can eat anything but it probably makes sense to feed them the same food as the diabetic. You can feed them higher carb food, just keep the diabetic cat away from it and take away any leftovers promptly.
