Susan, I give SD C/D to all my cats since one of them needs it to prevent crystals forming in his urine. It is impossible to feed them separately. Since he started on it, he hasn't had any problems.
What would you suggest I use instead? It's expensive food, and I know there has to be something better out there, but I absolutely don't have time right now to cook for the cats. Well, maybe I have time, but I think the initial time and cost of getting everything they need together in one meal would be tough for me--lots of research needed on my part before I attempt cooking for them. But, I've had my doubts as to the quality of Science Diet. I just don't know what else to do to help Bandit's urine problem.

Also, what I mean by high quality diet is a high protein, no grains if you can. Nothing you can buy at Walmart will qualify for this. Cats are obligate carnivores and do not process grains at all. http://www.homevet.com/petcare/feedingyourcat.html Before I found this group, I was feeding Science Diet to my furbabies. I did not know their little bodies don't process grains. Now I feed Innova Evo, a food I buy usually online, because it's cheaper. I can find it at about 3 or 4 places in Dallas. Can't get it at Petsmart, etc. :) Wendy "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed citizens can change the world - indeed it is the only thing that ever has!" ~~~ Margaret Meade ~~~
