Sensitive wet kitten food recommendations?!
(TL;DR: I promise he has already been to the vet several times.
my kitten has had recurring GI issues and a very sensitive tummy, switched to prescription Royal Canin GI kitten formula & antibiotic and he is doing very well on it. Looking for affordable —preferably much cheaper than $0.75 an ounce lol— and limited ingredient/protein wet food recommendations to switch him to once his medicine/prescription diet does its thing. He was on Fancy Feast Kitten Pate prior to the switch. He loves all textures and flavors)
Little backstory, my 5.5 month old kitten has gotten bacterial overgrowth 2x now in the last 2 months. Stool samples came back clean otherwise, both in regular testing and lab testing. He was originally put on proviable and it helped clear up the GI issues, so they ran it again this time. After 3 days of it not helping (6 days total with diarrhea), I took him back and they put him on a prescription diet of Royal Canin Gastrointestinal kitten for at least a week, as well as an antibiotic. He has finally had his first not liquid stool in a week after the second day of the diet change.
My vet recommended switching his kitten food once his GI issues settle down (probably another 1.5 weeks of the prescription diet). He was on Fancy Feast Kitten Pate prior to all of this.
With all of that being said, I am looking for an affordable wet kitten food to switch him to once his antibiotics and probiotics run its course. He is genuinely the least picky cat in the entire world, so proteins/flavors don't matter. I am concerned he may have an intolerance to a random protein, so preferably brands that have limited ingredients and proteins in them so I can monitor if he has any issues to specific proteins. Also would love a brand that also that has a variety of flavors and proteins to chose from if possible!
I have been considering trying weruva again, but their cans smell so terrible and I am not sure if they are good for sensitive/GI kittens.
Thank you so much 🥰
