Low Fat Dry Cat Food

2 replies

I have previously posted this on the litter tray board, but adding here too in case of any responses.

My cat has been put on a low fat diet by the vet, but she will not eat the two options suggested by the vet (Purina HA & Purina EN) She is also quite fussy and will only eat dry food. Has anyone had any success with a low fat dry food diet?

I will be discussing with the vet tomorrow but it would be good to know if anyone has good results with a particular type of food, in case he suggests that as an option.

She previously ate Orijen and Eden kibbles, and liked both.

Can you just gradually reduce the volume of the cats current food? I have a pair of fatties who I have to weigh their dry food each day as they are not self-limiting enough to manage their own intake.

I’ve also switched out some of their daily calories for a cat soup pouch. They are junk but more volume than just the dry on its own

Thanks @Grimbleton I think she needs a low fat food regardless of how much she eats as it’s to manage a medical condition, but good idea, I will check with the vet.
