Best dry food for indoor cats?

Hello

I've recently started fostering & have a neutered male who the vet thinks is about three. Because he's being fostered he has to stay inside, so I'm making sure he gets as much exercise & entertainment as possible while he's here - climbing up to reach treats, jumping & chasing when we play with his toys, etc.

I've been giving him Go-Cat for indoor cats because that's what he was on when he came here, but a friend's just told me this is linked to UTIs. What would the Litter Tray experts recommend?

He has Lily’s Kitchen wet food for breakfast, which he loves. I gave him a bowl of Wellbeloved tonight but he wasn’t interested until I mixed some of the Go Cat in - I think we're going to shift gradually over the next few days.

You will have to change slowly as go cat is so full of sugar, cards and fillers it is like crack for a cat. They will need to be weaned off slowly. Bit by bit every day.

This has a guide for mixing different quantities of the old/new food each day when switching brands.

We use Royal Canin saviour exigent . It's the only dry food she will constantly eat.
She also eats wet food but very fussy with that.

Second this. Mine will literally eat nothing else (except steak)
