I would really, really recommend this food

[JMSA]

I hope this suggestion helps someone, especially if you have a cat with runny stools. We’ve had our 1 year old rescue cat for a few months now. We obviously kept her on the same food to begin with, but very shortly after coming to us, I had a hellish time with diarrhoea (hers, not mine!). She was pooing in random places, like the dog’s food bowl, the kitchen sink, my bed. She would yowl as she licked herself afterwards. It was just awful and I regretted taking her on. Then I gradually introduced Scrumbles dry food (the sensitive version). It has been night and day. Once she was off the Burgess, her poos were like hard little cigars within days.
Just putting that out there. And I work in Education - no affiliation whatsoever with Scrumbles 😄 I found something that worked - for us, anyway - and am finally enjoying having her 💕

Ohhh mine refused to touch either the wet or dry! They are funny things aren’t they

Yes, cats are such contrarians 🤣
Fortunately Winnie loves it.

I use this one too, just the normal (not sensitive) my cat loves it too. The jelly and the gravy. Good that your cat is better now 🐈‍⬛😻

Thank you. I’m tempted to move her on to normal Scrumbles, as it’s more easily available. I’m worried about rocking the boat though!

@JMSA personally I would stick with the sensitive as you have a happy kitty and no more messy accidents ! I’m assuming you have to order from zooplus or something, I’ve not seen sensitive in the shops.

I had just come on here to as a question about foods to try for a cat with diarrhoea! Ours is 14 and for the last week or two has had an upset stomach and has been depositing little splodges of poo around the house! Took her to the vet who said there didn’t seem to be any infection, blockage or lumps and she seems fine-gave her an antibiotic jab just in case-said no food for 24h, two small meals for two days but doesn’t seem to be making too much of a difference. She’s doing some deadly farts and constantly licking at herself.

They eat Felix-good as it looks which they really like, and I’ve tried the Purina furball biscuits based on a recommendation here last year (she doesn’t love these) but maybe I’ll try what you’ve suggested?! Seems odd for the diarrhoea to suddenly start!

Felix definitely = stinky poos! There's a whole FB group of cat owners sure it has made their cats ill. It certainly doesn't agree with one of my cats and gives him awful upset stomach and weight loss.

Yup Felix definitely=poos from hell and unfortunately it's the devil's own job to wean them off it.My Marvin would walk through fire for a bowl of AGAIL but is largely indifferent to every other wet food I have tried him on. The one exception is Petit Gourmet which he quite likes and I can use as a topper to smuggle in some bites of better quality food. I'm having some success with a single protein Kangaroo product from Zooplus at the moment which gives him neat little cigars.

My Persians tried it but the kibbles were too small and they couldn’t pick them up.

@Puppylucky i have never heard the saying neat little cigars but that truly sums it up 💩💩❤️

Is this the thread?

We used Royal Canin hairball as she wouldn't eat the Purina hairball (but of course loves the Purina blue bag normal biscuits). It seems to have reset her digestion system and she is now off the hairball ones, we did a third hairball to two thirds normal biscuits as she refused hairball only. She also hates Scrumbles but I've never seen the sensitive ones in shops.

Thank you for the recommendation and I love the name Winnie! Our boy is on a pro plan diet but gets a bit loose occasionally. I’ll look out for this.
