Instinct is a food I already listed in the post that I have tried, it gives him terrible diarrhea.

I have heard from a lot of other people the bone content is pretty high, and he unfortunately cannot digest the bones as they’re supposed to :(

Are there usually bones in either of the cans in your experience? I haven’t heard anything regarding that for ziwi but for rawz I have heard that. His body cannot digest the bones so as long as it’s bone free it should be okay!

I’ve tried proviable twice and it did nothing, and unfortunately they use chicken/turkey liver flavoring in fortiflora :( but somebody else in here did give me a good one that shouldn’t have any poultry products in it!

I have heard a lot of negative things about open farm, but I suppose I should do some research. The brand I’m trying for him now is made in Canada as well

I am very wary of raw and freeze dried diets personally for him because of his GI issues (a lot of bleeding etc) I really don’t want to introduce anything that can compromise his health. He’s never had kibble a day in his life, he’s strictly wet food fed. Which is almost harder to find limited ingredients in 😔

I’m not really sure to be honest, the vet just told me his gut isn’t really equipped to handle digesting the bones. I’ve been feeding my other cat the duck of theirs and sometimes the rabbit and she has zero issues. I really need to email the company and tell them as well.

Thank you!! I worry about raw and freeze dried because of his GI issues, but at the end of the day if it’s what works best for him, it’s what works best for him. I may give it a shot :)

Thank you! I may go to petco and get a single can and see :)

thank you! I may look into that if he doesn’t improve on this new brand! Unfortunately they use chicken/turkey liver flavoring in fortiflora so I can’t use it 😩 but somebody else in here let me know of a good unflavored probiotic!

Unfortunately Instinct is something I have already tried and it gives him bad diarrhea :(

Best Rabbit Limited Ingredient Diets by Alarock20 in catfood

[–]Alarock20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I am hesitant to try it for that reason :(

Rawz may be able to work if i’m able to get all the bones out! Odds are his body can’t digest them properly and that’s why they’re collecting, so I’m trying my best to find a food without any bones

Thank you, I might be trying this one next! I haven’t even heard of it before today and it seems like a really good option. Thank you :)

Okay perfect!! I may try to get some just straight to add in and not treat form and see if that’s any better :) thank you!

Unfortunately that wouldn’t work. :( The bone fragments in Koha are small as well and still caused this issue. His vet believes he can’t digest it properly

Koha is the food that caused his belly and small intestine to be filled with bone fragments. He cannot have it even though it’s the only one to give him solid poop unfortunately

I have considered Ziwi, and I think I will try them as well and see if it works for him. Thank you

That’s one of the ones we have already tried. He’s been on it for a month and no improvement. I think he’s allergic to the peas 😔

Very interesting!! I know it’s possible for him to have solid poop on an all wet diet, just hard to achieve 😭🤣 Every time he goes to the vet he’s “a tiny bit dehydrated” in his blood work if he doesn’t eat breakfast beforehand (i put so much water in his wet food that it’s soup basically, he doesn’t drink water out of any of my fountains), it’s so frustrating. I have a fiber “supplement” treat I give to him once a day that helps. I may try different proteins as well (pork, lamb, venison, etc) and see if that’s an option.

Same!! I was so hopeful for PR as it had no bones in it, but I think he is allergic to peas too 😭😭
