I hope the new food works. What I had to do with Kitty was
eliminate every common food that might cause allergies, especially
grains and poultry then gradually add them back in foods with the
fewest preservatives possible. It was difficult because most cat
foods contain these, even the fish flavored ones. To make things
even worse she liked kibble and almost all kibble (with the
exception of some veterinarian exclusionary diets which she hated)
contain common allergians. I found that Fast Track for Felines
worked as well or better that vet bought probiotics and was
considerably less expensive,
Good luck to you and your little ones.

I did get them on better food this week, not been enough days yet
to tell if it will help or not. he is also on his third dose of
probiotics now, so hopefully that will kick in soon. I'm not going
to medicate the wrist with anything for now. I really think it may
be OK, and he is just a big baby, and twisted it wrong jumping. He
is SUCH a big baby, just LOVES to be held and petted. I just wish
he didn't feel the need to spray everything and his diarrhea would
clear up now! Some feliway might help with the spraying, but my
funds are SO low... it's just not a priority right now. Getting the
intact female he was living with spayed might help that too, come
to think of it.

Changing Kitty's diet stopped an extremely nasty diarrhea. She had
major food allergies (still not sure what to). She is on EVO now.
Apple Pectin ( a pinch or so) in her food helped some before we
figured out the food allergy thing. Specialists thought she had
cancer of the pancreas and was having difficulty digesting fats. I
took a lot of the fats away from her to help calm things down.
Obviously the cancer diagnosis didn't fit.
Arnica might help with the sprained wrist.
Just ideas on things that have worked for me. Good luck.
