When switching foods, it is very important to do it correctly. When cats have been used to one food, and when suddenly exposed to a new food, their enzymes are not used to it, often causing diarrhea and vomiting. You have to use both old and new food, slowly increasing the proportions of the new food.

I'm really surprised. I've had all my healthy cats on SD since they were kittens. One in particular loved it so much, he would inhale it. We had him on W/D. He was a big cat, a domestic orange & white kitty - he was almost 4 ft long from the tip of his paw to the end on his tail (not stretched, just when he laid down). He weighed 30 lbs, and lived to be 15 1/2 yrs. My 15 year old dachshund has been on SD since 8 weeks old. She is still very active & plays with my cat Kirby every chance she gets. I guess some do better on it more than others. I did try to switch her food to Nutro when she was about 5. She got sick every night. When I put her back on SD, she was fine. Just thought I would share my experience.
