Re: Nutro Max tainted...
I went Saturday and bought some cans of Wellness and Evangers for my cats. Of course they wouldn't eat the stuff. I want to feed them better foods but they won't eat it. Any ideas?

Re: Nutro Max tainted...
Mix in high fat stuff--chicken fat, butter etc. Then decrease and work from there. The Wellness kitten formula is a good ground breaker. I have the same problem. Dixie and I are experimenting with home made and better processed foods. Don't forget to explain to your little friends why their diet is changing. They may not understand and think you are mad at them. If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow man.

Re: Nutro Max tainted...
Yes they do. To make matter worst my Katie is diabetic so I have to feed her a low carb. food. She likes Fancy Feast but I am still nervous feeding it to her. Although, none of my crew have acted like they are sick (fingers crossed). I will try the Felidae and Artemis and see if they will eat it. I told my husband that I couln't believe they wouldn't eat this food that is suppose to be so much better than the ones you buy at the grocery store. I drove 45 minutes to get this food for them and they just snubbed their little noses at it. Thanks for the help.

Re: Nutro Max tainted...
I am always surprised when I hear people say this. My guys devour Felidae the same as anything else. I did get some donated Felidae Platinum at one time, and while they were not quite as thrilled, they did eat it with no complaints. Felidae is a lot better than the food at the grocery store, but if they will not eat it it does little good! On 4/11/07, cindy reasoner [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes they do.

Re: Nutro Max tainted...
Does anyone have the ingredients list for the varieties of Nutro Max that were third party tested?

Re: Nutro Max tainted...
www.Petfooddirect.com lists the ingredients. There is wheat gluten in the California Chicken Supreme. I did not check the others. I suspect it will be 9 life times before Dixie sees grain again.

Re: Nutro Max tainted...
I'd love to have the turkey recipe. Dixie is getting lots of various (chicken, turkey, mackerel, beef) meats + Transfer Factor Feline Complete + Barley Cat. Short term this is fine but I need to make sure her diet is balanced.

Does the kitten food have wheat gluten in it? I have a homemade goat's milk kitten formula I've used with great success for bottle babies. I also feed Gypsy, my IBD girl a homemade turkey diet. If you'd like either recipe, let me know and I'll send them to you off list. I'm looking forward to MC's homemade chat list transcript, (like Belinda, I meant to tune in and missed it).
