He is a regular kitty and we use World's Best Litter, which is pretty awesome for its clumping qualities. I spray deodorizer that is supposed to "kill" any odors. He basically eliminates his weight in solid waste every day. On Wed, Feb 17, 2016 at 7:18 PM, Peter Frederick via Mercedes <

I have fed Iams or Science diet for a long, long time. Cats are obligate carnivores, the more meat and "byproducts" -- guts and trimmings, mostly -- there is is the food the better. They cannot digest corn or rice meal very well, and if those things are a major ingredient, they will have
