Is wet food good for your cat?

No, I only feed them dry. Wet food is a waste of money and not needed nutritionally

it should be incorperated as part of a regular diet but most of their food should come from dry food, with wet food added 2-3 times a week

Traci said exactly what I was going to say!!! LOL

You did say that you were trying to help them loose weight as they were a bit overweight to begin with. Maybe lilo just lost it faster than rory. You are not use to them being thin and maybe that is what is "off" instead of a real underlying disease. (not saying there is or isnt anything wrong but they were on a diet and I guess she did loose some weight)

Her loosing weight has helped her regain her agility so yes she will be more active. Make sure he has plenty of toys to play with since you mentioned a jungle gym i'd say they had a good place to have lots of fun! :wink:

You have every right to feel you were being attacked, from what you said we assumed that you were doing this on your own. We tend to get right down to the nitty gritty here and are bold. Me personally i am just a hyper woman and well catching me on a good or bad day means everything in what i say. Of course knowing the history helps us support what you need and we can then advise properly.

How is Rory getting sick when you change foods ? Is it diarrhea, vomiting, both? I believe her diet could be of a better quality food, especially if she has a sensitive tummy:( But if she is overweight and if you see her loosing weight on this particular food and she is overwise healthy(vet states she is) then i would not change her diet right now. To many stresses can make her not loose more weight.

What type of cats are they(domestic short hairs? pURE?) and what are both their weights.

Great job on the litter pan. Many have forgotten to put one in house when the cats always go outside. It automaticially makes me think WOW because I am always one to go potty ! :oops: :wink: LOL

Also how is their water intake?
Almost 7 years in remission from Graves disease and no meds!
