but thats just personal choice.

can i jst say thanx everyone for your opinions and i didnt mean to start some war.
at the end of the day you only know from experience Sheldon is fine with dry but im not gonna risk it i think its all wet food for him for the rest of his life and little treats everyday.

thanx again

on the note of treats, I thought i would not be able to give Syd treats again - but I found some nice ones in PAH, albeit expensive - they are pure white fish, dried into cubes. So i gave Syd and Cass some and they LOVED them - i soaked Syd's ones in some water (he doesnt like drinking, despite a water fountain and bowls around the house so i hide water in his food as much as poss)

I know that the treats are expensive (well, relatively) but he was SO happy to have something else. i know our vet wont approve - she said if we feed him something he likes (he tolerates RC Urinary S/O wet), then he wont eat his RC diet. I struggle with this though - if he doesnt really like it, but does eat it because he trusts us and is a good lad, then why shouldnt i give him these? She did say they would also unbalance his PH which is more of a concern to me

but going back to my point - i am pleased there are treats out there which are not dry food. I dont want a debate with anyone but my personal experience has been that our 2 love their diet and dont seem to miss dry at all

it is hard findin nice cats treats. altho syd cant eat dried treats i found some great one at pah sheldon goes crazy for them. aldi do a nice chew aswell which i break up and give in little bits.

i think syd needs rewardin for bein a good boy once in a while isnt gonna do much harm. i wonder if theres any special treats for when it comes to medical problems. like diabetic chocolate. think that has to be researched

good idea - i have had him wrapped in bubble wrap (well, not literally) since we found out about his condition but have been sure not to show it as that would stress him and make his condition worse - so giving him a few treats here and there must only do him good
