jrkob, now you're confusing me....sorry for confusion on my part, and I am not stressed ( got enough stress coming from potentially fostering a dog this week and not sure how it will turn out) . What I meant was, just give good quality cat food. I give mine one tin of Almo Nature or Kakato or Applaws Chicken Breast or Chicken and Pumpkin ( he cannot eat seafood), plus a dessert spoonful of dry food during the day, and then a half tin of wet food mixed with a spoonful of dry in the evening. This should fill up your cat's tummy and hydrate. Plenty of water, too. I looked up cat food brands online but forget the website that informed me of ingredients and which was the best for my cat. To be honest, with the result, I was not surprised.
