Okay, so here’s what I need to say to this person: many pets have digestive disturbances when they go from an all-dry diet to a wet one. This also can happen when they go from an inferior canned product to one that has a higher protein content and real vegetables, like Weruva does. So if this is the case, it means the cat’s digestive system needs to be introduced to this superior food slowly- add it in small increments to the cats existing diet. Go slowly when changing a cat’s diet – and make sure the cat eats slowly. Sometimes cats who are giving up “kitty crack” can wolf down the wet food so quickly it comes right back up, so you need to feed very small amounts at a time (like 1 teaspoon every few minutes). As for this person’s “research,” he can rest assured that the food safety standards in the U.S. are definitely a challenge both to people and pets so choosing a food made according to the more strict EU (European) standards means you are getting a food made more safely. And it is made in a human food facility – American pet foods (except for a small handful of companies) are made from the rejected food from the human food chain and are regularly contaminated and also may contain no meat at all, only bones, beaks and feathers.

For the past two months, it has been really stressful for me in transitioning my cat to wet food. I’m pretty certain he’s lived the first 10 years of his life on kitty crack. I haven’t taken away his kibble, as I’m trying to get him to a combination diet to meet him halfway (for now). So far, I’ve transitioned him to another kibble product that I felt was the lesser of two evils. Whenever I gave him any kind of canned food (and I tried all the quality ones like Weruva, any kind w/ gravy, canned pate, pouches, etc.), he’d only lick the gravy/liquid and peck at the meat, but it was the kibble that got him all excited at mealtimes. There were days where I was stressed about whether he’ll ever eat more than a few bites of canned food and there were several times I felt like giving in. Today after I got home from work, I noticed that the new kibble I transitioned him to were left in his dish. I gave him his wet food for dinner and lo and behold for the first time since I adopted him, I found myself staring at an empty bowl! I was ecstatic that I had some kind of breakthrough and that not all hope was lost and that I’m doing the right thing. Just wanted to share w/ you and your readers that you may feel you’re wasting time, energy and money at times when transitioning a cat to wet food, but there WILL be a breakthrough at some point, just keep at it! Sorry for the long post, but just had to share!
