Marion,
I have two DMH brothers with food allergies. One is on Evo canned duck and Royal Canin dry duck and peas. When I added Nusentia’s Spectrin to his canned food, his asthma symptoms disappeared. My other one is on ZiwiPeak canned lamb (with Spectrin added), ZiwiPeak dry venison and Royal Canin dry duck and peas. This combination reduces his symptoms (itchy head, ears and paws) but does not eliminate them. I feed the third brother grain-free, dry Evo chicken and turkey. A vet at the Cornell Feline Health Center suggested that I feed my cats a raw diet. Cooked proteins cause the allergic reactions. I would check Evangers out if it were available locally. IT looks like a high quality food. I have to order the ZiwiPeak online, and the local grange isn’t stocking its shelves regularly with the canned Evo duck. I’m glad more pet food makers are offering grain-free dry and canned cat food.

Evanger is really good food and my cats love it! However, there is only one store in my area that sells it, so finding it is really difficult! When I do find it, I only get enough to last me for a short time since they only carry the small bags of it too. I usually mix it with my Orijen because I can find Orijen more readily and my cats love it too.

I have a DMH with food allergies. I wanted to find a quality cat food that my kitten not only likes but is good for her and eliminates the severely itchy skin on head and paws she’s been suffering from for months now. Does anybody have feedback on that?

After reading about most of the high-quality protein/low-carb dry cat foods on this website I’m now leaning toward Evangers. Unfortunately there’s not much feedback on it. I’m happy for GilGilm that her little lovie is doing so much better. >

We have been feeding our 2 kitties (now about 9 months old) from a local cat shelter mostly Friskies Seafood Sensations. It’s affordable and supposed to be “complete nutrition,” but I’m not very impressed with the ingredients. I brought these guys home as babies, and they were both so dehydrated and malnourished that we thought we might lose them.

Fortunately, after spending a whole lot of money on vet care, they are now pretty healthy, but they are also overweight, especially my Maine Coon girl, Tigerlily. Her poo is more stinky and not quite as well formed as Romeo’s. Our vet thinks she may have a food allergy, but testing for that is really expensive!

I wonder if a cat food that does not have cereal/animal byproducts as the primary ingredients might be healthier and more satisfying for them. Perhaps Tigerlily eats like a piggie because she’s not getting enough protein from the kibble. I guess I’ll have to try it and see.

While looking for another good quality food for my DMH named Charlie…I came across some interesting information from a vet friend…and it was true.

Charlie had (as most felines do) a love of chewing/licking plastic. Something which was STRONG discouraged. However since he is a cat….no matter what you do…they find a way.

So when speaking with my vet friend wondering if perhaps Charlie’s diet was lacking something which would make him lick every plastic item like a lollipop….my friend mentioned that some cats who have love omega-3 intake(Charlie is a rare..rare feline who thinks fish is a threat). So his diet was birds and red meats(Innova brand). My friend gave me a sample of evangers and upon reading the “whitefish” line I kinda figured Charlie wouldn’t eat it. But he loves the stuff. So now he gets a mixed up of the Innova and the Evangers…and SHOCKINGLY his addiction to plastic…has dropped dramatically.

I have already recommended this to several friends.

Weird isn’t it…I know…
