Dianne- From a veterinarian: the kind of allergy testing that I think you refer to is inaccurate when it comes to food. The best way is a food trial as guided by your own vet. Good to hear you found one that works.

Instead of all this lengthly testing with I assume is store brand cat foods, further extending the suffering of the cat, please consider getting an allergy test done on the cat at the vet. While fairly expensive (I think ours cost $200) this will result in an itemized and detailed listing of all things your cat is allergic to, by category (food, external environmental susbstances like weeds, etc..) and the severity of reaxtion to each item. Then you can simply find food that is low on your cat’s reactive list. Green pea and rabbit formula from IVD is what we use, also Duck formula from Royal Canin.
