is in big trouble. He has been fighting off kidney disease and liver problems and was doing well. Now after almost 10 years of eating his rolled food, both companies have decided to change the formulas and he won't touch anything. I have tried all kinds of canned and dry food and have even cooked for him. He eats just enough to stay alive but has lost over 1/2 pound in a week. Any one have any ideas? He is almost 11 years old now and very spoiled. I love this little 3 pound ball of fur and will try anything to help him keep living.

Have you tried any of the prescription kidney foods?

Dudley's Mom · 05-09-2014, 08:41 AM

Yes I have. He won't eat anything. I don't know why he is so stubborn. He has always been that way. Someone on here years ago suggested Natural Balance rolls years ago and he has always loved those. Now I just have to watch him waste away. It just seems so wrong to me not to be able to do something for him.

I would recommend consulting with a nutritionist. There are members here who recommend Remillard
