- Assess if the digestion issue is consistent over time.
- Consider mixing old food with new to ease transition.
- Explore alternative brands matching taste and texture.
Gastrointestinal problems can often be resolved by modifying your cat's diet gradually. Start by mixing their favorite wet food with a new one that offers similar taste and texture. Introduce the new food slowly to make the transition smoother. Some cats may prefer a gradual transition to avoid any digestive discomfort.
