Why did the vet say to give chicken and rice?
Her pancreas needs to rest which means no food or water by mouth at all for at least 24 hours...

Your vet should give you an idea of what % of fat you are looking for.
My girl has had pancreatitis and is on 18% BUT that is much to high for other pancreatitis patients. It really depends on the circumstances. When talking about the gerneral recommmendation, 12% is too high. The type of fat is also important.

Certain human foods won't hurt a thing when she recovers. It is okay to continue giving some things.

Please Google "Consumer Affairs Nutro." There are illnesses and deaths that seem to be associated with this food all over...
