My 19 year old is obviously my biggest concern since at her age she'll be more prone to getting sick or going into renal failure if I get a bad bag of food just because of her age - she's very healthy (actually - probably the healthiest cat in the house!), but I am super careful about her diet because she is so old. But she won't eat near the other cats anyway - so it's easy to leave her diet alone and switch the others.

I have tried 3 of the 4 Fromm foods, none went well . I love the ingredients and quality - just didn't do well with my cats.

Absolutely positively will NOT feed Blue. Seen far to many quality control problems with it - I tried it ONCE, and while my vet and I can't prove it was the food - within a week one of my cats was in 24/7 ICU care at a specialty hospital extremely ill (never did get a proper diagnosis even after thousands of dollars in diagnostics and hospitalization - we put him on grain free wet food only and slowly he recovered), and another crashed really suddenly and didn't make it. My vet said he'd seen a few cats on Blue with similar symptoms and sudden onset illness of various degree. Blue failed to even acknowledge it was possible despite what the vet told me - and several vets I've mentioned my ordeal to since have confirmed in their practices! It crushed me to loose one of my babies like that - and with Blue never admitting it could be a possibility they lost any sliver of trust I had in them. Oddly enough when my Aiyana got really sick right before she was diagnosed with Addisons - the very first thing the internal medicine specialist (this was before the incident with my cats) asked me is if I ever fed Blue to her. I should have taken the hint there and stayed FAR away from it! I did for the dogs but for whatever stupid reason I tried it with my cats and firmly believe it not only cost me thousands in vet bills, but one of my sweet Oogie's life!
