My two boys who suffer from urinary crystals get raw food and if I can keep them away from carbohydrates (Jack LOVES his carbs) they don't have a problem.Connie - Tails from the Foster Kittenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01127077337743262149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-42244537826016847802012-08-23T07:45:34.084-04:002012-08-23T07:45:34.084-04:00I agree.... the A/D and the C/D are the only two t...I agree.... the A/D and the C/D are the only two that I would consider buying (for a kitty that is an "intended target" of the food.

Sometimes I don't get to take part in these things because even though my blog is popular, the companies do not like that I have to send out my assistant (my human) on their tab! And I can't say I blame them.<br /><br />But honestly, we are not Hills fans over here and between you and Robin alone (I don't know the opinions of the others), I am sure they had their hands full already!Sparklehttp://www.sparklecat.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-84985558887439957962012-08-22T13:43:54.548-04:002012-08-22T13:43:54.548-04:00A very interesting read, Connie!

They must be very keen on publicity!CATachresishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10227422179439047735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-76435157873373928892012-08-22T10:40:30.658-04:002012-08-22T10:40:30.658-04:00good post. I have read yours and part of Robin'...good post. I have read yours and part of Robin's now. I have to say, I suspect Hill's may have hoped to be more "persuasive". I am not a fan, but at least they are reaching out....to bad they aren't more in touch with what people want before they reach out.

I'm guessing they are offering information in the hopes that in return they will get good PR? I too struggle with Hills and won't feed it. (The only exception has been emergency use of their A/D when one of the cats is seriously ill.)<br /><br />Did you get a chance to ask any questions about their food formulations (especially grains and cats)?Renehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10832643923158222775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-10017644911693487152012-08-22T08:13:33.291-04:002012-08-22T08:13:33.291-04:00You can guess what my question is, Connie.

Involves the definition of an "obligate carnivore."<br /><br />BTW, my own vet has been there, and of course was super-impressed with the whole set up.<br /><br />Me? I don't care. I'd feed their food if there were no other options and it was a life and death situation, but otherwise, no. And I don't give a flying fig what their marketing people tell the public.Fuzzy Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09505853082591216696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3859669.post-30134193364295248012012-08-22T06:56:34.617-04:002012-08-22T06:56:34.617-04:00I'm so glad you were able to go...so far, I ca...I'm so glad you were able to go...so far, I can tell you, that even should I be invited, I would decline the invitation.
