In October Bella was "diagnosed" with IBS and started on Royal Canin gastrointestinal wet food. That has stopped working because she's worse. New vet wants her on the hydrolyzed food but Royal Canin doesn't make this in wet and Bella turns her nose to the Hills hydrolyzed wet food. Is there ANYTHING wet that's NOT vet prescribed that will work? Thank you for your suggestions

@Ailin , hugs, so sorry for Bella's IBD diagnosis. same her with my Macie Mae Bengal. She hates the rx foods wet or dry. For her case, vet prescribed Budesonide 1x a day. she no longer pukes ! yah.
she has high blood pressure so she is on meds for that. I went with a lower sodium food, that was even lower than some rx foods. I tried soo many wet foods, she turned her nose up to.

for the win, (I brought the can to my vet to show). She loves Weruva press your lunch. it's jello like. I mush with a silicone spatula and add a little water . she cleans the bowl and hold it down. it's non rx , I get deals on chewy, etc... with chewy if a food doesnt work, call their customer service and they work with you.

you can ask your vet about Weruva press your lunch wet food. petsupermarket etc sells 3 oz cans to try. Macie likes it so much, I buy the 5 oz 8 pack cans now. My ClaireBare sphynx loves it too. no skin or poo issues. there are other varieties too like weruva press your dinner ,etc but sticking with this one since she eats it up and hold it down.




all paws crossed for sweet Bella. please keep us updated often. hugs n positive vibe head smooches.

of course, I have to preface with check with your vet if okay for Bella. feeding what works here for my IBD girl and my sphynx loves it too.
there are other varieties as well. the press your dinner is similar too.
