When your cat reaches their senior years it's time to consider a switch in food. Just like our needs change as we get older, your cat’s nutritional needs may begin to shift.

Punkin is adorable and looks like he has a lot to say! My favorite brands of pet food are Science Diet and Royal Canin. Both are excellent quality foods with many years of research and experience behind their formulations, the foods are made to meet specific needs for your pets and are tested by real pets to ensure they are palatable and nutritious. Depending on his age and body condition a regular adult cat food or mature diet would probably work just fine for him. And if you haven't already done so, make an appointment to get him neutered. It will help him stay healthier longer as he ages and will greatly reduce the strong aroma from his urine.

Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! I would find an "All Stages" food that all the cats can eat. There are many companies that make this kind of food that can be fed to adults and kittens. If you google all stages cat food some will come up. Below is a link for an example, not saying to choose this particular one.

I recommend feeding an all meat canned or wet diet with added canned plain pumpkin. Cats do not do well with carbohydrates so feeding only meat will help Pumpkin lose weight. The canned pumpkin will help fill her up and add fiber and bulk up the stool to prevent constipation. Increasing her exercise also will help. You can feed her up on the dryer or a table so she has to jump up, and having her increase her activity chasing toys or a laser pointer will help also. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to help you care for Pumpkin.

Yes, I personally like Royal Canin diets. For her age, just the regular Adult food is fine. ( https://www.royalcanin.com/ca/en_ca/cats/products/vet-products?specialneeds=0ad835cc921d4d0cb3ee61a8cc461fbe&feedingperiod=78.3&filter=643ceeb4-c516-477f-96db-fd7ee1b41ec0 ) She can eat either wet or dry; whichever she prefers and what you can afford. Canned food can be very expensive if that is all you are feeding. You can also feed a combination of both wet and dry if you'd like. Feed her according to the directions on the packaging. If you do both wet and dry you need to make sure you don't overfeed her. She is already at her maximum weight so if you notice weight gain you will need to back off on how much you are feeding.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Baluu can definitely switch to adult food at this time. I have seen many healthy cats on Merrick and it appears to be a quality food. I also like and trust Purina as well (my own cat eats Purina). Fancy Feast is considered a slightly lower quality, but I have seen many cats do well on it. As with any diet switch, switch slowly over 3-5 days to prevent stomach upset. Hope this helps and best of luck to you and Baluu!
