hi,
my two-year old boy has been dining on nutro natural choice dry food
since he was a kitten, because he seems to have allergies to most
other foods (he couldn't take science diet or iams, and even has
problems with pounce treats--vomiting or stool issues). he was really
good with the nutro, actually, but the guy at the pet food store
convinced me to try the wellness dry food... since he really liked the
sample so much, i bought a bag last week and started mixing it in with
the nutro.

he seems to like it a lot, but i've noticed that he's been making LOTS
of trips to the litter box lately. he'll nibble a bit, and then go on
over to the box, hop in and scratch around for a bit, and then come
out, sometimes just to head back over to his food bowl. he seems as
happy and frisky as ever, and his fur is a bit shinier than
before--but has anyone else ever noticed this before? is it possible
that his system is adjusting, and that it will work itself out? it's
been about a week, and today is the first day i've given him just the
wellness alone. it seems odd that he goes to the box so often. it
doesn't seem like he's doing anything more than usual in there, but it
seems kind of odd. (just to clarify, we're using the same litter as
before--the swheat scoop, and it's cleaned out daily).

i don't know if i should switch back to the nutro, since we didn't
really have any problems with it... i just keep reading/hearing about
how much better the wellness is, so i thought i'd try it. he's got
such a sensitive tummy i don't want to keep changing his food on
him...

any thoughts would be appreciated... thanks!
