This is the food our new cat was eating previously.  I can't even find the ingredients of it on the net.  Is it only sold at Costco?

What are you kibble feeders using now?

Wellness Indoor Health is the kibble my cats get (along with their wet).

I would like to find a good kibble too but one that is not those little tiny balls like most kibble seems to be now.  I am currently feeding Pet Promise because I comes in small 12 ounce bags and kibble is just an extra.  Newmans come in little 1 pound bags but Socks keeps choking on it.

Eric,
Is that the smaller kibble, too, for Indoor Health?

Judy,

Is pet promise small kibble, too?  I've only used the wet.

JustMe,
Yes, the Indoor Health kibble is of the small pellet variety. My cats also occassionally get Halo dry, but it's even smaller. They have no problems with the small kibble though.

Just Me,
     I don't feed kibble, so can't help you with any suggestions.  However, I just wanted to answer your questions about the Kirkland brand.  Kirkland is Costco's brand name for all of their store brand products.  So, yes, it is just sold at Costco.  (I'm a Costco member).

I am feeding Merrick BG......before grain Chicken. 
Also comes in Salmon, but I don't feed fish to any of my kitties. 
This BG kibble is being fed to the group that I have outside who were abandoned.  They are doing very well on it.

If cats could talk......They wouldn't

Tortie cats are like Almond Joys........Very sweet and a little nuts

Thanks, I'll look into the Indoor Health and BG kibbles for alternatives.  Right now, the new boy doesn't have a very good appetite.  He likes fishy foods.  He is eating some CORE and some canned Wellness, but nowhere near the amount I feel he should be eating.  I hope he just needs to get used to his new home.  He was free fed, so I left dry out all night for him (he was in his pen).  He did eat maybe 1/3 of it.

(I did feed CORE to all 11 cats and nobody had problems with the small kibble.  It's 1-1/2 days later.  No vomitting.)
