Price, brand, etc., dont matter. I want to know what the best, most nutritious, vitamin-filled and beneficial cat food there is. My cat is 3, totally an indoor cat, has problems with hairballs, and will eat whatever (Ive tried a few different dry and wet foods, all to her liking).

RAW! Sorry, I get a little excited about raw food. Cats in the wild dont really have hairballs and it is largely due to their diet. Because raw food is what your cat evolved to eat, it is the healthiest for them. Raw food will help reduce her shedding which will lessen hairballs too. I really like Primal, Stella and Chewys, Natures Logic, Bravo and Natures Variety raw frozen foods. You can start with something like Sojos dehydrated raw food (it easy to transition to because you can mix it with warm water, whereas raw is usually served thawed but cold). I would find a few different flavors and brands that your cat likes and rotate between them for optimal health. After switching food, brushing your cat regularly will also help. Try a shedding blade or a Furminator.

I use purina one indoor cat food with hairball control. it works good, also i use hairball treats, that seems to help too. there are lots of cat foods on the market just keep trying one that she will eat and go with it.

Ive done a lot of research into this and if possible please feed your cat a grain free diet that is high in animal based protein. As you probably know, cats are obligate carnivores and b/c of that, foods high in grain (carbs) are not healthful. There are several grain free pet food varieties available but my cats prefer Wellness Brand. Additionally focus on wet cat food not dry. The best website Ive found that explains all this in detail is http://www. catinfo. org/index. htm. I truly believe that this diet has made a real difference in the quality of my cats lives. I hope you find this info helpful. PS Have you tried Petromalt to aid with the passing of hairballs? Also, daily grooming time with your cat will really reduce the amount of hair she ingests and in turn passes, plus its a great bonding activity.
