Wheat In Cat Food!

A prior topic on wheat in cat litter prompted my to look also at my cat's food and sure enough there it is. I have been "gluten-free" or so I thought for years, but unable to get beyond feeling positively poisoned in the last six months. Hopefully, this was the cause. Does anyone know of some quality, wheat-free dry cat food? Also, I wonder if my cat Toby has a problem with gluten. He sleeps too much and seems to have arthritis in his shoulders.

My cats eat California Natural. It is a very high quality food (human grade ingredients) and doesn't contain wheat.

For what it's worth, when I asked if the new cat food that our vet was prescibing had gluten in it, she said that she had attended a conference and said that they are seeing celiac disease in pets. I haven't checked it out but I was suprized.

Wellness Core. Grain free and gluten free pouch foods as well. Everything made in the US,with US suppliers, all human grade ingredients, everything listed, nothing hidden. They even source things. NOT involved with the food recall in any way. It is a high quality food and my cat loves it! Which is amazing as she was a feral cat who adopted us (she is now tame) and usually only wants, er.. "fresh" things.... lol!

They also make gluten free for dogs. I use California Natural (also gluten-free, one of my dogs has every known intolerance possible, lol!) and Wellness Core Canine. Never have had any problems! I hope this helps! Once again, Wellness Core, California Natural.

Kit'n'Kaboodle only has corn gluten, I'm pretty sure. Some flavors of Friskies are gluten free, the Seafood Sensation flavor and Signature Blend.

But double check to make sure. I checked a few months ago and now just grab those flavors without looking.

I do think the cat is healthier now. He used to throw up all the time, but now it's pretty infrequent.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
