Wheat In Cat Food!


Celiaction

Recommended Posts

Celiaction Rookie

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.

Thanks Peter!

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.

I feed my cats costco cat food. Gluten free, first ingredients are actual food, not by-products.

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.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
