Hi and thank you for your question on Boop by Petco! Omega 3 & 6 Fatty Acids can help quite a bit with hair and skin health. B vitamins (B12, B5, B9) can also help with skin and coat health. Vitamin E can also help. I would acquire these supplements from your veterinarian. Here's a good supplement on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Theracoat-Skin-and-Coat-Supplement/dp/B005FYOCQ4 I hope this helps!

Purina Proplan is one of the three highest quality foods I recommend to clients. The other two are Royal Canin and Hills. They follow veterinary nutritionist guidelines and current evidence based research. Gluten intolerance is extremely rare in pets and gluten content has no bearing on a food's quality. It is also important to not overfeed protein as it can harm the kidneys, so foods with higher meat content may not be better. I hope this helps.

VetriScience NuCat Multivitamin Everyday Health Bite Sized Chews available on chewy.com and amazon.com are highly palatable multivitamins that would be good to supplement Greg’s diet with. Prescription Royal Canin recovery canned diet is generally palatable (yummy) to even sick or hospitalized cats and is another option as well that your vet can either sell from his/her practice or prescribe. Good luck!

I think both these diets are an acceptable choice for your cat. The most important thing is that your cat continues to eat well. So, if he prefers the Purina then stick to that! Thanks for using Boop by Petco. Best of luck.

Canned food is recommended because it has a high moisture content and it is a high protein/low carb diet. Cats are obligate carnivores, which means they require protein (of animal origin) and very little to no carbs in their diet. In the wild, the only carbs ingested are typically those eaten by small prey. Many dry foods, by their very nature, are high in carbs which can lead to obesity. You can continue to feed a dry food as long as you choose a grain free or low carb product. Keep them up to date on vaccines, use monthly parasite prevention, feed a healthy diet and provide plenty of exercise and love. Probiotics can be used to promote gut health and won't harm them, however if they have no GI issues then you can skip them.
