Thank you for using Boop by Petco. Many veterinarians will carry Hill’s prescription diets. I recommend calling to see who may carry it. As it is a prescription diet they may require a prescription or call from your veterinarian in order to sell the food.

I recommend Hills Science Diet, Purina, and Royal Canin. These are all high quality brands with good research behind them, that perform feeding trials to ensure adequate bioavailability of all the essential nutrients. Hope that helps!

You could try contacting Hill’s directly to see if they could help locate bags of the older version or recommend a similar food. At some point Rini will need to transition to a new food - you may want to try Purina’s version of sensitive skin and stomach or a Royal Canin food. https://www.hillspet.com/contact-us

Ideally, I would recommend a prescription diet such as Royal Canin MP, or Hills prescription diet k/d. If he will not eat a prescription food, choose a senior formulation of some kind. Wet or canned food is great, but if he prefers dry that's fine. Ensure that there is plenty of fresh water sources throughout your home. I wish you and Peaches the best! Thank you for asking Boop by Petco.

Frankly, I do not care for Blue Buffalo products because they have a history of lying about their ingredients in their diets. Hills and Royal Canin are my preferred brands. There are other limited protein food brands out there, such as Natural Balance, which has formulas with a single protein source and a single carbohydrate source, making it less likely for your cat to develop an allergy.
