InkedMarie, thanks for the compliment!
Thanks, Susan. I guess I need to find a better vet. The one I just took him to last week just said “well, I guess you have to keep doing trial and error with different foods.” It didn’t sound like she knew the first thing about fibers or any of that.

As of yesterday, I’m putting a bit of the Nature’s Domain Turkey and Sweet Potato in Atlas’ food. His poo this morning was softer, but I’m crossing my fingers that it’s not related to the new food. Yesterday I put a quarter cup of the new food in his food in the morning and another quarter cup at night. This morning I gave him half a cup of the new food mixed in with the old. Does that seem like a gradual enough transition or am I pushing it too fast? And if his poo does get softer, should I just assume the food doesn’t work for him and take him off it, or should I keep him on it (without increasing the proportion) to see if his belly gets used to it?

Thanks!
