Hey guys, (EXCUSE title I had a daft moment! and now can't change it)

My Cavalier King Charles Kaytee has IBD and I am looking to change her food, whilst researching the net I came across Natures Menu, I am not sure if you guys have it over there? they do a frozen diet, I think it is raw meat, rice and veg frozen and ready to be defrosted and fed, Well on looking it up more a review mentioned it is good for IBD but I am not sure what to do as in the ingredients there is no mention of added vitamins, will this food alone be OK or will I have to add more vitamins? http://www.naturesmenu.co.uk/products/frozen/chicken/ Thats the page.

The other thing I looked into was James Well beloved but I was thinking would meat be kinder on her poor tum then having to digest dry? Also JWB often has Oats And Barley in it which I have been told to avoid with a dog with IBD. I know meat would mean more dedication to teeth cleaning which I do allready, Only prob is Kaytee has sore gums so I cannot brush so use Logic.

Well hope you can let me know what you think? I will go pick some for up tomorrow just hard as we dont seem to have many good foods here in the UK which is annoying not compared to the US who have many websites with food and treats made especially for dogs with IBD! Take care and thanks xx

It seems to be a good food and most of the reviews I read of it were very positive. Can you get Honest Kitchen in the UK? If so, I'd check them out also, compare the two and make a decission.

If Nature's Variety is your only choice, it should be fine.

Thank you so much, I can't get the food you mentioned in the UK well couldn't seem to find it, I rang the company that make natures menu who told me you do have to add vitamins, I asked my vet and she said SA37 should do the trick if I buy that and give it to her daily, What do you think? I still worry about whether she is getting enough/too much vitamins!?

PS Since all the confusion about RAW I found a new flavour in James Wellbeloved that will be OK for Kaytee as has none of the things she is allergic to, also I found a Wafcol food, sorry to be a nightmare but if you had to choose between the two makes which would you prefer? thanks xx
