My baby (18) is overweight (about 17.5 lbs), we have him on a special diet and limit his food the best we can. He is on Hill's urinary hydrolyzed protein dry food and blue buffalo's urinary wet food. I have been incorporating some tiki cat silver line for added protein. He has LOTS of food sensitivities, so his food is what he currently doesn't react to.
Anyways, he has severe arthritis and I know the weight isn't helping. I've noticed he's been playing less and less.
Is there a way I can help him lose weight, and help him build more muscle mass (or has that ship sailed)? Is there any supplements that people have tried? He is currently taking glucosamine and chondroitin. He also is on solencia and adequan.
I've talked to his vet, but have had a hard time due to his food sensitivities.
