Inflammatory bowel disease in ocicat?

I have a 13yo. Ocicat that has a genetic inflammatory bowel. Does anyone with experience dealing with this in your cat. What did you do, what foods do you feed, is it under control. I would appreciate your feedback.

Hi
You have unfortunately probably been feeding dry foods
You do NOT want to feed the crap the vet sells, That is just asking for more problems
You need to either switch to canned foods with as little in the way of grains as possible or a raw diet where there are no grains at all. If money is a problem, you can feed the gluten free fancy feast. Email me if interested and I will get you the list.
What you also want to do is cut down on the fats

Better though would be a human grade quality canned food like Merrick or wellness
Even better though
Diet seems to play a huge part in most IBD cats, Try feeding a novel protein like rabbit, with no grains, veggies, fruit, beef or fish
For a raw diet which is the best choice, you can buy something like nature's variety or you can make your own
This site shows you how

Here is a link about ibd

My info comes from working with diabetic cats worldwide and many of them have other issues including ibd. I am giving you info that works

My most recommended foods to try in any IBD kitty are Hill's i/d, z/d and d/d. I usually get success with one of those, and if not, add in a low dose of prednisone. IBD is nasty, and difficult to get control of, but keep trying.

I have never had a cat with this problem. As a raw feeder I have heard many comments from people going that route that IBD can change the whole situation even overnight!

There is a Yahoo group for IBD cats so you might want to get a membership in that to find out what steps others have taken to help their cats with this problem.
