Default Does Tiger have a problem???

Canned food is more efficient - meaning there isn't the "waste" that there is with the high carb hard food. I would worry more about the possibility of a bladder infection.

Since July 1st when Tiger Recovered from his infection things have
changed. Previously, he presented with large, smelly poops. Now, he
poops very little but does pee a lot. He used to eat quite a bit of dry
food (Innova) as treats but now eats mostly canned food. He does eat
plenty and acts normal except he gets in the litter box from time to
time and "tries" with little success. I know that the canned food is at
least 78 percent water (and I add some water to soften it) which could
account for this. He hates to travel so I don't want to take him to the
vet.
