Thanks.

Update : The diet isn't working too well. 1/2 dry , 1/2 wet and
there's a mess to clean each morning, outside box - not quite diarrhea
butttttt..........close. I might be going away and don't expect the
catsitter to have to deal with this, I'll set up two boxes and put
him back on dry until I return. Then will introduce the canned food
at a more gradual pace.
I'll also try giving wet in the morning and dry at night. I was
feeding the reverse.
