Science Diet vs Felidae

Hi. My vet carries Science Diet, and of course, he claims that it is
the best cat food available. I've heard great things about Felidae.
Is
it better that Science Diet, or is that hype too?

Thanks.

You've got to ask yourself a few question regarding the 2 companies.
Why does the company that makes Felidae only make "all life stage
foods" (growth formulas or kitten/puppy food)? Does this company
believe that geriatric cats are the same as kittens? What nutritonal
research has this company done or contributed to? (I believe
none...especially when compared with Hill's) Why doesn't this company
provide high levels of antioxidants in Felidae (like Hill's does)?
What is the urinary pH output of Felidae? Is it betweeen 6.2-6.4? Why
or why not? What is the nutrient profile on a dry matter basis of
Felidae? Do they even know? Do they "outsource" the making of their
food or do they make it themselves (not just put their "name" on the
bag)? Do they use a fixed formula? There are many questions that
can't be answered just by looking at the label on the bag. Personally,
I swear by Science Diet.
