One of my cats has been diagnosed with kidney disease and I was wondering if there is a better option than Hill's Science Diet as they won't eat it.

Ideally, I would recommend a prescription diet such as Royal Canin MP, or Hills prescription diet k/d. If he will not eat a prescription food, choose a senior formulation of some kind. Wet or canned food is great, but if he prefers dry that's fine. Ensure that there is plenty of fresh water sources throughout your home. I wish you and Peaches the best! Thank you for asking Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
