I would recommend checking in with your vet. Often a prescription diet isn't needed for diabetes, and a diet change usually isn't recommended for Cushing's. L/d is usually prescribed for liver disease so I'm wondering if Gatsby might have another underlying condition that your vet is concerned about.
