Charlie,

Where do you get "Premium Edge?"  I've been using Iams for awhile now
and both pyrs have had gas for the last two months.  Which let me tell
ya, is NOT a good thing!  Especially now that it's cold and all the
windows are closed.... Oy Vay!!!

They were previously on Purina and I slowly switched the to Iams because
I thought it would be better for them but it doesn't look like their
digestive tracks agree with me!  I also have the problem of the "Jack
Spratt" family.  The female is overweight and needs to lose 10-15 lbs.
and the male is underweight and needs to gain 10-15 lbs.  The only thing
he enjoys eating is human food.  There isn't anything she doesn't enjoy
eating!

Thanks!
Shannon (the human) Levi & Ali (the hyper pyrs) Boots & Misty (grumpy
cats) and Gus and Fred (the dizzy turtles)
