Cats Food

Dry food is not necessary for dental health for cats. They don't chew it, and it mostly gets soggy with saliva and coats the teeth, turning into hard glop. Cats don't need the grain in dry food. I feed my cats Wellness and Natural Balance wet food only. They eat breakfast and dinner, about 3-4 ounces each meal. They are healthy and happy. These brands are made from human quality ingredients and are mostly meat. Cats are obligate carnivores, meaning they must eat meat. These foods are good for them.

My vet advised mt to not feed my cats wet food very often as it gives them diareha. I feed them Purina Kitten Chow for cats under 1 year right now as they are only 7 months old. I do feed them some soft food from Friskies once in awhile I tried some other brands and they would not eat it.

That is not just a cut and dry question. There are so many different types of each that you really need to read the labels. Stay away from the ones that have mead-by-products, artificial colors & flavors and fillers (like ash). This goes for both the wet & dry food. I believe Whiskas is the one that has whole fillets of fish you can buy for wet food. As far as wet and dry, you cat needs both to be healthy. They need the dry to keep their teeth healthy and the wet for their kidneys. Personally, we don't use either. We use Nutro Naturals for the wet food and an organic dry food that is almost all protein and vegetables and almost zero carbs.

well can i say that neither is good? i used to feed friskies to my cats until my vet advised against it. she mentioned that she had observed an increased instance of urinary tract infection in cats that eats these brands. it seems that the salt content in these products are pretty high. cats are not very effective in removing salt so this puts a tremendous strain on their system. in the short term, they might develop urinary tract infection. in the long term, they might end up with renal failure. cheers ;p
