Re: Food - wet, dry or mixed?


95 % wet, with just a tiny sprinkling of dry on top for flavor and crunch. I used to leave a bowl of dry down for ad lib feeding, but discontinued after a bout of cystitis. I add a little lukewarm water to the wet to make more gravy (she loves it) and increase the water intake. Cats, coming originally from an arid climate, tend to not drink as much water as they should.

When you get the kitten(s), keep him on the food he's used to eating; you can gradually change him over to what you prefer as he settles and gets a little older.

Wet only here too, we feed a high meat content wet food ( hi-life) and the bowls are always empty, compared to when we used to feed Tesco premium, and there was always meat left in the bowl.
