I wrote something about this in a separate thread but I figured it merited its own separate thread on which I could be flamed independently
I believe the best diet you could provide your cat is one in which you insure that the cat is receiving every last nutrient it's system could possibly take advantage of (while minimizing the bad stuff). As such, a good strategy would probably be to feed your cat both the expensive "all natural hippie diet", bought at whole foods of course, alongside a more traditional big-name premium cat food such as Purina Pro-Plan or the like.
The hippie food would include all of the OMEGA-3 and other "oddball" nutrients that might come in handy, and the big-name food would make sure to hit up all the other stuff on the AAFCO's list. Feed your cat half & half and you're bound to have covered all your nutritional bases (with high quality food from both categories, of course).
This is what I'll be doing with my kitty, anyway. The wet food will be traditional "premium" food, the dry food will be the Whole-foods type stuff.
Any big disagreement I should be considering here?
