Hi,
I just adopted a new cat today! It's been 6 months since I lost my beloved Jasmine, and so I felt the time was right.
I've been reading alot lately about feeding cats wet food - and that this is better than dry due to them being 'obligate carnivores', etc. Jasmine, whom I had for 12 years, only ever ate dry. I certainly hope that this was not a prime factor in her getting kidney problems as she got older - due to the lower moisture content in dry food.
What do you recommend? Only wet? Combination wet/dry? There seems to be some validity to always having dry food out and available for the cat, but then also giving canned.
Any advice appreciated...
Thanks!
Keith
