Ok we have been feeding 64 wet since we found her Aug 30th and she is now about 3 1/2 to 4 months old, I put dry food down, but she barely touches it....how can I get her to eat more dry and just wet once a day or so.

Why do you want to switch her to a partial dry diet?

I thought it was better for her.
No, a wet diet is better for cats/kittens. Check out www.catinfo.org. it's written by a vet that took the time to research nutrition.
Yeah, if you can afford it and it is practical for you, forget the dry. Throw it away.
Dry food is linked to a myriad of diseases, some of them very serious. See the bulleted listed in reason #4 in the article below:

Dry food dehydrates your kitty because cats have a low thirst drive. Rarely do they drink enough water to make up the difference. Dry food is also high in carbs, which aren't really necessary in a cat's diet--in fact, they can cause allergic reactions.
Your kitty seems to know what's good for her. Don't change the food unless it's upgrading to a higher protein wet food or raw.
