Hi there, I've just joined the site, not being a regular user of forums I'm not sure if I'm posting this correctly. Anyway, I found my cat, Emmet, when I was walking to work one night a couple of years ago and he was a very young scrawny kitten. He came to work with me and been with me ever since. He was an indoor cat for around a year when I lived in a flat and I fed him dry food after trying wet food which created smelly welcome homes after coming home from work. Didn't really bother me but I had a girlfriend living with me at the time who used to pass comment, and after minimal research I decided dry food was better for his health anyway.
I moved into a friend's house about a year ago and started letting Emmet outside which is great because he is very playful and loves being out, sleeps on my bed at night though lol. I feed him either iams or Purina food which he likes but he is rather large and I would like to see him slim down a bit. I've been looking up about cats losing weight and discovered the general consensus to be that wet food is preferable to dry mainly due to carbs in the dry. My question is can anyone advise me on a good wet food to buy, I bought whiskas this morning even though I know it's far from 'good', looking at the ingredients. I don't mind spending money on decent food, my local pet shop only really seems to have premium brands in dry food though. If I know a good food to buy I can order it online
