I have two 3 yr old bengal boys that I was feeding raw whole ground rabbits and some cattle organs mixed with some vegitables up until a few months ago. I was originally doing it to try and achieve a nicer coat to show them but I quit showing them. The entire raw feed program was a little more of a hassle anyway. We are back to a dry free feed now with the occasional raw or wet treat.
I notice some of you feed can food verse dry free feed. I've read some of your posts that you do it for weight control.
Can you tell me more about why you feed the wet can food?
I'm also curious if some of you with heavy weight cats have considered the 10% Crude fat dry feed instead of the normal 20% crude fat?
Wet can food nutrients is calculated a little different then dry because of the water content. When comparing them, I calculated them at basically the same nutrients, fat etc.. when I converted the wet to dry. This is why I am a little surprised you folks are seeing decrease in weight with the wet food; Unless of course you feeding them less.
Thanks for your answers in advance.
Nice forum by the way!
