So, when I took mocha to the vet for her first round of kitten shots I asked the about feeding in order to make sure she was getting the right stuff. At the time she was getting about a half to 2/3 of a can of Nutro split up over two feedings, and free feeding dry in between. (These are both kitten-specific foods.) She usually won't eat the wet food until it has warmed up closer to room temperature, but she's been perfectly happy and gaining weight normally. But, contrary to what I've been reading here, the vet told me that there is really no point to feeding wet food. (Yes, WET.) He said all she really ought to have is very little wet food (basically a treat) and mainly dry. His logic was that wet food doesn't give her anything extra except dirty teeth.
So what gives? I'm inclined to feed according to the vet's advice (which I have, and she still seems perfectly happy about her food) but thought I'd ask about it here. Anybody else get this advice from their vet?
