Our rescue director and I are at odds about feeding my foster boys. I will do as she asks, b/c the cats are not mine.
I had been feeding a mix of wet and dry - they get wet breakfast with a little dry mixed in... and a much smaller portion of that at night.
The problem I was having was that Tex would gobble his wet so fast he was puking it back up. So we had to come up with strategies to slow him down. He gets very little wet right now and it seems to agree with him more.
Then I got a lecture about how there is no nutritional value in wet food, that is is mostly water and you should feed a cat a dry diet unless they don't drink water. I tried arguing with her, but she didn't want to listen.
Sooo...oooo... I will have to abide by her rules until I get cats of my own and then I will feed them the really good stuff dry and wet.
