Dry Food Strange Smell?

[Furbabycatmom]

A few days ago my neighbors down the street had a electrical house fire and they brought their slightly singed food to put in my fridge. I store Marla's dry food in the fridge because I have a pest problem, a day or two later the dry food smelled like the slightly signed food my neighbors have been storing in my fridge and she sometimes doesn't finish her food. Is it ok for her to eat if I rinse the dry food? Unfortunately my money won't be in until the near end of the month.

Hi! It should be fine.
If your kitty gets finicky try adding something nice and smelly like tuna liquid, low sodium clam juice, that sort of thing.
Just don't leave moistened kibble out for very long due to fast bacteria growth.

I wouldn't rinse it!

It's fine; off smells from something else in the fridge won't hurt her. The only problem is if she doesn't eat it. But if she'll eat it, it's just fine.
