I've read quite a few threads here that mentions that wet food has less calories and is better for chubby cats.
My 16 year old cat is beyond chubby, she's obese. (I love her all the same)
My vet told me during two different visits to switch to a recommended low-calorie dry food. He never once mentioned the caloric difference.
This has been a problem for a few years now and I realize she's old but I've spent a fortune on special dry foods and cried MANY times because I fear her impending health problems.
Does anyone think I should switch to wet food for her??? We currently have her on Hills Science Diet. I measure it out daily. I'm willing to do anything to keep her around for a few more years, God willing.
