cat food

I have 2 cats, one is 4 yrs, old and one is 6 yrs, old. They only eat wet food, they don't touch the dry food, is this OK??

Between the two of them they eat 1 can a day, is this ok?

Re: cat food

I've heard so many different opinions on wet and dry food, it's ridiculous. I know that wet-only diets increase dental issues, b/c they're not cleaning the plaque off their teeth with dry. Can you maybe tried a different brand of dry? My kitties like Wellness.

We have 2 cats, similar in age to yours (3 and 2). We split a 5.5oz can half in morning, half in eve, and leave dry out all day. It seems to be a perfect balance. One is slightly overweight, but they're both active and healthy.

Re: cat food

how is their weight? 1/2 a can of food a day seems like very little if you're not supplementing with dry.

Re: cat food

My cat has urinary tract issues so the vet said only wet.
It gets them to take in more moisture that way, since most cats are not big drinkers of water.
