Then a friend told me that a vet told him cats need wet food, that it's healthier for them, while another said they need dry food which is better for their teeth. All I know is my cat prefers wet food and starts meowing WAY TOO EARLY to get some in the morning. SO I'm back to dry for her during the day and wet at night, hoping she'll stop the meowing in the morning. What do you feed your pet, and how is it working out?
Remember when you switched your little ones from formula to solid food. They slept longer and were filled up. Same with kittens/cats. Wet food is good to get them used to and probably better, but solid food sticks to the ribs.
Put some dry food and wet food on a plate. I always put the wet over the dry. They will eat it and stay full longer. Always leave dry food out for a young cat so they can graze.
Sometimes they just like attention. Remember, they are training you - they think.
