How often do you feed your cat wet food compared to dry food?
How often do you feed your cat wet food compared to dry food?
Just wondering how you guys balance the mix of these. Our cats looooove wet food, but keep it as a treat for every now and then. Have to keep the wet cat food in a plastic sealed container as our cats will tear through the box they come in and dig their way through haha.

Should be all wet if you can. It's healthier for them.
My guy loves the dehydrated stuff but won't eat it with water, so i mix it with raw kangaroo meat (which he also loves).
Picky little spoiled fucker won't eat anything cheaper.
Wow really? I always figured wet food was considered a treat only. I have some reading to do!
A mix of both is better for their teeth. Wet is good for hydration (which cats are bad at), whereas dry is good for teeth. I know some cats who have lost teeth, but my 7/yo has extremely healthy ones and we've never had to do any sort of dentistry
We give her wet & dry together, twice a day and a handful of "Feline Greenie" treats throughout the day which allegedly help with dental hygiene. I have no reason to doubt so far!
We're really fortunate that our cat loves to gnosh on toys that will scrape her teeth; she's on an all wet diet to help with bowel issues. Of course I still toss her a few greenies treats every other night because she goes nuts for them and it can't hurt.
