Thread: Proportioning Dry/Wet food.

I have always had mine on royal canin maine coon feed, obviously the kitten one to start with, then introducing the adult one, they eat wet food a.m and p.m but the royal canin is down all the time, one has a much bigger apetite than the other! I have tried roast chicken, steak, and fish, no, they like what they like! mine are very fussy!

Yeah thats what I was thinking of doing, keeping the dry food present at all times and then tinned am/pm, with maybe some meat & fish once in a while.

However I was reading today theres there's a fair few with the opinion that dried is not so good for them, as it tends to make them thirstier as they would be with just wet food.

Perhaps it's one of those things where you need to see what you cat(s) enjoy and try to balance their enjoyment with a sensible diet.

I was always told that the best food for your cat, is the food:
a) they like to eat
b) which keeps them in an optimal condition

Apart from the meat/fish I give them, they also have dry food (Royal Canin) all day through. I think the most important thing is that you offer them a balanced diet which contains everything they need to stay in good health.
