Wet or Dry Cat Food – Which is Best?
If you are a cat owner you have probably have asked other owners which is best wet or dry cat food. Some will answer dry, while others will say wet. Or, some may say both. The reasons for each response may vary but, dry dog food is more affordable than wet canned food so it's easier on the family budget. This article will address this topic to help you decide.
Wet Verse Dry Cat Food
Now, let's compare between the wet and dry cat food so you can decide which is best to buy for your pet.
Wet Cat Food
- Cats by nature are carnivore animals. If left to getting food on their own they seek out prey like a missile. This is what their bodies are made to thrive on. Basically, this is what keeps them healthy.
- The main ingredient you are looking for in cat food is meat. The best flavors are fish and chicken.
- Do not get fooled by meat by-products and fillers. Stay away from these. They are not the healthiest products for you cat to eat.
- Wet cat food contains between 40 – 50% water. Out in the wild, this would be up to 70%. This is how a cat gets most of its water is through prey.
- Providing wet cat food simulates what your cat would be getting in the wild. Cats use the fluids of their prey to keep them hydrated.
- Cats that primarily eat wet cat food are healthier in their protein consumption but offend in foul breath.
- You will be cleaning their teeth more often to remove any buildup of plaque.
Dry Cat Food
- Dry cat food has no more than 10% moisture in the food. Your cat needs to get the water it needs from other sources.
- Cats by nature do not drink lots of water. So they will have to be trained to get enough moisture in their bodies on a daily basis. If they don't, it can be fatal to them.
- Cats raised entirely on dry cat food tend to have healthier mouths but are lacking in nutrition.
- When looking at the labels of dry cat food look to confirm that the first ingredient is chicken, turkey or fish and not chicken or meat by-products or filler. These ingredients are not healthy for your pet and should be avoided.
- Dry kibble does help your cat in removing excess plaque from their teeth, so cleaning them will be not as often as with wet food.
- Cats by nature usually nibble at their food throughout the day. They do not eat all of their food at one sitting.
- Leaving wet cat food can cause attraction for germs, bugs, and rodents.
- Try combining both the wet and dry cat foods together. This may be the best of both worlds.
Your cat will help you decide which is best for her wet or dry cat food or a combination of both.
Choosing Cat Food
When choosing your cat's food, the ingredients and the nutritional levels are the most important. Choosing between wet or dry food is secondary. The main thing here is to provide your cat with the best nutrition and well-balanced cat food that will allow her to live a full and healthy life.
Happy cat food selecting!
