I am not offering dry as much, only at night. Dry food is bad for cats. My cats were drinking like crazy yesterday morning. Dont like that. When eating wet food, they dont drink so much. Good Luck! I wish I knew what to feed my cats sooner. Its never too late

@@RedRoseSeptember22 Hi there! Cat food should not be stinky! If you think about it, most cat food is so stinky because the ingredients are often not REAL meat, but fillers and animal derivatives. Cat food should look and smell like real fresh meat, (e.g. real chicken is white/beige not dark brown chuncks) not brown chuncks of wet food or brown pellets of dry food. I hope this is helpful! 😺

My cats love these new smaller-portion "gravy" pouches of tuna or chicken and not so much waste for lite eaters. My vet always said to at least give a can of wet food every few days for the moisture so she was right on! She also recommended using those drops for fleas & worms you put on their neck(Revolution)? Had a pet friendly neighbor say this was "poison" but it really works good and had two cats on it live to be pretty old!

I've heard about that drug Revolution. My current kitten was a stray and was found by a family who took him to the vet. The woman who gave me my dear Casper to me told me that it's a pretty heavy duty drug and that applying that drug more than once a month can be lethal. So maybe that's why your neighbor said it was "poison"? Either way, I suppose we should always defer to experts.

Feeding my cat the dry food that my veterinarian prescribed made her throw up every time she ate. And she was not throwing up hairballs. She was throwing up food. So I looked for different dry foods that were easily digested, plus feeding her wet food. She is thriving on the combination. You have to really know your cat and what is best for them.

On wet food, I think 🤔 it’s worth it to get the Sheba or IAMS “ PERFECT PORTION” this is just one serving each time, ( no can to mess with !) I give one in the morning & one at night & this size they are well liked & it does not go bad usually because of one portion that is eaten & my Tobee cat 🐈 loves this Pate ! Of courses all flavor are good, but Tuna, Salmon, seafood! Is what Tobee likes best ! (( also do give around 1/2 cup of hard food at night)

Mine only get high quality dry food. Loki has food allergies so I have to be really carefull what I give him and the only hypoallergenic wet food available here, he just doen't want (he's a very picky eater) So both just get dry food. I do use food puzzles to feed them to keep them from overeating and they also have a drinking fountain to keep hydrated, that they often use. They were a little overweight at their last vet check up a few months ago but seeing as they're about to turn 9, they're in really good health and shape.

I have a geriatric cat who doesn't overeat. I free feed him dry food daily, plus he gets one small can of wet in the morning, one can of wet for dinner. He has bad teeth, kidney issues, hiatal hernia, blocked "back door" glands... He's still happy though! I take him to the vet monthly, they keep an eye on his hydration and weight. He's around 17 years old and has been steadily losing weight even though he keeps eating and things are coming out both exits as well as can be expected for his age. I always give him treats at least twice a day, and I try to make sure his treats are good quality, hydrating, nourishing, and of course tasty for him! Thank you for making this video! I agree each cat is different, and it's a matter of try and try again until you find the best diet for your specific cat. Just like people, we all have our favorite foods, just be careful with the portions of any favorite foods for any species 😁🐾🐾👍😸😉

My littermate Siamese rescue kittens. For my work I had to load up the dry feeder for a week. The firepoint male started eating his emotions. Even a neighbor looking in on them stopped cutting it. I got tired of cleaning up rails of unchewed dry food. Teeth are fine. Mine only get wet food 2x day and greenie treats to help "brush" their teeth. The polydactyl female will snub her nose at certain flavors. 24 hrs. My beautiful Blanket finally ate normal today. I hate caving into her preference 1st day.

I feed my cat 3 times a day. Breakfast is at 8:30am ish, Dinner at 5:00pm and Supper at 9:00pm. His cat food is simple and honest. The ingredients are: 70% chicken, 29% chicken broth and 1% vitamins and minerals. It offers three different meats: Chicken, duck and beef. I can see REAL shredded meat in the tins too. It also offers a chicken recipe with some pumpkin chunks added. He also has duck and chicken freeze-dried raw toppers on his meals. These are the bought foods that he eats. I boil him fresh chicken or turkey a few times a week as a healthy treat as well. A meal for him would look like: wet food topped with water for extra hydration and freeze-dried raw toppers. I rotate different meats for different days so that he doesn't get bored of them. He eats his meals in a raised, whisker fatigue free, porcelain bowl. It's called Necoichi. I wash this bowl after each meal so that it's ready and clean for the next meal. The water in his water bowls get changed 3 times a day too. I changed him to this new food 2 months ago, and it really has changed his life! His fur is glossy, his eyes are shiny and he plays 4-5 times a day each session lasting 10 minutes! When I remind myself that he's 11 years old, it's really hard to believe! 💙 He is overall much happier and energetic since switching him to this food. 😺

I mix wet (about 2 to 3 oz) and dry (1/4 - 1/3 cup) food plus 2 to 3 tablespoons of water for a stray cat that I'm feeding. I worry since it is getting so darn hot. I only get to feed her once a day around 12pm right before work. A few months ago my dad told me that there was a cat in our backyard that waited for him to toss out food scraps. After he told me I ended up looking online what cats should be eating and I had to stop my dad from giving the cat scraps of chicken and fish because they had spices on them >o< I do cash budgeting so I don't have much to spend on my new furry friend but I always try to make sure that she is fed and hydrated.

My cats (10 of them) get dry food in the afternoon but not a large amount and they are given it in their own bowls. They get tinned food last thing at night. We also have a water fountain which they all drink from. We do have one cat who would eat his own and everyone elses so he gets fed separately from the rest. That's working and he's slowly been losing weight and is now closer to the weight he should be.

My cat has stomach problems and vomits a lot. He didn't seem to like wet food, and I got tired of throwing away food he didn't eat. He now eats only dry food for sensitive stomachs. It's also less disgusting to clean up half-digested dry food. I used to use the mixed approach with my cats, but my most current cat is just not suited for that kind of feeding program. I give him 1/4 cup in the a.m. and 1/4 cup at night. He's a very big boy, and it seems to be an amount that suits him. He certainly hasn't put on weight on this regimen. He's 13 years old at present. He's also not starving, since he spends most of his time lying around and sleeping. He doesn't really work off a lot of the calories he eats.

I give 'em half can for morning and night and a lunch of dry food. They may get treats as well at some point of the day. They are happy and healthy. Recently had a yearly check-up. Things are good. They are loved and show their love. I am home almost always (no work or friends, etc). So they have plenty of time they can spend with me. They do get outdoors if the weather is not bad. We are in the country-side where it's all forest and a lack of streets/civilization. Although the people out here are still like city people with the tech and all that stuff. Computers/internet, cars, modern day appliances and tools, etc. But our cats do well here and are loved. Especially by me, the biggest cat lover in this house/family. To me they are family/friends, not pets.

My cat uses the combination diet, and does just fine. And there is plenty of water for him all the time. His kitty potty shows equal offerings of the wet and dry food results, and he doesnt hesitate to thank me with his loud, deep, purrrrrrrring. But, i have a couple questions, #1, why doesnt he like catnip, which is fine with me!, and #2, he has never hissed at anybody or other animals, and that leaves me puzzled. He is about 8.5 years (human), (102 cat) and i wonder if he was even taught to hiss by his parents? But both his parents and sister threw hissy-fits at people.

To answer your questions... 1. Contrary to popualr belief, not every cat loves catnip, lol. Just like humans, they all have different likes and dislikes. So some are just not interested. 2. The fact that your cat doesn't hiss suggests that he just doesn't have anything to hiss about. He sounds like a happy boy. 😺

@@ThePurringJournal thanks for answering! I have heard that catnip does to cats like marijuana does people, so, i guess that my "Black Friday" wants to be a "sober" cat! As for the "non-hissing" he is the only cat that either me or my late wife had that didnt hiss, even at us! Not even when i did the "TNR" when he was only a kitten, as he came from a feral cat family. When it was time to release him and his sister back to the "wild", his sister took off to wherever, but he didnt, even after coaxing him to go. So, i picked him up, and he immediately started purring, loudly for a kitten. And the rest is more or less history, he has been my buddy ever since, even more so since my wife passed away in April of 2020. I recently posted a video on KZbin of one of his favorite ways to give me more gray hair than i already have, and i just dont understand how he can traipse through things without knocking them on the floor.

We give them castor and pollox cat food gravy packets. Each cat gets half morning and night. Dry food is Acana. We spend a pretty good amount of money feeding our cats. I believe wet food is healthier but I have one cat that will keep us awake unless he’s fed more which is why I started feeding the dry food too. Their weight is fine. I was actually surprised the vet said the cat that demands more food could handle another pound of weight.

Almost EVERY cat I've ever seen or known would prefer running water to just a bowl. Those water fountains at the pet stores are crazy expensive!!!! So.....just go to the other side of the store, get a fish pump!!!! They can be purchased for cheap, 15-25 dollars, and then you can make your own fountain at home very easily!! Trust me, if you're a cat owner, you can do this!!! We have to been on our toes as cat people and we are typically an intelligent group!!! A friend of mine did this for her dog and it works beautifully!!!! She already had the pump from an old tank set up, she didn't have to spend a penny!!!

Yes, cat fountains are awesome! Our Maggie absolutely loves her fountain! ⛲ I don't doubt that they're expensive at pet stores. But they're definitely NOT expensive if you buy them online. The one we have goes for $20-$25 on Amazon and works great. The filters are inexpensive too. 😺

Thank you for this information. I have three cats. You give them dry food and drink a lot of water. It is true that there is some weight gain, and I also buy wet food sometimes, but I also try to diversify the food for them. I give them fish, meat or Cooked chicken, of course, but they don't like it. I don't know why, although many cats eat this. Can you answer my question, please and thank you? Greetings from Morocco

SIX assorted floofballs! Is that called a case or half a case? I'm far too busy looking at all the floofy pastel colours to bother typing three words into a popular search engine... called Bong, I believe. Doesn't matter really. The things that DO matter are the 6 floofy fellows who are so delightful and delicious 😋, gently jostling as they dine... without any serious conflagration occurring, which is quite a surprise. I must be used to Siamese pussycats or something... but I could have my head turned by these shorthaired people who are floofy people and they will always be floofballs in my heart ❤️... forever ♾️ slave for the pussycats 🐈🐈🐈❤️❤️❤️😼🥰🥴👍❗🤪 Prrrs prrrs prrrs prrrs prrrs 🥰❗

Unfortunately, cats don't do well with carbs. They may seem to have energy after they eat. But in the long run, they're going to get diabetes or kidney issues with dry food.

In general I think wet food it healthier however dry food has it's place and for my unique situation I believe dry food actually helped my kitten I was feeding her a wet only diet and was having issues with her being slightly underweight adding a little dry food in to complement her wet diet helped her thicken up to a healthy weight

Cat with a hairball? Wet food works great to loosen it up. As far as wet dry debate. Dry food every day with wet food every few days. Dry food if your cat has good teeth.

Most dry cat foods have carbs, but eventually it will affect your cat With kidney issues or diabetes, You might want to just stick to wet foods, but make sure it doesn't have any wheat or corn by-products Or look for cans that's say no grains .

Heya! I know this is an older video, but your claim that kibble cleans a cat's teeth is an outdated myth. It sadly doesn't do that at all. So, yes, kibble is easier and cheaper, but definitely doesn't do much for dental hygiene.

How can this video claim that dry cat food helps a cat's teeth? This is 100% false and a myth dry cat food is high in carbs which is a sugar that turns to plaque which turns to tarter! Meat does not do this.
