Wet Cats

Product Information

Both wet and dry diets have their benefits, and really it's up to you as a cat owner. In our general recommendation, you should be looking at a mix between both wet and dry while regularly feeding your cat twice a day. Food for cats in the prime of life, usually between one and seven years old, will be balanced and nutritionally complete, meeting all of an adult cat’s needs. The most common food intolerances appear to be colourings, sugars, wheat, milk and soya. Obviously not all pets are sensitive to these things, but if the effects keep re-occurring it’s best to consult your vet.

Budget-friendly cat foods often contain byproducts, a concentrated source of protein that's biologically appropriate for felines. Byproducts are repurposed ingredients that keep the cost of cat food down, says Dr. Korinn Saker, a board-certified veterinarian and associate professor of clinical nutrition at the North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine. They include parts of the animal other than skeletal meat that are still nutritious for cats, such as organs. While many cat foods are touted as free of grains, byproducts, or artificial preservatives, these diets have no proven benefit compared to other cat foods that meet AAFCO standards.

However, limited ingredient diets aren't always necessary unless your cat has food sensitivities. According to Saker, food intolerances can mimic some of the symptoms of food allergies, but food intolerances are typically limited to the gastrointestinal tract rather than a full-body immune response. Before transitioning your cat to a limited ingredient diet for digestive issues, talk to your veterinarian to rule out other underlying problems.

How much wet food should I feed my cat?General advice states that you shouldn't leave your cat's wet food out for more than an hour or two at room temperature. The reality is, it'll probably be left out longer than that. If your cat regularly leaves portions of wet food for long periods, try cutting down the amount of food you are feeding.
