My one cat doesn't even bother to chew with most dry foods so the small size puts me at ease knowing he will be less likely to choke then on a larger or oddly shaped food. I also love the comments I get on thier coats being so soft and shiny. I just wish my one cat would stop asking to be feed when his bowl is empty. They just cant get enough!

  • Q:

    My 4 month old kitten is the cutest and sweetest baby ever but she is making me nuts. She meows for dry food so much that she refuses to eat the wet food she used to love. When I adopted her the foster parent advised she fed her dry food and wet as a treat (not premium wet food). I do not feed my other cats dry food because my older cat has kidney failure and IBS dry food will cause him to vomit. I feed my cats expensive premium wet cat food. Punkin was so cute begging for dry food I caved and began feeding her dry food as a treat in the other room. This process has failed because now Punkin only wants to eat dry food. I've tried once a day and that's not working. So I've removed the dry food out of the house. My problem is now Punkin is refusing to eat the all wet food. I've tried various brands and she will not eat it she only meows for dry food. I give her dry treats but I want her to eat a normal meal. Please help me I don't know what else to do? Should I continue to try different wet foods? I'm afraid my Punkin will starve!

  • Q:

    We have a 10 year old female cat that will vomit once or twice a week. We have had her checked out and she seems to be healthy. Her favorite food is the juice in Friskies Mariner's Catch. She doesn't eat the wet food but will lick it. Our other cat eats the wet food but leaves the juice alone. They both eat dry food but we would like to find something similar to the juice to feed the older cat. Are there any liquid foods that would be similar?

  • Q:

    How can I get my cat to eat wet food? I understand it can help with some medical issues later in life to have both wet and dry food. Both of our cats came to us as rescues at 4 months old. One, Fox - a Siamese cross, did not like wet food but learned to eat it after being forced to eat some due to an illness; He had an upper respiratory infection that almost claimed his life. He is on lysine now which helps but when stressed by our vacation last year he quit eating wet food and will not return to it. He is now 2 years old and healthy other than the need for lysine. We feed him a dry and wet that is corn and wheat free with no by-products. What can we do to get him to eat wet food? My routine involves wet food at 5 pm plus dry food at 10 or 11 pm overnight. All food goes up about 8 am until the evening. Both cats are healthy and in good weight.

    How long does dry cat food, in their bowls, stay fresh?

  • Q:

    I have two cats, and both eat Purina Cat Chow, no people food and no canned food. Being females, they are both relatively small. The smaller of the two, Domino, weighs between five and seven lbs. I don't weigh her between vet visits. She is very active and is allowed to go outside. She climbs trees, chases squirrels and stays very busy. She eats approximately one cup of Cat Chow per day. I fill their bowls once a day and they "graze" all day long. I have started giving her "treats" which are two calories each. What would you estimate her desired calorie intake to be? I don't want to overdo the "treats." My other cat weighs about 11 lbs. and doesn't like treats, so that is not an issue.
