Cat Forum / General Topics / November 2005Best food?
I'm sure this will get some replys and spark some debates. What are the best cat foods for nutritional and health values? Canned and dry. I got my Stevie at the Humane Sociaty of Santa Clara County and they adamently recommend Royal Cainen- dry Wellness- can Looking forward to your responses. Thanks!! Eb  SignatureEric Bolvin www.BolvinMusic.com 408.236.2009 : Royal Cainen- dry : Wellness- can Both good, nut I am not sure there is a "best" for all cats. I choose from what's available at Petsmart, because they have a store nearby. I feed mostly canned, only occasional dry. > I'm sure this will get some replys and spark some debates. > What are the best cat foods for nutritional and health values? Canned > and dry. In general canned is prefferable to dry, but dry does have some dental benefits. So my choice is to feed 80 - 90% canned and 10 - 20% a dry dental diet. I think there are several good brands, I'll stay out of that one (for the most part) : my choice is to feed 80 - 90% canned and 10 - 20% a dry dental diet. I thought all dry had some dental benefit---for myself though I won't give up brushing in favor of chewing pretzels :) --- but is there one especially formulated as "dental"? >: my choice is to feed 80 - 90% canned and 10 - 20% a dry dental diet. > > I thought all dry had some dental benefit---for myself though I won't > give up brushing in favor of chewing pretzels :) --- but is there one > especially formulated as "dental"? Yes, there's Science Diet Oral Care, Hills T/D and I beleive Friskies has one as well. They basically use bigger chunks so there's more contact between food & teeth. T/D also has a different type of fiber that's supposed to have some scrubbing effect. Probably all dry does have some dental benefit, my cats had fewer dental issues while they were eating 100% dry. But other issues caused my to change to canned, so I try to preserve some dental benefit by using the bigger chunk dental foods. Our cats have moved onto Olli lately www.ollipetcare.com The actual meat content in the biscuits seems far higher than others and we've noticed a real personality change for the better in one of the cats since she moved onto eating them >>: my choice is to feed 80 - 90% canned and 10 - 20% a dry dental diet. >> [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > change to canned, so I try to preserve some dental benefit by using the > bigger chunk dental foods. |
