Answer Hi. Please read over my past answers here: http://en.allexperts.com/q/Cat-Food-3490/indexExp_83830.htm
They contain quite a lot of information on food brands, why to feed truly premium foods, what to look for in foods, feeding schedule, and feline diet. To be perfectly honest, it's entirely too much information to fit into a single reply. lol In a nutshell, I highly recommend avoiding the big name commercial foods as they contain really cheap and unhealthy ingredients. I prefer by-product free, human grade, and grain free foods and have experienced fist hand the benefits of these foods again and again. I personally prefer feeding the Wellness, Nature's Prarie, and Innova foods in addition to raw. I only feed twice per day...never allowing cats to graze. They were meant to eat fewer large meals...which is a normal carnivore diet. Frequent small meals lead to problems later in life. If after reading over my past answers you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask!
I can answer questions related to feline and canine diet including questions regarding ingredients, by-products, nutrients, raw diets, brand named products, etc. I can also answer questions related to pet health, behavior, grooming, and general animal management.

Experience
I have done research on the relationship between feline diet and feline diabetes due to my personal experience in dealing with one of my own cats. I am a pet lover and always have numerous cats and dogs. I believe in feeding a high quality and by-product free diet. Diet alone cured my diabetic cat as well as either cured or significantly helped many others.
