Question
Hi what is the best wet food you recommend for a cat that is about four years old? How often should I give her wet food? Also waht isthe best dry food you recommend?
Thanks so much, Dan

Answer
Hi - It is best to feed more Wet than Dry food per day - to prevent kidney disease...
YOU wouldn't believe how many cats pass away from kidney failure.
So give 80% Wet and only 20% dry per day:
My favorites are:
Innova
Wellness
Merrick
Evangers
Solid Gold

Also don't forget 1/2 to 1 full teaspoon per day of NuVET Plus -
give the dog powder - it tastes BETTER than the cat one- the products are the same.
Call 1-800-474-7044
Tell them Pet Nurse Marie said you can give the dog NuVET powder to a Cat- they will explain.
HOPE this helps...
here is the web site for NuVET vitamins...
