    Wellness Food Brands

    I use Wellness canned foods and have always been happy with them. I have 7 cats that love Wellness. I'm not concerned with the garlic content (partly because canned food is only a small portion of my cats diets and I rotate dry brands so they are never consuming much garlic anyway) although I do...

    Canned food leftovers?

    I hate to bring it up because I can't remember the details but there is a specific reason (possibly toxins getting into the food or something once the can is opened?) that I stopped leaving leftovers in the cans. I put the leftovers in a plastic zip lock baggie now.

    What are good/bad ingredients in cat food?

    I like to rotate brands every couple months. I avoid ingredients such as meat-byproducts, unspecific meat meals, beef tallow, unspecific fats (such as "animal fat"), corn gluten meal, soybean meal, artificial colors, flavors and chemical preservatives.

    Another take on the litter question

    The Dr.Elsey's Precious Cat litter is 99.9% (or something like that) dust free. Its a clumping litter and comes in several formulas including unscented. I've been very happy with it so far.

    Regular Adult Formula vs. Indoor Formula

    Indoor formulas are basically geared toward less active cats. Similar to weight control and senior diets.

    Canned or Dry or both?

    I feed both but more dry than canned. IMO, canned food is more appropriate and I would feed more of it if I could afford to.
