Right now I have 9 pound Maine Coon 1.5 year old male that is refusing wet food. I have tried from Tiki Cat to Crave wet food. I think he likes the crunch of dry food.
I know an all dry diet is not good for cats. I have read the ways of hydrating them of water fountains, which we currently have, to tuna water, soaking food in water.
I have two questions on all this.
1. How are some other ways to keep a cat hydrated?
2. How much is enough when a cat is on a all dry diet? A few wet treats? Or a
teaspoon of pumpkin a day?
Our vet was just like don't worry about a dry diet at his age. And I wanted to say what about his long term health. And I know long term dry diet for males can lead to urinary problems.
