Hello guys.
To give some background, I have an inside cat, previously outside, that I "adopted" around 3 years ago; she is supposedly 15 now.
Recently, I have begun to look at her food options since I can afford to feed her properly. A few months ago I switched her off a horrible store brand kibble to Innova senior cat food. I supplement her diet with wet canned food, 1/3 in the morning and 1/3 at night. I buy a variety of canned food brands, including friskies, authority, nutro/natural choice, blue, etc.
Anyway, since switching her to Innova, she seems to be a lot better off, better energy, happier, I can't describe it really. However, she is reluctant to eat the cheaper canned food varieties now that she gets decent dry food, which I can understand. But good wet food is expensive! Should I simply feed her less wet food, but in good quality? Also, how should I properly feed her the wet leftovers? Should I microwave it or stir hot water into it or something else?
Okay so I apologize if I went off topic a bit.. My main questions are: should I keep feeding her Innova senior food? Maybe another brand is better(blue, wellness?). (I can spend a little more on the dry stuff, and also I'm wondering if I should feed her a lowfat formula instead?) And should I keep rotating her wet food, or is there a good quality low-cost brand that I can try out? Thanks for any help.
