Is it better to give your cat a variety of brands and flavors of food or the same food all the time?
I know my question is a little confusing, but I was wondering will my cat like it if I feed him the same brand of food all the time or different brands? Also, should I feed him the same flavor, or is better to switch it up? Oh, and a lot of people say that "wet" cat food is not good for them and you should only give them that kind of food once in a while. How is it bad? I feed my cat about 3 packets or cans of wet food and nothing has ever happened to him.
Will switching to wet cat food be enough to prevent struvite crystals?
Im having a really hard time deciding what to feed my cat. He has had 2 incidences of struvite crystals - one with complete blockage over the past couple of years. He has always eaten dry food. Im torn between feeding the Urinary SO my vet recommends and trying him on an all wet food diet. A raw food diet is not an option. Id like advice from people who have been in this situation, and what your results have been.

How do you wash your cats food and water dishes?
I have a separate dish brush that I use for scrubbing the "grease" from the cat food off the dishes (ceramic). I wash them daily with at least hot water but every few days I use a bit of dish soap, is this ok? How do you wash yours, and how often? Thanks!
What is a good canned cat food that is healthy and not too expensive?
I feed my cat dry food, and she gets a couple spoonfuls of canned food every day. I use the Friskies dry food and canned food. I cannot afford the really good stuff. Does anyone know what kind of canned food and even the dry food, that would be good for my cat and not very expensive?.
What is the best brand of cat food a cat owner should feed their cat to prevent shedding?

Is it that cat food is bad for dogs or dog food bad for cats?
I have been told by many people that dogs can eat cat food and its ok but if cats eat dog food theyll go blind. Then, today, the lady who gave me my cats told me that cat food is bad for my dog but it is ok (but not recommended) for cats to eat dog food. Can someone please give me a definite answer so I can act accordingly? My dog loves eating my cats food and I saw one of my cats last night eating my dogs food.
How do i get my cat to eat wet cat food instead of dry cat food?
I have heard that dry cat food is bad for your cats health. My cat loves dry cat food and only eats a small amount of the wet cat food. I used to give her dry food in the mornings but now I have started to give her wet cat food as that would be the time when she is the most hungry. This morning she woke me up meowing becuase she was hungry and I fed her one of those small tins of cat food and she only ate half. An hour later she still didnt finish it. I gave her a small pile of dry cat food and she ran straight over and ate it. I dont think it is enough food for her to be eating only one small tin of cat food a day (half in the morning, half at night). She is already small and although her weight is okay, she really doesnt need to be any thinner.
My cats been eating dry cat food all her life. She WONT eat canned food. I can barely even get her to eat a cat treat. lol. I dont think not eating wet food would harm your cat. Theyre kinda like small humans. They like some food and others dont eat all kinds of stuff....anyways. I used to have this cat that would just eat anything. Twinkies was his favorite. lol. Go figure.
Is there any difference between kitten food and adult cat food?
Adele
My kitten is 20 weeks old approx and i was just wondering what the differnece is between kitten and cat food. Is it just the texture that is different or does it have extra proteins and stuff like that like that?
Magda
Hi! Kitten food is slightly different then adult food. It contains more protein and more nutrients because the kitten is growing. Some brands also contain some antibodies. You should be feeding it kitten food until its one years old. The size of the kibble is usually a bit smaller too (also brand depending though).Just keep in mind if you have any other cats in the home that are 7 years or older they absolutely should not be eating the kitten food. Senior cats cannot process the protein as well and it can cause problems with their liver.

Kitten food has more protein and nutrients that kittens need and kitten food can also be fed to pregnant and nursing moms to give them extra nourishment for her and the babies. Adult cat food doesnt have the extra nutrients kittens need in their first year of life. They can eat it and be healthy but kitten food is best until they are a year old and even as they grow to adults kitten food is good for them. I have 2 cats and 2 kittens and only buy kitten food bc thats all any of them prefer.. i guess its the taste they like..its also ok to give your cat or kitten a little bit of milk every now and then. giving them milk everyday wont hurt them but it makes them poop more and messier.
Brigida
Kittens are not just miniature cats. Kittens growth and development need extra protein, fat, vitamins, and minerals to get the right start in life. The extra protein is needed for growth and development of any kitties. I think all these combination are covered in this cat food that i am giving to my kitties since they born >>>> http://www. agritura. com/index. php/cat/c3…

The fat and protein levels are different as is the ash levels. There are debates as to whether or not this is really necessary or just a marketing thing. Id rather see you feed your kitten excellent adult cat food than mediocre kitten food anyday. Evo, Wellness, Merrick, Fromm, Origen, Go! etc.. Ask around as to what is available in your area.
Bennie
Dry kitten food often has a smaller kibble size that is easier for them to eat. Most kitten foods also contain more protein than adult foods. Ultimately, age or condition specific foods are little more than a marketing gimmick. In reality, cats of all life stages need lots of protein from a meat source and they dont need grains in their diet. Theyre obligate carnivores and, as such, arent designed to digest all the junk thats in most commercial foods. I recommend that you consider switching your kitten to a high protein, low carb and grain free wet food diet. The article linked below goes into great detail explaining cat nutrition and the importance of a species appropriate diet. There is also a section on commercial foods that lists several great brands for you to choose from. Personally, I feed my cats Innova EVO and Wellness grain free wet foods, and highly recommend both. http://catinfo. org

Why is cat food bad for dogs to eat?
Eloisa
My pug will eat the cat food instead of his own food anytime our backs are turned. Vet says not to let that happen but why?
Debi
I am a pug lover also!! but the reason it is bad for them is for several reasons, it will make them overweight( which is too easy for pugs), and it doesnt have the nutrients for a dog. that would be like feeding your cat hampster food, it just isnt made for them. I can tell you why it is so irresistable to them, its the flavor and smell, to them its like leaving a bowl of people food on the ground. what i do is keep my cats food at a higher level, i have a special shelf just for his food where my pugs cant get to it
Cortez
Its ok to feed a dog cat food (my 15 year old yorkie has never eaten anything else. But you cant feed a cat dog food as it hasnt enough protien. As long as it doesnt upset his stomach it will not harm him.
Eleanor
The cat food wont necessarily harm your dog in and of itself, but it doesnt carry the nutrients your dog needs. Dog food is designed to deliver the things that dogs need - just as cat food is designed to deliver the things that cats need. If your dog fills up on cat food, it wont eat its own food, and therefore will miss getting proper nutrition.
Devona
It is very high in protein and will make then throw up
Armanda
It doesnt hurt them but it can make dogs very fat because the protein and fatty acids and other nutrients in the food makes them gain wait. its not made for dogs anyway. in the long run it could kill your dog if thats what your feeding it but otherwise it wont hurt them. my dogs get into the cat food alot but they dont get it enough to harm them. try keeping the cat food off the floor. put it up where the cat can reach it but the dog cant. the stuff isnt healthy for them.
Cruz
It makes them throw up. It makes the dogs I ever had do that.
Elna
Ive heard that cat food is formulated for the cat needs which are different from dogs and the extra/different ingredients can be harmful. Cats are true carnivores. They have several unique nutrient requirements—some because of a lack of certain enzymes. So if you feed dog food to a cat for a significant period of time, it may develop nutritional deficiencies that result in blindness, weight loss, and eventually death.
Jeane
Cat food is much higher in protien than dog food.
