I only give my cats wet food if I need to give them a pill or I'm in a very charitable mood. I leave dry food out for them and they do fine. Comment #1 Goldie from Wisconsin - The only reason I can think of is that the hard food helps to clean tarter off of the teeth. I had a cat that had to go in once a year for dental cleaning, but I always fed him dry food, but I wet it down. The vet told me that if I fed him canned food, I would probably have to bring him in more. Comment #2 Turtle from Lily Pond - You're so right about dry food being better for the teeth. Don't be fooled, though, and I don't know why your vet didn't tell you, your pet's teeth will still need cleaning at some point. ;-) Comment #3 Whiskers from Guest Room Bed - As long as your cats get plenty of water, then dry food is the better choice. It's less expensive and, has been pointed out already, better for their teeth. Comment #4 Alice Jones (70.100.224.27) - Sorry folks! Dry food helping to prevent tartar is pure myth. Even if YOUR vet has fallen for it...it's a bunch of bull. Check out further resources and studies and you will see! Dry pet food companies LOVE this myth. Comment #5 iris Cohn (24.47.80.246) - My 16 yr old cat is drinking and urinating HUGE amounts, He eats mostly dry food and a little canned. Comment #6 Connie from Concord (24.63.37.188) - Wed Apr 30 09:30:56 2008 I have no idea when these were posted, and I'm not a vet or a doctor, but based on my experience, a cat that is excessively thirsty and urinating frequently most likely has diabetes.
