Is dry food better for cats?

Dry food isn't better for cats than wet food, but it can be more convenient. If you choose a complete and balanced formula made with wholesome ingredients—and not too many fillers or carbohydrates—dry cat food can be a highly nutritious, healthy choice for your kitty.

Is it OK for cats to only eat dry food?

It is OK for cats to eat only dry food, provided it is a complete and balanced formula that fits your cat's specific nutritional needs. However, dry cat food does have a very low water content and it may be higher in carbohydrates, so some experts suggest supplementing it with wet food for better hydration and nutritional balance.

Do vets recommend wet or dry cat food?

Vets recommend both wet and dry cat food—it depends on which ones you ask and on the individual situation. While many vets prefer wet food over dry food for its higher moisture and protein content, there are many quality dry cat foods that can meet your kitty's needs and your need for affordability and convenience.
