Wet
Wet cat food, also known as canned, usually has 75%-78% moisture. Wet food comes in many different flavors such as; tuna, chicken, lamb, duck, and turkey. Although your cat still requires access to clean fresh water, due to the high water content, your cat requires less water on a wet food diet.
Much wet food has a small number of vegetables mixed into their ingredients, turkey and spinach are favorites in our household.
Wet food is a very close reflection of what your cat would be eating if they were living in the wild, not exactly, they do eat their prey raw, but a close reflection. Wet food comes in many different sizes and although it’s a more expensive diet than the dry food diet, it provides your carnivore cat with its main dietary source, protein. Due to its high level of moisture and protein, premium wet food is the best cat food that you can feed your cat, either alone or in combination with a dry food diet.
When serving canned cat food, make sure once you open it to always take the leftovers out of the can and place it in a dish before placing it in the fridge, never leave it in the can. Wet food generally lasts 3-4 days in the fridge and not a day more. After four days the cat food will no longer be at its best. Depending on your cat’s preference, you can either serve your cat’s canned food right out of the fridge, or some cats like their wet food to be warmed up a bit once taken out of the fridge.
