Mine has CKD so he mostly eats wet, but his second bowl always has some dry and he snacks on it whenever the other becomes unedible.

I give them dry for breakfast, then wet with a little dry for texture when I feed them at dinner

Twice a day. Little buggers eat better than I do. But I also mix it 50/50 with water and make a kind of cat food slurry to force them into hydrating a little. And then I put a little dry food out late at night as an offering so they will let me sleep.

It sounds expensive but it works out to a little under $2 per cat per day in food.

Should be all wet if you can. It’s healthier for them.

My guy loves the dehydrated stuff but won’t eat it with water, so i mix it with raw kangaroo meat (which he also loves).

Picky little spoiled fucker won’t eat anything cheaper.

Ours gets a single can of wet food(the smaller fancy feast ones) for dinner and then about a quarter cup of dry kibble spread out in 3 smaller meals throughout the day(by an automatic feeder). He’s a former fat cat though so he’s on a strict diet and not allowed to graze.

Ours absolutely detests any form of wet food. If it’s not dry, he won’t eat it.

Once a week, in the weekend they get wet food. Rest of the time it’s dry food.

We used to feed our cats almost entirely dry food, with wet food as an occasional treat (no real schedule for wet, just every now and then).

But over the years we’ve had a number of cats that had health issues that were mitigated by switching to mostly wet food.

So now it’s reversed- almost entirely wet food with dry food occasionally (every couple of days or so). At least, for our indoor cats.

We also take care of a feral colony (many of which we’ve TNR’d), and those cats get dry food for logistical and cost reasons.

We do only wet food. Our last cat needed it to keep up hydration, and now we do the same with our new cats. Def more expensive, and not sure it’s worth it for healthy cats that drink enough.

Lemminary ,

We used to feed ours wet food once a day but then they got tired of that and decided they mostly wanted dry food, so now it’s once a week and they seem fine with that. You’d think a cat would enjoy more flavorful meals but… 🤷‍♂️

Dry from the automated machine during the day. Wet at night from a can

Fester ,

2 cats.

Their automatic feeder spits out ~10 grams of dry food 7 times throughout the day. They mostly worked out their own system for sharing and taking turns. I often manually give one more if one of them complains. The small portions helped with competitive over-eating and vomiting.

Then at night they get about 25 grams each of wet food. So a 5.5 oz. can lasts 3 days.

Dry food in the mornings and wet food at night. Never have any issues with weight and my cats always live long, leisure filled life’s.

Skua ,

Mine likes to graze throughout the day and would ignore the entire second half of any wet food I gave him, so dry food is the better option for us. I get him the best stuff I can and he gets stuck right in whenever I pour some more of it. I give him fancy wet food as a treat every so often too, just on the understanding that it will be somewhat wasted

4 cats. We feed them all wet food (Friskies/Tastefuls) morning and night, and have an auto-feeder for 3 of them. The 4th has a kibble addiction so the auto-feeder has a RFID tag which locks upon him getting close, and we feed him ~1/4 cup dry food early afternoon.
