- Does anyone know if there is anything wrong with feeding only
- dry food to cats? I have two male cats, Kafka and Spock, and
- they are both healthy.
-
- I hated the smell of wet food, and someone suggested that, while
- they're young, try feeding them as little wet food as possible. So
- I did. Now they happily eat dry food all day. They are both about
- 3 years old.
-
- My question is, are there any side effects? They don't appear to
- have any urinary problems, as the litter box is plently full.
-
- Does this cause more, uh, solid waste? My cats do seem to go to
- the bathroom alot. I have to clean the litterbox daily, and
- friends of mine (with one cat) clean it every three to four days,
- and that's not even necessary with them.
-
- Looking for advice (please e-Mail me if possible).
