Interestingly enough, after looking at the
dry food info, the dry they like has less

me that it's better for their kidneys and
urinary tract to eat the dry that they like
more than the wet that they like. What do
you think?

If the cats are healthy and without kidney issues, I'd rather feed a
higher phosphorus canned diet than lower phosphorus dry food. There is
no evidence that somewhat higher phosphorus levels than the Hill's Gods
dictate note intense sarcasm here ;-) are harmful to healthy cats.
It's becomes a concern with kidney failure (which may be postponed or
avoided by feeding a canned diet). If you look at the phosphorus content
of a mouse, it's higher than cat food. The constant state of dehydration
that occurs as a result of feeding dry food is, IMO, much more harmful.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."

- W.H. Murray
