what band dry cat food you feed ?

I feed Purina in blue bag , tried indoor purina but they seem like the
blue bag stuff.I look on the back at the analiys of things & feed brand
that has most protien in it . Purina Kitten chow is only one I think
that has more .

Persia eats prescription food so what I feed her isn't very informative.
You'll get all sorts of answers to this question, from stuff you can only
get in a pet specialty store to home cooked meals. I figure as long as they
don't have specific health problems and like what you're feeding them, go
for it!

My cats loved Friskies, which is what they were fed before I got them.
However, they're both overweight, so my vet recommended Iams Weight Control.
That's what they eat now, and they like it fine. I scatter some Friskies on
the floor as treats a few times a day, and they like that too. They also
get a small amount of canned Friskies in the evening. It was only Waffles
who got that, but once I opened the Tuna and Egg, Pickles would push Waffles
away from his dish to get it, so now I give them both some. It's funny,
because in respect to everything except food, Waffles tends to push Pickles
around.

Michael, this is probably fourth on the list of subjects that will
cause, well not a flame wars, we don't do flame wars here, but let's say
a long discussion. It ranks just between 'indoor vs. outdoor', 'intact
vs. speutered(1)', 'claws left decently/humanely intact or "declawed"'
(it's clear to see which side of that debate I, and probably all of us
here, are on - but it's one of the things we're passionate about, that
being the one "hot button" troll to use).

I believe in feeding canned food. I won't go into the pages long
reasons why I feel that way, but here is a good, educational link about
the subject:

Warning, it's long and technically a bit difficult, but scroll to the
bottom of the page and you'll find *numerous* cites of very prestigious
personages who contributed to the article.


(1) For Jay, that's a contraction of "spayed" and "neutered" that we
use here to denote both/either "spayed (females)" or "neutered (male)".

I've always used "neutered" for both males and females, but "spayed" only
for females. Does anyone else?

Another word to use for both is "de-sexed", but I don't like that one
because I feel their gender isn't effected as that word suggests.

One of the reasons for the flame wars on this subject is the fact that many
people, including vets, believe cats should be fed only canned food because
it is better for their kidneys, while others believe they should only get
dry food because it's better for their teeth.
