Reviews of best cat food ?


Edit By:How To Pet
Q:Hello,

Is there a website available that lists the best cat food available.

Thanks
A:Here's Dr Lisa Pierson's website.




It gives you info about the best cat foods (all canned. She does not recommend kibble for cats), as well as instructions on how to prepare a raw diet. You will also find various health-related info.

The second link will take you straight to the food page.

Enjoy!
A:Thank you ChessGator for that link.

I would like my cats to eat Wellness and/or Felidae canned, and have tried feeding them that, but they won't eat it!

Any suggestions as to how to get them to eat? Currently I have one that will eat Wellness Core, but it is kibble, the other, who has kidney damage from a previous poisoning, will only eat PC Salmon, and Fancy Feast the fish varieties.

Maybe I am spoiling them too much. My foster Momma has no problems eating Wellness and Felidae.
A:Here are some tips for transitioning to wet food:

It took me almost a year to get my cat completely over to wet, no dry whatsoever, but it was complicated by his diabetes. If I can do it, anyone can!! The best tip I can give you is to start meal-feeding if you're free-feeding right now. A cat that is nibbling on dry food all day is not going to be hungry enough when you do offer some canned. In my case, I found that crushing kibble into a powder and sprinkling it on top of the canned at least helps a cat to recognize wet food as food. You can also get other "flavour enhancers" like freeze-dried chicken or liver that can be used to top-dress the food. Persistence is key. Too many times people offer their cat canned food once, it turns up it's nose, and from then on they say their cat won't touch it. My argument is that it's too important for a cat's health not to try harder! So good luck to you. Give it a try and let me know how it goes!
