Wet food or dry food? 🍽️🐱
Ask 10 cat owners and you’ll get 27 opinions. 😹
During the hotter summer months, hydration becomes extra important for cats — and that’s where wet food can really shine. Since cats naturally aren’t big water drinkers, canned food can help add extra moisture to their diet and support healthy hydration. 💧
Dry food isn’t “bad,” though! Many cats do well with kibble, especially when paired with plenty of fresh water, fountains, or even a little wet food mixed in. The best diet depends on your cat’s age, lifestyle, health needs, and personal level of food snobbery. 😼
Signs your kitty may need more hydration:
💦 Dry or sticky gums
💦 Low energy
💦 Decreased appetite
💦 Less frequent urination
