Your cat is an individual, just like you are. This means that she will have her own unique needs and preferences, especially when it comes to something as personal as food choices. Both wet and dry cat foods offer nutritionally sound options, so how do you know which is right for your pet?
Your cat may have a strong preference for one or another, but generally there are a few reasons for choosing wet food or dry food. Very young and very old cats, as well as those who have dental issues and are unable to chew crunchy dry food, typically do better on a wet food diet.

The arrival of a new kitten in the household can be a wonderful experience for everyone. Being in a new environment, and the extra attention being given to him can certainly be overwhelming to your new kitty.
Cats have different personalities and it is often hard to predict how your new kitten will react to his new home. While some are quite bold and will easily feel at home the moment they step inside the door, there are those that become wary and fearful, especially when there are other pets around.
