Should I feed my cat wet or dry food?

Both have distinct benefits. Wet cat food has a high moisture content (around 70–80%), which is vital for hydration and supporting urinary tract health. Dry cat food is convenient, cost-effective, and its crunchy texture can help support dental health by reducing plaque build-up. Many owners choose a "mixed feeding" approach to get the best of both worlds.

How do I choose the right food for a kitten

Choose a dedicated kitten formula—like those from Royal Canin or Purina Pro Plan—to provide the high protein, calories, and DHA essential for rapid physical and brain development. Ensure the food is labelled for "growth" to get the necessary minerals for strong bones, and consider a mix of wet and dry textures for hydration and dental health.

When should I switch my cat to senior food?

Most cats are considered "senior" once they reach 7 to 10 years of age. You should consider moving to a senior-specific diet when your cat’s activity levels slow down or when they require extra support for aging organs. Senior formulas are specifically designed with highly digestible proteins to maintain muscle mass, lower phosphorus levels to support kidney health, and added glucosamine or omega-3s to aid joint mobility and comfort.

What is the best way to transition my cat to a new food?

Cats have sensitive digestive systems and can be "fussy" eaters. To avoid upset stomachs, gradually mix the new food with the old over 7–10 days. Start with 25% new food and 75% old, slowly increasing the ratio until the transition is complete.

Enhance your cat's wellbeing with more than just a bowl of kibble:

• Water Fountains: Encourage your cat to drink more with flowing water, essential for preventing urinary issues.

• Dental Treats: Support oral hygiene by helping to reduce plaque and tartar build-up after every meal.

• Cat Litter: Pair a great diet with the right litter—from clumping clay to eco-friendly tofu options.
