Comparing Cat Foods

Types of Cat Foods
The three main types of cat foods are dry, soft-moist, and canned products. With today's advanced technology, all types of cat food products can be formulated to provide complete and balanced nutrition for your cat.

Dry Diets — Dry products consist of crunchy kibbles, which help reduce the build-up of plaque and tartar on a cat's teeth. Dry foods also have the advantage of staying fresh longer than soft-moist and canned products once the package is opened.

Soft-Moist Diets — Soft-moist cat foods generally offer higher palatability as compared to dry diets and are convenient to serve and store easily.

Canned Diets — These diets generally offer the highest palatability when compared to the dry and soft-moist products. Once a can is opened, unused food should be stored in the refrigerator.
