Can we keep it? PLEEEEASE!
knave:
I never feed my cats wet food. I use a Avoderm dry food and it's awesome for the cats...even better than some of the other high end cat foods.
ChadTower:
Your cat needs something solid to chew on regularly. That's how they clean their teeth and keep them strong. In the wild they'd be chewing on bones to do that - if it's all wet food they aren't getting proper dental care. Even if it's mostly wet food, causing the cat to ignore the dry food because the wet food is tastier, you have to ensure the cat exercises its teeth regularly by chewing on something hard. Sometimes the only way to do that is to keep the wet food limited enough that the cat will eat dry food out of hunger.

We have 3 cats, 2 of them are 8 years old and the other is 18! They've had nothing but dry food their entire lives. We just leave plenty of dry food down and they eat when they want. Actually we leave the dry food up, out of reach of the dogs.

Out of curiosity, he's not a brown and white kitty is he? I was wondering if the two I got from the pound were long lost relatives....Dexter and Emilio are definitely two of the most retarded cats I've ever seen....either that or they're smarter than I think they are.
They break every mold I've read about on here about how elusive cats are. These two will NOT leave you alone. Sit down, they're in your lap....or, at least they try to be. You see, they apparently can't sit / lay down, or forget they have claws, or something...because what they proceed to do is dance around on your lap, trying to figure out how to hang on, before tumbling out of your lap. Then it's hop up, try again, fall out....repeat ad naseum.
Stories I could tell. When we brought them home, the shelter says leave them in their cardboard containers while you're out of the house ( this was the next day) since they're not used to it. Well, we did that - only to get home and find that Emilio had chewed his way out of his container, opened his brothers, and the two of them were now lying happily on the table. They did that for weeks: a friend said "spray the table with bleach, they won't get up there again." Wrong. Sprayed the table with bleach and these two idiots got up there and rolled around in it, sniffing it like catnip. Crisco, same thing (they actually licked the Crisco off the table).

When I brought one of my cats home from the pound, I put his box in the bathroom, where there also food, water, and a litterbox, and the second I left the bathroom and closed the door, his paws were reaching under the door trying to figure out how to open it. So I open the door and he comes running out, he runs back and forth all over my house and then tackles my other cat. I guess he was sick of being confined to a small area and he definately had no fear of new people and places.
