We adopted two one year old females on Saturday, our first cats. So far as recommended by the rescue, we have been giving wet food (half a sachet each) in the evening, taking it away after an hour or two if uneaten and leaving down dry food and water the rest of the time.
Questions: should they have 24 hr access to dry food or should we limit that as well? Wanted them to be able to eat when they want as they adjust to us, but not sure it's a good idea long term.
Also, what are good and bad brands? We are using Purina Dry for neutered cats and Felix pouches at the moment.
Oh, and a litter question. We are using the wood pellet type, so far scooping poo into nappy sack and binning, wondering what to do with the rest. Bin? Compost bin? What do other people do? Thank you.
