Hello cat parents of mumsnet!
I'm after some advice pls - my 1 yr old BSH calico female (cat tax included of course!) has been fed a mix of wet/dry food since we got her at 3 months. She's settled on Scrumbles pate and McAdams dry food.
Unfortunately over the last few months she has become quite constipated, resulting in vets trips and enemas. Vet couldn't identify a reason, just said to make sure she's drinking water, which she is.
I'm wondering whether it's ok teeth and health wise just to feed wet food, as I think it might be the dry food clogging her up? At the moment she has 1 tin of wet split over the day (so half in morning and half in evening), and a bowl of dried which she grazes on over the course of the day. She always finishes her food.
I'm concerned that her dental health may suffer if I stop the dried, as I've read it's good for removing plaque. Is that right?! Or would some 'Dentalife' treats every day help with that?
Thanks so much!
