Why does my cat prefer Sheba cat food over Friskies or 9 Lives?

Hi and thanks for posting on Boop by Petco! Sheba brand is a slightly better formula than the Friskies and 9 lives. It may also be that the Sheba brand food is more palatable to her than the others. Like people, cats can have variable tastes so it may be that she just prefers this brand over the others.

Are Sheba wet cat food can feeding guidelines accurate for my cat?

I would recommend following the guideline on the can to start. Usually it is an overestimate of the required calories. If your cat seems to be losing or gaining weight you can then adjust how much food you are feeding. If your cat is on the thinner side you may want to start with more food and if your cat is overweight start on the lower end of the recommended amount of food.

What Royal Canin food is best for my active adult cat? Wet or dry?

Yes, I personally like Royal Canin diets. For her age, just the regular Adult food is fine. ( https://www.royalcanin.com/ca/en_ca/cats/products/vet-products?specialneeds=0ad835cc921d4d0cb3ee61a8cc461fbe&feedingperiod=78.3&filter=643ceeb4-c516-477f-96db-fd7ee1b41ec0 ) She can eat either wet or dry; whichever she prefers and what you can afford. Canned food can be very expensive if that is all you are feeding. You can also feed a combination of both wet and dry if you'd like. Feed her according to the directions on the packaging. If you do both wet and dry you need to make sure you don't overfeed her. She is already at her maximum weight so if you notice weight gain you will need to back off on how much you are feeding.

My cat is five years old. What's the best food for her health?

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! There are several diets available in the market as you have probably noticed. I personally prefer Purina, Royal canin and Science Diet foods as they are of high quality and have research to back up their use. Any of their variations should be good for Maddi. Good luck and have a great day!

What's the best food for my picky Bombay cat who likes chicken/turkey?
