Wet cat food is one of the most nutritious meal options for cats and kittens. While dogs are omnivorous, cats are carnivores, which means that they require meat in their diets. Wet cat food contains a high animal protein content, which is important for all carnivores. The greatest canned food advantage, however, is its high moisture content. Water is vital to your cat's health. Since wild prey contains as much as 75% water, cats have evolved to acquire much of their water needs from food. If you do choose wet cat food for your pet, keep in mind that it requires refrigeration after opening and should not be left out all day the way kibble can be.
Consult with a veterinarian to determine your cat’s nutritional needs. This amount will vary depending on what your cat’s diet may need. Most cat food packaging offers a feeding guide on the back to learn what you should be giving your cat.
Wet cat food should be thrown away after one to four hours depending on the temperature. Never feed your cat wet food that has been sitting out or stored improperly.
