I had friends of mine nearly convinced to switch their kitties to wet food. They've been feeding dry SO food. None of their current cats have nor have had urinary issues. I'd convinced them that at least wet and when finances allow grain free food would be better for their kitties if hey are hoping to prevent UTI's and other urinary issues. They were even adding water and/or broth.
Well today they took one of their kitties to the vet for a check up because they thought he had a cavity. He doesn't. The vet managed to convince them that because their kitty has inflamed gums that the dental kibble would be the best way to go.
I feel like I'm beating my head against a wall. Ugh ugh ugh.
I know we have plenty links here about why kibble is bad and why kibble in general doesn't do anything for dental health. Does anyone have any links specific to the uselessness of dental kibble? I feel like I'm starting over again and it's been about a year since I first started this, 6 months ago they started incorporating wet and then about a month ago they were actively working to move to 100% wet. :fust
