Just wondering how you guys balance the mix of these. Our cats looooove wet food, but keep it as a treat for every now and then. Have to keep the wet cat food in a plastic sealed container as our cats will tear through the box they come in and dig their way through haha.

We only feed dry food.

I fed my cat 1 scoop of dry food in the day, and half a can of wet food at night.

Wet food twice per day portioned by weight of the cat, and then an automatic feeder gives them a little bit of dental health dry food that dispenses at noon and midnight to keep them from getting hungry and scratching my toes.

We feed them primaly wet food 3 times a day. But if we are away over 9 hours, we give them dry food in toys to find.

All three of them gain weight easily, so we have to control their food intake

Dry food in the mornings and wet food at night. Never have any issues with weight and my cats always live long, leisure filled life's.

2 cats.

Their automatic feeder spits out ~10 grams of dry food 7 times throughout the day. They mostly worked out their own system for sharing and taking turns. I often manually give one more if one of them complains. The small portions helped with competitive over-eating and vomiting.

Then at night they get about 25 grams each of wet food. So a 5.5 oz. can lasts 3 days.

Fill dry food in the morning (for the day), wet food after I get home from work (night).

Never. Strictly raw food.
