Our pets are like people when it comes to food. Some have special needs that require a specific food, some pets are picky eaters, like us they have their likes and dislikes. Groucho is a healthy 6 year old neutered male who simply will not touch canned food of any kind. On the advice of our vet, he eats Iams weight control and loves it! Occasionally he gets other food like Purina Indoor Cat formula and gobbles it right up. He loves fried chicken and the gravy from beef stew, both occasional treats. Choosing the right food for our sweeties comes down to individual choice. We know our cats...their likes, dislikes, preferences. We all want our companions to be healthy, active (well, to a point), and happy. The best food for one kitty may not be right for another. It's up to the individual owner to determine what food is best for their cat.
