You could even pick up a few cans of cat food for a few bucks; she may not be able to find water easily and the extra moisture will help her. While it is not the top quality food, it is still better than her scrounging around in the trash cans!

Cat food is very high protein. That's what cats need. Along with taurine and those other nutrients specific to cats.

Dog food is much lower protein. A dog who eats cat food consistently is stressing the kidneys, purging all that extra protein from the body. Not a good thing.

Let us know about the kitty!
