Purina Veterinary Diets (Overweight Management) Feline Formula Thanks for the heads up. I guess that's the stuff that was next to the Purina Pro Plan at PetSmart. My adopted strays get high quality dry cat food, put into zipper sandwich bags, stored in the refrigerator, and then soaked in water before the small bag is used for feeding. Currently that's Purina Pro Plan. This last time I bought the long hair formula. I figure the only difference is maybe it has more fiber to help with furballs. But I guess they are all pretty much the same (given the same category). That method works well here. The bag of high quality dry food is separated into zipper bags that are stored in the refrigerator. When ready to be used, I grab a bag and pour half of that into a new bag. Put the other half back into the fridge. Add warm/hot water to the new bag that is half-full of food. Swish, burp, and zip closed. After soaking, if the food doesn't have enough water, at any time more water can be added and mixed. Later, the half bag still in the refrigerator is used in the same way. And repeat for all of the other bags full of food. The last food had salmon as its main ingredient. Stirring in a small amount of premium albacore tuna (regular leftovers from one of my favorite meals) helped. This one says tuna is the main ingredient. I'm sure it's not premium albacore, but hopefully they will like it better than the salmon. buglady take out the dog before replying |

Considering the fact that Science Diet (and maybe all others, I don't know) bags are nowhere near airtight, I guess that is overdoing it. But that's the way I like it. After it's wet, it probably should be stored in the refrigerator. |

When buying new bags of dry food I immediately transfer it to airtight container(s), but I think refrigerating it is a waste of time and money |
