Easily Chewable Dry Food
Hi,
Since our Snowy had some teeth out he stopped eating dry food. It is too hard to chew with his remaining teeth. He can eat kitty treats such as Temptations which I can crush with my fingers. Is there a better choice of dry food other than kitty treats that he might be able to chew? Thanks, Gary |

Thanks, Gary my jessie has just one good tooth left so i give her soft canned food pretty much all the time, she does give dry food a go but isn't keen as i dont think her previous mum ever gave it to her (or she woud not have had such awful teeth if she had). anyway jessie loves whiskas temptations, the crunchy ones with the soft insides, she purrs when you shake the box even, I think she swallows them whole or something but occasionally i hear her crunch one with her one remaining tooth. I think whiskas also do a soft version of treats in a little dark pink box just like the one the temptations come in, jessie not keen onthese so much but you coudl try them. bookie |

I think in many cases, they are essentially able to chew with their gums. My Bullwinkle had quite a few teeth out, and we do give him canned food (just because it's good for him), but he still also likes the dry food and is seemingly able to chew it effortlessly. Best regards, ---Cindy S. |

Cats don't always chew dry food, many just swallow it whole. Maybe just
look for something with small pieces. Rhonda Gary Brown wrote: Hi, Since our Snowy had some teeth out he stopped eating dry food. It is too hard to chew with his remaining teeth.

Thanks, Gary It's possible he's associating the dry food with the pain he previously felt before his teeth were removed. Like a PP said, canned food is all-around healthier for him. |
