There's a lot of wrong, and terrible information being posted here. Unless you intend on brushing your pet's teeth daily, don't switch to wet food. Dry food is beneficial to the long term health of their teeth, will scrape off plaque and keep their dental health ideal throughout their life. I've been a cat owner for 38 years, I worked as a pet store manager for 8 years. If you want your pet to have it's teeth relatively white and healthy into it's senior years, do not put it on a wet food diet.

I had a cat live to 19 years old on a premium dry food diet his entire life. My mother in law swore by wet food for her cat, and it had maybe 6 teeth left at age 8, and they were brown and decaying. Just make sure the dry food contains a reasonable amount of taurine.

Excessive wet food can result in more urinal and kidney problems also.

A lot of previous posters will now blast me i'm sure, but i'd advise consulting with a professional veterinarian and not Gamefaqs and you'll find my information is accurate.
