We had 2 kinds of dry cat food, one the cats would eat, one the cats would not eat. We didn’t know what the difference was so I went “Fine!”
Neither tasted particularly good to me, but the one they liked had a crunchy texture and the one they didn’t was squishy, like it was stale Corn Pops cereal.
There is another reason to use cat food beyond the superior flavor (on which I am just going to trust you): Dog food will often contain bone meal, which is fine for dogs, but indigestible for humans (and cats). Can clog up your guts.
I have heard (and it might be wrong) that cats can eat dog food with no ill effects. They just cannot survive on dog food alone because it does not contain the nutrients necessary for cats.
Yeah it amazes me that cats can get their entire vit D supplements from food. Meanwhile humans should not go without sun. Supplements alone do not cut it
Not dog food, but cat food.

Between the two? I suggest the crunchy kind.

Remember when dog poop stopped being white?
That’s when they phased out bonemeal in dog food
1990 maybe? Now that you mention it I didn’t even notice until years later when Sarah Silverman did a song about it
I thought cat food also contained bone meal? They call it “ash content” or something like that.
OK, turns out they use it much less in dog food, but also to some extent in cat food. So it does just come down to the flavor.

C’mon Jordan! Name names! What’s the good stuff? I need to stockpile for…reasons.
Both were Iams! The crunchy kind is in the orange bag.
