Dry food is the worst between their diabetes risk and CKD risk.
Really? I give my cats dry food, but there’s no grain in it, all meat. Expensive, but worth it!
That reduces diabetes risk, but not CKD risk.
Cats evolved from desert dwellers and often don’t like drinking water, they rarely do so in nature and get most of their liquids from their food. If a cat only eats dry food and doesn’t drink enough kidney disease is just an inevitability. Of our 3 cats only one of them drinks water regularly.
Interesting. Well, I can confirm that my cats drink water, and a lot of it! One is nearly 13, the other 4, and they both drink multiple times per day.
