There are numerous reasons to switch your cat over to dehydrated cat food, including a high-protein diet, and a meal that was prepared in a way that innately leaves the meat’s vitamins and minerals intact while whisking away moisture, but perhaps the biggest factor is the desire for a natural source of nutrition for your kitty. For instance, while kibble-style dry cat food may include healthy ingredients, they have been kneaded, baked, and formed into a uniform shape, while most dehydrated cat food literally looks like dry chunks of all-real fish, lamb, beef, or other healthy protein sources.
