My cat gets a 5.5 oz can of wet food daily, and some dry food when he wants it. Cans are only about $0.40 each if you buy the 24 packs. I've read in many places that dry food is bad for cats because they shouldn't really be consuming that many carbs and that much dry mass (carnivores don't drink much, some of their water is supposed to come from the wet meat they eat). In addition, my cat doesn't need to be eating anything that is primarily corn. **** corn.
Anyway, I spend more money each week on locally roasted coffee and bread from the bakery than I do on cat food.
