When you open a can of cat food, do you need to refrigerate when it open? I wish you don’t have to feed pets dry & wet food.

You don't need to feed dry and wet.
In fact it's healthier to just give them wet.
Dry food usually has a lot of fillers and it's so dry it can hurt their kidneys.

What size are your cans?
Mine are 2.9 oz and they're barely enough for one cat for one meal.
I need 10 cans per day at that rate.

I can't find bigger cans but I wish I could, so they could share.
It would likely be cheaper (I have five cats.)


*Also yes, if it's open you need to refrigerate it.

Yes, open cans of cat food need to be refrigerated.

I hope you're able to enjoy some time with your cat.

I can really go for a Whiskas stir-fry
