please help me for my 11 years old siamese with few remain teeth is grilled chicken healthy or dry food without chewing is better?
Hi Khashayar, I'm happy to offer some of my thoughts on this! Grilled chicken can be a healthy treat for cats, but it's not a nutritionally complete alternative to commercial cat food. If your cat is having trouble eating dry food, maybe try switching to canned food. Look for a pate or mousse, since those textures are smooth and your cat will be able to lap it up without chewing.
If your cat doesn't appear to be in pain while eating, there's no reason they can't still eat dry food with few teeth. Cats don't really chew their food, anyway, so as long as the pieces are small enough to swallow, it should be fine. I have an 11-year-old cat who has also had most of her teeth removed, and she doesn't have any trouble eating dry food.
Balanced nutrition is always the priority, so whatever version of nutritionally complete food your cat will eat is best. Hope that helps!
