1. Advantages of Wet Pet Food 1. Comprehensive Nutrition and High Value
Wet food products contain more poultry, seafood, etc., which are not only a good source of animal protein, but also rich in trace elements, vitamins, minerals and amino acids, and the protein digestibility of wet food cans can be as high as 88% or more. 2. High energy and fresh products
Pet wet food, such as pure meat canned food, has a relatively high unit energy. The energy per kilogram of pure meat canned food is as high as 25.08KJ, which can meet the energy needs of pets. Pet wet food is generally eaten immediately after opening, and it is fresher and more hygienic than dry food after opening. 3. High water content, which helps reduce pet urinary tract diseases. Pet wet food contains a high amount of water, much more than dry food. For pets who don’t like to drink water, wet food is a good way to increase the amount of water that pets drink. Because the water intake is increased, the pet’s urine is diluted, and the number of urinations is increased, thus reducing pet urinary tract diseases. 4. Good palatability The main ingredients of dry food are high-carbohydrate foods such as wheat, corn, and potatoes. The finished dry food produced has a single taste and poor palatability. The main ingredients of wet food are meat, fish, etc., especially the “fresh meat” formula currently advocated. Its state is relatively close to the food that pets hunt in nature, so pets generally have a high degree of acceptance and do not need to add additional attractants, flavors, etc. It is a good choice for picky pets or sick pets who don’t like to eat. 5. Easy to digest and chew Pet wet food is easier to eat and digest for elderly dogs, dogs with bad teeth or sick dogs. 2. Disadvantages of pet wet food 1. Vitamin loss Many nutrition experts have proposed that pet wet food must be processed through high temperature and high pressure, so the vitamin content in the product will be greatly lost, especially for B vitamins. No matter what method is used, the loss ratio cannot be reduced. The only way to make up for it is to add excessive amounts. 2. High cost Due to the high-end nature of the raw materials of wet food products, the cost of pet wet food is higher. For larger adult dogs, it is difficult to meet their large feeding needs. 3. Pet wet food should not be stored after opening. It must be eaten as soon as possible after opening, otherwise it will spoil quickly. 4. Increase pet tartar and cause gum problems. Feeding pets with dry food products, the granules of dry food can help pets massage their gums and wear away tartar. After feeding wet food products, some small particles of food will remain in the mouth, creating favorable conditions for the reproduction of oral bacteria, gradually forming plaque, and plaque attached to the roots of teeth, causing inflammation and degeneration of pet gums.
