Moist Food: The Cherry on Top Your Pet’s Dinner

If you’re someone who thinks plain kibble might be boring for your pet, you’re not alone. While kibble is a nutritional option for your cat or dog, it’s easy to wonder if your pet would like to switch it up a little sometimes.
Luckily, there’s an easy solution to ending food boredom: moist food! With wet dog food or wet cat food and multiple ways to use both, it’s easy to give your pet’s meals an occasional kick and keep them coming back for more.
Whole Meal
One way that you can feed moist food is probably the most obvious and it’s feeding it as your dog or cat’s whole meal. In most cases (and in all cases with Earthborn Holistic), wet food is made complete and balanced which means it’s adequate enough to be fed as your pet’s sole nourishment and that the food gives your dog or cat all of the nutrients it needs (if you’re curious about how to tell whether or not your pet’s food is complete and balanced, you can read this blog post about how to read a pet food label for more detailed information).
Topper
If you’re not wanting to switch from kibble entirely, you can also feed moist food as a topper. To do this, pair it with your pet’s favorite kibble and simply put some of the moist food on top of the kibble.
A main advantage to using wet food as a topper (or, to be discussed next, mixers) is the increased palatability it adds to your pet’s food. If you have a picky pet who sometimes just doesn’t feel like eating, it might be worth a try to incorporate moist food into their meals every once in a while to mix it up a little and get them excited about dinner time.

Mixer
Using moist food as a mixer is very similar to the idea of using as a topper, but in this case you actually mix the moist food into the kibble. If your picky pet still isn’t eating all of their food with moist food as a topper, mixing it all together may help your cat or dog to eat more of it if it’s covered in the moist food.
Frozen Treat
Another fun way to switch it up for your pet without making a commitment to switching their food entirely is to make frozen treats out of wet food. To do this, find an ice cube tray or mold, pour or scoop some of the food into the tray, and then freeze for a few hours before serving to your pet.
We have a tried and true method using our cat moist pouches, but the general idea works the same with wet dog food or our canned cat food as well.
Depending on the size of your mold, you can make quite a few treats to last you a while! This also allows you to switch up flavors more often to really make your pet think you’re treating them to something different.
