should I feed my 9 month old kitten wet food?

1 Answer

Answer :

I am sure I could feed my kitten wet food because wet food can help with hairballs and can be a good source of water especially because most cats don't drink a lot of water.  My kitten is a Maine coon and has a ton of fur so wet food can help him digest hairballs.
