It aint healthy for the cats though
Tell me more?
My cat refuses almost all wet food, but multiple vet demands say we need to provide more moisture. Churu is mostly the only thing we've found. The ingredients seem... relatively okay (versus most).
Out cat used to throw up all wet food so we also supplemented with cat lickies. There are numerous brands available, I have no idea why they have to be called "Churu" now. That brand doesn't even exist here.
I assume you've tried shredded/gravy wet foods? In my experience they're much more popular than the patés. My understanding is your vet is totally correct: it's really important for cats to get moisture from their food, so it's worth it to keep trying to find something your cat will eat!
