Reply #3: first, thanks so much for adopting an adult cat -- the older ones

always really need someone to save them.

Hm. I agree with the first poster that you just need to put the food up higher, and try not to leave wet out at night or when you're not around. Just feed your kitty wet food when you can be nearby so the dog doesn't get it. I have five cats, and I generally split just one small can of Fancy Feast between them once a day. Maybe I'll crack open a second one if they seem particularly hungry. So your cat probalby doesn't need a lot of moist food, at least not all in one sitting.

Cat food is usually much higher in calories than dog food, so aside from the cost issue, which with I greatly sympathize, your dog might start to gain too much weight.
