Frequently Asked Questions
The right amount depends on your cat's age, weight, and activity level. Use the feeding guide on the pack as a starting point and adjust to maintain a healthy body condition. A typical adult cat (around 4kg) needs roughly 3–4 pouches per day if fed wet food only, or fewer when combined with dry. For optimal health, we recommend mixed feeding. Always ensure fresh drinking water is available.
Yes. Mixed feeding is a great way to give your cat the best of both. WHISKAS® wet food adds moisture, tempting aroma, and tender texture cats love, while dry food offers dental benefits and convenience. When feeding both dry and wet food, simply halve the recommended quantities of each product.
Unopened pouches can be stored in a cool, dry place at room temperature. Once opened, transfer any uneaten food to a sealed container, refrigerate, and use within 24–48 hours. Don't leave wet food out for more than 1–2 hours at room temperature, as it can spoil — discard any leftovers and wash your cat's bowl regularly.

Why Do Cats Love Wet Food? The Secret's in Their Nature
They Were Born for ThisYour cat is, in the most wonderful sense, a creature of instinct. And those instincts — honed over thousands of years — are still running the show every time you reach for that pouch.Their wild ancestors were hunters. They caught prey. And that prey — warm, full of moisture, rich with the flavour of real meat — is essentially what wet food has always been mimicking. The high moisture content, the protein-forward recipes, the tender texture: all of it speaks directly to something deep and instinctive in your cat that says yes, this is right.When they go crazy for a pouch, they aren't being dramatic. They're being exactly who they are.The Smell Gets Them Every TimeA cat's nose is extraordinary. It's their primary way of understanding the world, including whether dinner is worth their while. Wet food has a rich, immediate aroma that dry food simply cannot match. The moisture in a wet pouch carries scent out into the air the moment you open it, creating that irresistible signal that says real food, right now. For your cat, it's the difference between a whisper and a shout.This matters especially for cats who are a little older, feeling under the weather, or simply selective about what passes inspection. The strong, appetising aroma of wet food often makes the difference between eating well and leaving the bowl untouched.It's the Taste of Real MeatYour cat cannot taste sweetness. What they can taste, with remarkable precision, is the deep, savoury richness of real meat and fish — the kind of flavour food lovers call umami.Wet food genuinely tastes better to them. The natural proteins, juices, and meat inclusions in a wet pouch deliver the flavour her palate is specifically built to seek out and savour. It's also why cats so reliably gravitate toward protein over anything else. When your cat turns their nose up at something that smells too starchy, they're not being fussy. They're doing exactly what their instincts tell them.Texture Is EverythingEvery cat owner knows: their cat has opinions about texture. Firm, long-held, non-negotiable opinions. And they're not wrong to.The tender give of morsels in jelly, the rich slip of a gravy-coated recipe, the satisfying pull of shredded meat — these aren't trivial details. They're part of what makes a meal feel like a meal. Some cats are devoted jelly enthusiasts. Others are passionate about gravy. None of them are wrong — they simply know what they like. Following their lead is not spoiling them. It's listening.A Natural Way to Keep Her HydratedCats have a naturally low thirst drive. Their ancestors lived in dry environments and got almost all of their daily fluid intake from the food they caught. This instinct hasn't changed. Many cats simply don't drink enough from a water bowl to compensate for a dry-food-only diet — not because they're stubborn, but because thousands of years of biology says water comes from food.Wet food delivers that hydration naturally with every meal. For most cats, this makes a meaningful contribution to their overall wellbeing — keeping them more comfortable, more energetic, and better supported in their urinary health day to day.Good for Their Urinary HealthConnected to that hydration story is something cat owners — especially those with cats who've had urinary issues — should understand.When a cat is well-hydrated, their urine is naturally more dilute. And dilute urine is protective — it's less likely to lead to the crystal formation and bladder irritation that can cause discomfort and vet visits. Cats on wet food diets tend to stay better hydrated than those on dry-only diets, which is one of the reasons vets often recommend wet food as part of a care approach for cats prone to urinary tract issues.It's not a cure-all, and every cat's needs are different — your vet is always the best guide for cats with existing health conditions. But as a daily habit for a healthy cat, feeding wet food is one of the most natural ways to support them from the inside out.Is Wet Food Better for Cats Than Dry?For most cats, wet food offers real advantages that go beyond taste. It's closer to what their body is designed to eat — high in moisture, rich in protein, lower in the starchy carbohydrates that don't align with their natural diet. It's more appealing to fussy eaters, older cats, and cats with sensitive appetites.That said, dry food has genuine merits too — it's convenient and suits cats who like to graze. Many owners favour a combination: wet food at mealtimes, dry as a complement. If your cat has specific health needs, their vet will help you find the right balance. For a healthy cat, a high-quality wet food like WHISKAS® cat food is, in their considered opinion, the obvious choice.How Much Wet Food Should I Feed My Cat?Getting the portions right means thinking about their age, size, activity level, and whether you're feeding wet food on its own or alongside dry.Kittens: Choose a kitten-specific wet food and follow the feeding guide on pack — their nutritional needs are quite different to adults.Adult cats (1–7 years): Most adult cats do well on 3–4 standard pouches per day when fed wet food as their primary diet. Adjust based on her size and activity level.Senior cats (7+): Older cats benefit most from wet food. Reduced appetite, dental sensitivity, and a higher need for hydration all point toward wet food as the best choice in their later years.Mixed feeding: Scale down wet portions and check the feeding guides on both products to avoid overfeeding.Always keep fresh water available, and when in doubt, check with your vet for a guide tailored to your cat.Feed their NatureEvery time you peel back a WHISKAS® pouch, you're speaking directly to something instinctive — a deep, ancient intelligence that knows exactly what nourishment looks, smells, and tastes like.Browse the irresistible range of WHISKAS® pouches for your kitty's next meal. Frequently Asked QuestionsWhy does my cat only want to eat wet food?Because it speaks to their instincts in a way dry food simply doesn't — it's higher in moisture, richer in aroma, more protein-forward, and closer to what they evolved to eat. Once they've discovered it, going back feels like a downgrade. Which, from their perspective, it probably is.Is it okay to feed cats wet food every day?Absolutely. A complete and balanced wet food diet can be your cat's primary daily food. Just look for products labelled "complete" to make sure she's getting everything she needs.Does wet food help with cat hydration?Significantly. Many cats don't drink enough water independently — they're built to get hydration through their food. Wet food naturally addresses this with every meal.Can I mix wet and dry cat food?Yes, and it's a popular choice. Wet food at mealtimes, dry food for grazing — it's a combination that works well for many cats and many lifestyles.Is wet food good for older cats?It's often the best choice. Older cats can become fussier eaters, may have dental sensitivities, and benefit significantly from the extra hydration wet food provides.

How long can I leave cat food out?
A cat’s eating habits are not always consistent, and many cat owners will be familiar with the sight of a half-finished bowl of food, or a meal with only a few bites missing. Sometimes this means your cat has had enough, but often they will return to the food later in the day for another helping. This brings about the question: how long can I leave cat food out? In this article, WHISKAS looks at when you should leave your cat’s food out, and when to clear it away.

How many times a day should I feed my cat?
Cats are often the king or queen of the household, with their adoring owners waiting on them hand and foot ready to meet their every need. For this reason, it can be tempting to feed your cat whenever they demand to be fed, rather than sticking to a feeding schedule. However, this isn’t always healthy for your cat, and can quickly lead to weight gain. So, how many times a day should you feed a cat? WHISKAS investigates… How often should you feed a cat?How often you should feed your cat depends on a few factors; for example, how old they are. Cats should be fed according to their life stage, whether that’s kitten, adult, or senior. It will also depend on your schedule and when you’ll be around to feed them. As cats have small stomachs – roughly the size of a ping-pong ball – they are best suited to eating little and often. Cats who are fed large portions may become sick after meals or put on weight over time. Therefore, a few smaller meals a day should work well for your cat instead of one large one. If you decide on set mealtimes, make sure to stick to these times of day, as cats like routine. If you are out of the house during the day, feeding once in the morning and once in the evening will be enough, as well as leaving a bowl of dry kibble out for your cat to snack on throughout the day. Although some cat owners choose to ‘free feed’ their cat and leave out food all day for them to graze on, this makes it hard to monitor how much your cat is eating and can lead to weight gain. This is especially true if you have more than one cat, as it is difficult to tell who is eating what. To combat this, consider feeding your cats separately as part of your feeding routine. How much food should I feed my cat?How much food you give your cat ultimately depends on their breed and lifestyle. For example, if you have an indoor cat, they might not need as much food as outdoor cats.If you feed your cat wet food, one pouch per mealtime should be enough. If your cat doesn’t eat the whole pouch, you could refrigerate it and when your cat is hungry again, gently warm the food back up in the microwave.However, if your cat repeatedly doesn’t eat all their wet food in one sitting, giving them dry food might be a better option, so they can return to the food when they want. If wet food is left out for extended periods of time it goes off and will have to be thrown away. If you only feed your cat dry food, make sure they have access to fresh drinking water, too. Most owners like to give their cats a mix of wet and dry food for variety. Monitor your cat’s weight carefully to determine whether you are feeding them the right amount. If your cat starts to look overweight, you will need to reduce their food intake. To assess your cat’s physical condition, use your hands to carefully feel around their ribs and waist. If it isn’t easy to feel their ribcage and you can’t easily see their waist, they are likely overweight. Always ask a vet for advice on helping your cat to lose weight so you can do it carefully and safely.Similarly, if your cat’s ribs, backbone and waist are visible, they might be underweight; you should ask a vet for advice on how to safely increase their weight. Usually pet food packaging contains helpful guidelines on how much to give your pet. Alternatively, you can use a cat feeding guide or ask a vet for advice if you are unsure. How often should I feed my kitten?As kittens have a lot of growing to do, they need to eat up to four times the calories per pound of body weight as adult cats. However, as their stomach is a lot smaller than that of an adult cat, kittens need to be fed numerous small meals a day to give them the correct calorie and nutrient intake.After kittens are weaned, at about six to eight weeks, they can start eating up to six servings of specially formulated kitten food. As your kitten gets bigger, you can gradually reduce the number of meals you give them per day until they reach adulthood, or around one year of age. How often should I feed a senior cat?Senior cats have different nutritional needs to younger cats and may require a special senior cat food. Older cats tend to spend more time relaxing and sleeping, so they do not need as many calories as younger, more active cats. They may need additional nutrients, though; for example, taurine. The WHISKAS® Senior range contains extra taurine to help your cat’s vision and heart, as well as zinc and linoleic acid for healthy skin and coat, and phosphorus to help their bladder function normally. With this in mind, you may find that your senior cat is happy with just one or two meals a day. However, you should always ask a vet’s advice on how best to feed them.

Fussy Cat Feeding Guide: What to Feed a Fussy Cat
Key TakeawaysFussy eating is common in cats and is rarely a sign of poor care. Cats are naturally selective eaters shaped by early taste experiences, routine and environment.Knowing what to feed a fussy cat often comes down to texture, aroma and temperature. Wet food’s stronger smell and softer texture frequently wins over reluctant eaters.Cat taste boosters and toppers can make mealtimes more enticing, but work best as a complement to a complete, balanced diet rather than a replacement for it.A cat not eating for more than 24 hours, or a sudden sustained drop in appetite, is always worth a prompt conversation with your vet. Image by Kari Shea on UnsplashIf you’ve ever watched your cat sniff their bowl, give you a deeply unimpressed look, and walk away, you’re in very good company. Knowing what to feed a fussy cat is one of the most common questions cat owners ask and the reassuring answer is that fussy eating is usually more about preference than a problem. Cats are naturally selective, highly sensory eaters shaped by early food experiences and the very particular instincts that make them so captivating to live with. With the right approach to food, texture and routine, most fussy eaters can be encouraged back to the bowl with genuine enthusiasm.Why Is My Cat a Fussy Eater?Understanding why your cat is turning their nose up at dinner is the first step to solving it. Fussy eating is often shaped by a combination of early taste preferences, environmental factors and, occasionally, an underlying health concern worth investigating.Taste and Texture PreferencesCats form lasting food preferences from kittenhood, and those preferences run deep. Unlike humans, cats cannot taste sweetness, but they are extraordinarily sensitive to aroma, texture and temperature. A food that’s even slightly too cold, too soft, too crunchy or carries a subtle smell they’ve decided they don’t like can be enough to earn a firm rejection. This is entirely normal feline behaviour and it means that what to feed a fussy cat is often a matter of finding the right sensory combination rather than finding a “better” food. Curious about what your cat can actually detect? Explore our blog on what cats can taste.Environmental and Routine FactorsMealtimes are more than just nutrition for cats, they’re a ritual. A busy, noisy feeding spot, a bowl placed too close to a litter tray, irregular mealtimes or an excess of treats throughout the day can all contribute to reluctance at the main meal. Cats thrive on consistency and calm, so small environmental changes can make a surprisingly meaningful difference.Could It Be a Health Issue?There’s an important distinction between a cat who has always been selective and one who has suddenly stopped showing interest in food they previously enjoyed. Sudden fussiness is more likely to signal something worth investigating - dental pain, digestive discomfort or another health issue, rather than preference alone. If your cat’s appetite has changed noticeably and recently, a vet visit is the right next step.What to Feed a Fussy CatWhen it comes to what to feed a fussy cat, wet food is often the most effective starting point. The stronger aroma, higher moisture content and softer texture of wet food tend to appeal far more readily to cats with selective palates than dry food alone. That said, every cat is different and the journey to finding what your cat truly savours is part of the purrr-fect adventure of living with them. Find out more about why cats sometimes never finish their food.Wet Food vs Dry Food for Fussy EatersWet food’s natural moisture and rich, meat-forward aroma closely mimic the sensory properties of a cat’s natural diet, which is why it so often appeals to even the pickiest of eaters. It also delivers hydration alongside nutrition - a real bonus for cats who don’t drink as much water as they should. Dry food, while convenient and beneficial for dental health, has a more muted aroma that some fussy cats simply find less compelling. Combining both formats can offer the best of both worlds.Trying Different Flavours and TexturesRotating between varieties - jelly, gravy, different proteins like chicken, tuna, salmon or beef - keeps mealtimes interesting and helps you discover what your cat truly loves. Don’t be discouraged if the first few attempts don’t spark immediate enthusiasm. Patience and variety are your most powerful tools when figuring out what to feed a fussy cat.Warming Food to Enhance AromaServing wet food at room temperature, or gently warming it for a few seconds, can significantly heighten its aroma and make it far more appealing to a reluctant nose. Never serve food that’s hot though - always test it before placing it down.Cat Taste Boosters and ToppersCat taste boosters are specially formulated additions (broths, flavoured gravies, creamy sachets or powder toppers) designed to enhance the appeal of your cat’s regular meal. Sprinkled or poured over existing food, a cat taste booster can make a familiar meal smell and taste more enticing, encouraging a fussy eater to engage with their bowl with renewed curiosity.The key is to use cat taste boosters as a complement to a complete, balanced diet rather than a substitute for one. Think of them as a finishing touch - the culinary equivalent of a drizzle of sauce over a nourishing meal. Used thoughtfully, they’re a genuinely useful tool in the fussy-cat feeding toolkit. Always check the label to ensure any topper you choose is appropriate for your cat’s life stage and existing diet.Best Cat Food for Fussy EatersThe best cat food for fussy eaters combines three things: appealing aroma, satisfying texture and consistent, high-quality nutrition. A food that smells wonderful, offers variety and delivers complete balanced nutrition is one your cat is far more likely to look forward to at mealtimes.When selecting cat food for fussy eaters, look for a range that offers multiple textures (in jelly, in gravy, as a loaf) and a variety of protein sources, so you can rotate and keep things interesting without compromising on nutritional completeness. The WHISKAS® wet food range offers a wide variety of flavours and textures crafted to entice even the most discerning cat, with complete nutrition at every serve.Tips to Encourage a Fussy Cat to EatSmall, practical changes to your routine and environment can make a noticeable difference for a fussy eater. Here are the most effective adjustments to consider.Feeding EnvironmentChoose a quiet, low-traffic spot away from the litter tray, laundry appliances and anywhere else that creates noise or distraction. Cats prefer to eat without feeling observed or crowded. In a multi-pet household, separate feeding stations can remove the social pressure that sometimes suppresses appetite.Consistent RoutineCats are creatures of habit. Offering meals at the same times each day, with fresh food in a clean bowl, helps build a reliable feeding ritual your cat will begin to anticipate with genuine interest. Avoid leaving food out for extended periods - fresh food at mealtimes is always more appealing than food that’s been sitting in the bowl for hours. For more practical guidance, read our blog on how to get your cat to eat.Patience When Introducing New FoodIf you’re transitioning a fussy cat to a new food, go slowly. Mix a small amount of the new food alongside the familiar favourite, gradually increasing the proportion of new food over one to two weeks. An abrupt switch is far more likely to trigger rejection.When Reduced Appetite Needs Closer AttentionWhile occasional fussiness is a normal part of cat ownership, a cat not eating at all is a different matter. If your cat hasn’t eaten for more than 24 hours, or if their appetite has dropped suddenly and noticeably, it’s worth taking action. Start by offering a small amount of a familiar favourite food at a different location in a clean bowl. If appetite doesn’t return within a day, contact your vet. Cats can develop serious liver complications if they go without food for too long, so prompt action matters.Older cats who have stopped eating may have different underlying causes to younger cats. Our guide on what to do if your older cat isn’t eating and how long cats can go without food offer practical guidance for concerned owners.Ready to Win Over Your Fussy Cat?WHISKAS® cat food offers a wide range of wet and dry cat foods in a variety of textures and flavours - from rich gravy recipes to crunchy kibble - crafted to satisfy even the most discerning feline palate. Explore the full WHISKAS® cat food range and find the perfect match for your cat’s very particular idea of a purrr-worthy meal.
