I feed my cat and kitten dry foods and every Saturday, I give them wet foods so the dry isn't so hard on them.. I did do wet everyday but of course, it's costly and my 1yr old cat got super fat so he's on a diet
It's sad to see that not much real explanation for how it work! Yes, the pet food will bind the Fel d1 in saliva! Do you know when cats grooming their hair with saliva, "no pet food" is in their mouths? In addition, do you know that Fel d1 will also being produced in sebaceous glands and many other glands rather than just saliva gland? Furthermore, do you know that it will produce negative feedback for cats to produce more Fel d1 for compensation, just like the case of type II diabetes? These are why many people still get allergy without any improvement...
@@danielsoto4752 Hey, dry food by itself is not good enough for cats as there is a lack of moisture and the nutritional value isn't interesting. There is no paper/research that leads to the conclusion that this particular Purina Dry Food has any negative effects on a cat's health(when it is along other food sources). Also, what the person mentioned is misleading. Cats do produce Fel D1 in their glands, but the highest concentration of Fel D1 is found in their saliva. As the person mentioned as well, no pet food is in their mouths but the Fel D1 in their saliva that they produce has bound with the IgY antibody in the dry food from Purina. Therefore neutralizing the Fel D1 in their saliva. Quote: "After ingesting the treated food, the cat absorbs the IgY through the gut and into the circulation, later secreting Fel d 1-specific IgY in the saliva during selfgrooming. The salivary IgY then purportedly neutralizes Fel d1 on the cat’s furry coat" - "The curious history behind a biologic-enriched cat food: Hyperimmune avian IgY as a means of oral adoptive passive immunization" Joshua A.

Do you just feed the cat only dry food or do you feed the cat both wet and dry food?

@@TheChing43202 could you share a paper or a research that mentions the link between Feld1 and Diabetes or the negative feedback you mentioned? Thanks

It's sad to see that you do not have "much real explanation for how it work" either. Do some research before spouting off in multiple comments.
