    Pretty sure kibble is shit for their kidneys. Dry food isn’t perfect for them obviously. For cats for instance a lot of cat food contains grains, which they shouldn’t ever eat. Only the shittiest brands like Whiskas do that though.

      It’s designed to constipate them as well. You don’t want your dog shitting 8 times a day.

        Yup. The only dry food that is fine is 100% freeze dried meat / fish, but only as a treat, so again their kidneys don’t take a huge hit. Cats usually don’t like drinking water itself (they take in water from their killed prey usually) and feeding them anything dry makes them even more susceptible to kidney problems.
