Good stuff so far thanks everyone.
I do bring my cat in to the vet every 6 months and currently have her on dry food that focuses on nutrition and especially for kidney / renal failure. My cat is 18 and has shown just the earliest signs of this (drinks a lot) but is still totally with it, mentally and physically. I had another cat that died last year that was really in final stages of it and had lost over 1/2 of her weight. The decision to put that one down was agonizing but the right thing to do. Everything else with my 18 year old checks out well... all organ function, eyes, etc.
I do try to keep her away from table food and wet food because she just doesn't keep that down like dry food or how she used to (many years ago she literally ate a package of turkey... it was ridiculous) but no way I'd do that now.
Maybe I will find some fattening wet food and try mixing it in...
