Hi Lindsay, I recommend that you talk to your local veterinarian about this question. Both wet and dry foods can be used for weight loss. How well they work will depend on the exact type and brand of food, how much you are feeding, and your pet’s overall health. In cats, it is important that they lose weight slowly. If done too fast, it can cause a serious medical issue. Your vet knows your pet’s medical history and they can recommend the best food to help her lose the weight safely.
