Yes, I feed only moistened dry food, canned food & raw (not @ the same time, as a separate meal). I used to give them dry kibble & 2 of my guys got struvite crystals, so I had to liquefy their diet. Momo was on Hill's c/d prescription canned food & Princess the Hill's c'd kibble (bc she can't have high fat food) but she hated it. So I had to moisten everything she ate. Surprisingly, Mimi liked her kibble moistened, so I just give them all moistened kibble now. It's just easier for them to digest & doesn't put too much strain on their tiny kidneys. As for their teeth, kibble will still contribute to plaque on their teeth, just not as fast as soft food. I brush their teeth every night & once a week, they get a chew called Beams from The Honest Kitchen, it's dehydrated catfish skins. They also get dental cleanings if needed from the vet.
