Ok, I'll bite. I hate giving my cats wet food because, frankly, it smells dreadful. But I know it's better than dry food for them. Any suggestions/links about how to prep food for cats? Bear in mind I actually have no idea how to prep meat as I don't eat it myself.

Also, those people that try to feed their cats/dogs "vegan" or "vegetarian" are terrible human beings and don't deserve their furry friends.

I've usually heard that dry food is marginally better for cats, since it's better for their teeth. Otherwise, nutritional content is the same.

My vet told us to alternate between wet and dry servings. Cats are designed to get water from their meals and it helps for cats that don't like to drink water on their own. Dry food helps with their dental hygiene like you said though. Nutritionally I think they're more or less the same.
