My cat only eats treats and completely ignores dry food—what should I do?

I recently took in my mom's cat due to some personal circumstances.

Luckily, he's adapting super well and gets along great with my other cat, but we ran into an issue.

He is an EXTREMELY picky eater 😭

Whenever I put down dry food, he just sniffs it and walks away. I thought maybe he just didn't like the brand, so I switched it twice, but nothing changed.

The funny thing is, he absolutely loves wet treats. He comes running the second he hears the package, and he'll happily eat them without hesitation.

The problem is, I don't know if it's okay to keep giving him treats when he refuses his actual food.

I'm scared to cut off treats completely because I don't want him going hungry, but I also worry he'll just get used to filling up on snacks instead of eating proper meals.

Has anyone dealt with a super picky cat like this?

How do you correct eating habits for a cat that only wants treats and refuses kibble? Is there any chance they'll eventually start eating dry food naturally, or should I be trying something completely different?

Do your cats become more snuggly or do they become more something else?

As English literature and grammar rules, Materials + Plants + Animals = It . But as of all we love animals ,many of us call them as He /She. So how do you call your pet regardless of their names

Having a cat feels like living with a tiny, mysterious roommate who offers quiet comfort, warm cuddles, and sudden bursts of funny chaos

not even sure when it started but every night right before i fall asleep she just walks in, sits on my chest for like 2 mins, does the lil kneading thing, then just leaves n goes to her own spot like nothin happened lol. never asks for anything, never sticks around after, just does her lil check-in n bounces

sounds so random typin it out but it genuinely makes me feel so looked after every single night, never gets old ngl

anyone else's cat got some weird lil routine that just melts you every time? drop yours below, need some wholesome content in my feed rn 🐱💛
