Some more background on Dr. H:
Dr. Hodgkins has come to the same conclusion (that dry foods are detrimental to cats) by a much more prestigious route: she has been a vet for 30 years, more than 8 of them working inside Hill’s Pet Nutrition ... she was issued a patent for her revolutionary idea that cats are harmed by feeding highly-processed carbohydrate-containing foods: she assigned that patent to Purina so they could develop a first-of-its-kind canned food for diabetic cats (which has since been widely copied with modification to avoid the patent).
