Misty lived till 16. She ate a variety of food over the years including the
semi moist.

Towards the end she had liver problems. Ate a prescription food for awhile
but then wouldn't even eat that. Vet said to feed her whatever she wanted.
She lived with my parents but I would go over there after work and cook for
her. Mainly scrambled eggs and finely minced steak. That was what she
preferred.
