What can I add to my senior cat's wet food for extra nutrition?

Question

Hello! I have a male cat that’s about 17 years old and he is on a special diet of Purina Gastroenteric EN. He is not able to chew the dry food and seems to have trouble eating the wet food unless it’s really watered down. Is there something else I can add to the wet food instead of water that would nutritionally benefit my “old man”?! Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | neutered | 8 lbs

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Eric. You may ask your veterinarian about Purina Hydracare. It is a specially formulated liquid nutritional supplement for cats. It provides fluid as well as electrolytes. It is generally tasty to cats. It is designed for renal disease in cats, but could potentially benefit Eric as well. I hope this information helps!
