you should always leave out dry and wet food SEPARATELY if you find she doesn't eat the dry food still i would suggest investing in a higher quality dry food. i give my cat applaws cat food its 80% chicken 20% veg my cat loves it. you can buy a tiny bag of 400g and see if she likes it because its always healthy that she eats some dry food aswell as wet. if you're giving your cat cheap cat food theres no chance shell touch it i suggest applaws and if that doesn't work i would start maybe putting about 1 teaspoon of the wet food into the dry food and see if she eats it. of she eats the mixture gradually decrease the amount of wet food you mix in until you are putting none in whatsoever and hopefully she should be eating it and just a heads up the wet/dry food mixture could look and get a bit icky but it should be worth it HOWEVER if your cat is so stubborn that none of the above work, i suggest getting a wet food with some grain (carbohydrate substance) in the food as the carbohydrate should come from your dry food however if she doesn't eat the dry food get the wet food with about 20-30 % carb/grain in it so she has an energy source. good luck

Try mixing it in with her wet food. It's important cats don't have to much dry food as it can cause urine tract problems.
