Expert Answer

An opened cat can should be finished within two days, and leftovers should be sealed and refrigerated at once or they spoil in the open. When feeding from the fridge, warm it slightly first. Long exposure to air breeds bacteria that can cause gastroenteritis if eaten, so discard leftovers promptly.
