How to store cat food properly
Store food in a dry and cool environment.
Dry cat food should be stored in a cool and dry environment that does not exceed 100 degrees fahrenheit (38 degrees celsius). If the food is stored in a warm place, it could lead to the destruction of vitamins in the food and cause the food to go rancid.
Do not store cat food in a garage because you cannot control the environment. Depending on where you live the food may be exposed to heat and moisture in a garage.
