The thing that I've consistently read is that the best food is the one your cat will eat. My cat can be a bit fussy so Fancy Feast Classics are in our rotation along with Fussie Cat, Weruva, Nature's Instinct.
Even though I'd like to be exclusively wet, o sometimes have to sprinkle a little...
Maybe try some of the Fancy Feast cans (the classics) sprinkled with a little Fortiflora? I know you said money is an issue but if he'll only eat a little - 1 can a day would probably cost you only ~60/70 cents a day.
She's gorgeous! Is there some reason you feel uncomfortable just leaving it out if the food is actually portioned? My cat eats ~8 oz of food daily spread over 3 meals but sometimes, depending on how into she is of what she's eating - it might take her as long as an hour to finish a meal.
They estimated she's around 2 (they = rescue org) but I think she may be just shy of that - 18 months or so? She's only gained 1 lb in the 4 weeks she's been with me but I kind of chalked that up to relaxing (she was in a foster home with two dogs she hated), quality food and a schedule. She...
Yes, my cat is FULLY committed in her belief that if you are within 4 feet of the kitchen, you need to be opening a can. Some of this I think will go away (*crosses fingers) because she was being free fed in her foster home. Our vet says she looks great but be careful so of course I went into...
It's so daunting! You want to make sure you do the right thing and I swear I watch her health more than my own. LOL! The 20 calories per lb makes me feel better, thanks!
Hi, awesome that you're taking the time to research and investigate. I have been obsessively reading here and other places too and http://catinfo.org/?link=cannedfoods was SUPER helpful to me!
For me, I tend not to feed much from the grocery store with the exception of Fancy Feast classics...
Shiro is also the name of a pretty popular Ethiopian dish that my husband (from there) loves - we went back and forth so much. She was here for a week before something stuck!
I know there are several threads on this but I still remain a bit confused and I'm hoping you all can offer me a little insight.
My baby girl (~2) weighes 8 . 2 lbs at her initial vet checkup last week. I'd asked the vet how much she should be eating and was kind of surprised when she told me...
I think you just have to do what you feel is the best because so often things are anecdotal. Even in this thread - one person's cat vomited after eating food that had it in it, meanwhile - my cat seems unphased.
Hi, I'd like you guys to meet Shiro (pronounce sure-oh). She was a stray (I'd originally written feral but I think that was wrong!) cat from West Virginia and came to live with us about 3 weeks ago. They're estimating she's around 2 - she is super playful, VERY vocal (especially at meal time)...
