Ok no one poke me, but ever since i can remember, all of our cats have been eating the budget dry food such as Whiskas, Snappytom and Friskies. Although they all loved them, when i started coming onto this forum i got a bit worried people might judge me for not getting more expensive brands or making their diets better (we've never had overweight kitties).
Now i went to a HUGE store yesterday called Petstock, and it is local to me now that we've moved house. I had a look around and decided to try some new food on Charlie. I'm starting small, and i may try different brands to see what the effects are.
I bought a 400gm bag of Royal Canin indoor 27 (for 1-10 year olds) and same size/brand of tartar control (not just for teeth but makes stools less smelly and helps with fur digestion)
Now i know as well there are indoor ones for different weights, and light ones for lower physical activities and more. And frankly, i'm a little overwhelmed at the moment how many choices of brands there are as well.
I paid about $12aus for the two. I'd like to know for everyone here, what dry foods are the best value for you, and what has the best results in your eyes.
Charlie is still going to be eating the budget tinned foods because he likes them, and frankly, it will start getting a bit expensive for me to change everything over.
Also, because i got two different ones, i've mixed them together into a container, instead of giving him a different one each day (also lasts longer i think) Do you think this sounds like a good idea? (he's already happily eaten this new food last night and this morning).
