Do you feed your cats? mine are getting so fussy, I'm forever picking the bowls up and changing it. Whiskas, felix, gourmet perle, sometimes they eat and sometimes they don't. Must admit it sometimes smell's? makes you wonder what they are puttin in it.

Our little cat Harry came with the house when we moved, and were told by previous owners (who emigrated to Spain, hence leaving the cat behind) that she would only eat Asda's tuna, and drink plain water - she has turned her nose up at tuna ever since, and eats Felix chicken flavour in jelly, with a scattering of go-cat biscuits on top. Also she loves a drop of milk. I did try her on Tesco's own brand once, and what a waste of a tin of cat food that was!
isla I have more surplus cat food than you can imagine, gourmet trays, bog standard, ultra posh stuff, she turns her delicate little nose up at it all, then earlier I had to grab a slimy frog from her jaws, I give up!
Is one sachet in the morning and one in the evening with a few dry biscuits in between too much as my 11yr old cat seems to be getting a bit fat!
Glad to know it's not just mine that's picky. Anything with tuna is ignored at the minute but taht will probably have changed by tonight.
No pips, that's exactly what we feed our mob. One in the morning, one at tea-time, with biscuit if requested. At 11 though, you should be feeding senior food - they do slow up and can put on weight (just like us....). If you read the box it says 4 sachets per day, that is just over the top, I would never feed that much. Make sure your cat has toys, we play with ours with bits of string and stuff, keeps them exercised (and our older cats are 12 and 13). Ours weigh about 5.5 kilos, but they are big rather than fat.
Mine has dry food for his teeth too and like you boxtops he used to be on the TD stuff from the vet, which was expensive. He is now on Royal Canine and they do a similar version, I get it online in a huge bag which saves a lot of money. Quite a few brands do a variety for tooth decay.

I can see our feline friends are all fussy. Perhaps I might just give the dried biscuits a go. You put the food down and they look at it, as if to say I'm not eating that lol.
Both my cats have died now but I have spent many a happy hour pondering various varieties of cat food in the supermarket, wondering which one I could afford to chuck in the bin.
Thanks boxtops I feel better about it now, I do tend to buy senior food though if it's available, I'm lucky with him really as he's not too fussy.
Mine will only eat Whiskas chicken biscuits. He won't touch Whiskas pouches and used to have Felix until he started leaving all of that. I resorted to a cheap variety called Vitacat from Aldi, as it was recommended. He eats 2 out of 3 of the flavours with that brand and I give the beef one away as he won't even look at it. Often he just sucks the jelly off any brand and leaves the meat. It is infuriating!
