We currently feed our dog on skinners and wondered if there was a catfood as good for cats as skinners is for dogs?
He currently eats purina one senior but there must be something better that we can get for him, so - what does yout cat eat? :D
 
I generally pick up a few brands, normally get Science Plan, then there's another I'd know if I seen the packet but can't mind the name. Picked up a box of Whiskas recently and tried that which I didn't think she'd eat as it's considerably cheaper than the others but she didn't turn her nose up.
She will only eat the crunchie types and won't touch the more meaty variety, don't know if that's good for her or not but it's all she will eat.
 
Raw meaty bones, whole raw fish, whole raw mice/rats/chicks (inc feathers/fur), sectioned whole rabbits, whole raw quail (again inc feathers/fur). Best food you can give. :)

I'll set the traps tonight! :p
That Royal Canin looks good so will try that first and then will have a look at Burns if he doesn't like it (tried science plan but he wouldn't eat it). Cheers.

Sheeba is favoured over any other brand by our cat, I think it's a bit more expensive though.

That cat food advert angers me, it's built up far too much for a just a feline. I swear some days up and down the country over spoiled animals are eating better than I am.:mad::p

Yeah I know, I was just joking around.
If I fed the cat that though I think the dog would kill me.
They only get butcher cut offs etc as treats - I heard that feeding domestic animals with that stuff was really fattening and this is a 14 year old indoor cat who really doesn't need to be fatter.

Quite the opposite mate. :) Raw fed dogs and cats are very lean, hard-muscled creatures as they're not being fed on fattening grains (which account for ~90% of commercial foods). You can go ahead and feed the dog on the stuff too. Check out sites like RawMeatyBones by Dr Tom Lonsdale and UKRMB for some more info. :)
 
Expensive, but IAMS seem to be akin to crack for our 3 cats, they just don't stop, in fact we have to mix them with some nasty aldi biscuits now and again to stop them ballooning and/or constantly nagging for food.

And it may just be a coincidence but one of them seems to develop a constant twitch/spasm while hes sleeping if we've ran out and hes not eaten them for awhile...no joke.
 
Iams dry cat food. Our vet seemed to think it was good for him, could tell he was on it by the quality of the cat's coat.

Caesar's Roast Chicken in gravy/jelly used to send my cat nuts. He was addicted to the stuff.
 
Of all the different stuff tried with our cats, they seem to like plain old Felix the most (though one does love human food). The other one went through a phase of liking those hi-life or w/e tuna tins, but now just sticks to Felix

Every time we try giving them something different they'll eat it for a few days, and then refuse tot ouch it :(

As for Dry food, it's Purina at the moment with some of those TD ball things
