I Thought I had made it clear in my first and subsequent posts that I am considering this for the cats benefit first and foremost but with added bonus of it being cost effective. If I was only interested in cost I'd be feeding them supermarket value food which would be cheaper and much less hassle than raw!
Also I think it is evident throughout this post that advice is being taken and links followed up and I have stated I'm not about to bin the pouches immediately.

Again thank you to all for links, advice, info etc it is appreciated and I am following it all up, I love my girls more than anything and would never do anything which wasn't in their best interests and tbh I don't like the inference that I would.
