I’ve recently been reading up on cat foods and have changed over to higher protein brands.

I used to use Royal Canin dry food and Whiskas/Sheba wet food.

I’ve now swapped to Orijen dry food and Applaws, Porta 21 & Animonda wet foods.

Everything’s going great, the cats love their new diet and they’re both thriving.

The only problem I have is… I bought 48 tins of various flavours of Animonda cat food in the big 400 gram tins (I don’t live in the UK so supply is difficult for me so I buy in bulk when and where I can find it). And it takes my 2 cats at least 4 days to finish such a big tin. I do keep the tin in the fridge after opening, and do let the food warm up to room temperature before serving it, but they just seem to get bored of the same flavour 4 days in a row, the 1st day on Animonda they're fine - after 2 days the get bored and eat less wet food and more dry biscuits. Meaning I am throwing an awful lot of the tinned food away.

I was wondering if I could open a tin and feed them it for a day, then freeze the rest in. That way I could give them a different flavour every day – which I am sure they would be far happier with. And with a bit of luck, with more variety in flavours I know they would eat more wet food and less dry food (which is my long-term goal for them, to get them on a diet that is predominantly wet).

So to cut a long question short…

can I take canned food out of the tin and freeze it in?
