Uneaten wet cat food

What do you do with any uneaten wet cat food? I was just putting it in my bin in the kitchen but it makes the bin stink!! Also, if there is nothing else in the bin when I empty uneaten food in to it the bottom of the bin is wet when I take the bag out.

I'm not really sure what else to do with it?? Can I flush it down the toilet? Weird question but I really don't want my bin smelling awful! I don't have uneaten food often but sometimes they don't finish it all.

They do pig out on the AC and Bozita but don't aways finish the Smilla if it is just Smilla and not mixed with AC. There isn't usually much, it depends if I'm home or not as if I am home during the day they get fed 4 times instead of 3 so have less time between meals to finish the Smilla (only food which doesn't get empty bowls in one sitting).

Re: Uneaten wet cat food

You can get little 'scraps' bins that sit on the worktop which are useful when you're cooking and peeling stuff and I use it for uneaten food (well pre kittens I did, they all hoover it up now!), just put a nappy bag in it or scrape it into your rubbish bin just before you take it out and rinse the bin thing.

You might have to look about for them though, I think my Mum got hers in Wilko but I had to get mine from her Betterware book because I couldn't find them in town.

Re: Uneaten wet cat food

Well, you could put less food in their dishes.

Or you could put the waste in a separate bag and put a knot in the bag to seal it, to keep the smell and liquid contained.

Or you could put the waste into a bag and then straight into the outside bin.

Or flush it away!

Re: Uneaten wet cat food

I have very cheapo sandwich bags from the supermarket (about 60 for 30p or something) and I just scoop any left-overs into that, tie it up and then stick it out in the wheelie bin. Double bag it if it's a lot.

Re: Uneaten wet cat food

I feed any wet food left overs from bowl to the birds,makes more sense than wasting it .Any larger amounts go to feed the foxes

Re: Uneaten wet cat food

Not that there is such a thing as left overs My little piggy Malibu hoovers anything left. But we have a food waste bin that the refuse collectors empties once a week so anything she cannot eat (as she is not allowed) goes in there.
