Hi just curious on what other people think of or feed there cats on.

Mine is currently on Iams active cat.
But just recently noticed royal canin for £12 in pets at home.

Although it's not the best food, you might want to consider Royal Canin Persian for your girl to stop her forming too many hairballs from that big coa. Really though, dry food should only make up a small proportion of the diet, and if you don't mind hairballs, or will give her something to treat for them on a regular basis, then there are grain free dry foods such as Origin, Acana etc. Grau, Bozita, Animonda and Smilla are all good wet foods available from Zooplus. Bozita is also available from Mutley and Mog. Asda do a Toplife Chicken Dinner which I'm told is fairly good, as is Pets at Home's Purely, and the High Life brand. That should be plenty to keep you going! Mine get Toplife, but used to get Animonda, Smilla, Grau and Bozita before i fell out with Zooplus.

Raw, Aminonda Carny, Bozita, Smilla and Grau. (no dry at all)

My Persians have only liked dried foods. If I put wet food out for my current Persian, Bibi, she licks the gravy, and she doesnt like pate.

I like RC Persian 30 for my Persians, but have used other vet-recommended-and quality RC food if necessary. The Persian 30 is excellent for the long fine coats that Persians have, and really helps with furballs.

P@H also sell Applaws, which is also very good, it smells very good, and I even recommended it to my brother for his moggie (he is reluctant to try anything except whiskas) , and it puts their coats into excellent condition. Bibi loves it, the pellets are quite small and dark (she has a little mouth!)

At the moment, Bibi is on RC Calm, (we've had a few events in recent months and she is new to me) and I cannot praise it enough for a nervous/jumpy cat - she is like a much more confident version of herself. I will then start adding RC P30 back in in a month or two, especially before the summer as I want to make sure her coat is ok for summer grooming.

Hope this helps

Smilla, Animonda Carny, Petnatur, Bozita, Macs - no dry at all other than the odd thrive treat sprinkled on their food

They used to be on Whiskas Kitten and then just on Applaws dry and they're doing better now - eyes brighter, coat shinier, poos not as smelly, and they love food time! Really not expensive either once I worked out rough monthly costs compared to Whiskas Kitten

Pets are Gods way of apologising for our families x

Animonda carny as their main food
bit of smilla for a change
A raw or lightly cooked treat every now and then. They love steamed white fish and they also love beef kidney and a bit of raw turkey

Am trying to introduce a bit of bozita at the moment but they aren't keen.
They love feline fayre but due to concerns about how complete it really is I only feed it as a treat now (the gravy pots are great to put wormer granules in if anyone ever has trouble getting tablets down their cats).

Dried is being cut down but is mainly - fish4cats, bit of fish orijen, and they also like lamb acana. Have some fish acana but we haven't tried that yet.

Ziwi peak treats are a massive winner as well

Natures Menu mainly
and a small amount of James Wellbeloved down during the night cos he likes to munch during the night

I'm going to try him on hilife soon too so he has a choice :-)

Bozita, Smilla, Animonda Garny and RC Kitten 36 for munching.

When I got them from the breeder they were on RC Babycat 34 and Felix pouches, Jeez what a stench every time they went No 2's and it was very often my living room smelt like something had died, even Febreze didn't quell it!!! Plus Tilly had to have a course of Prokolin for very soft poo's.

After that had cleared up I tried an all dry diet like vet had recommended,also recommended Hills Science Plan Kitten Development. Well I tried weaning them onto it, and yes their poos had returned to normal but 1 kitten was straining so hard she had blood after her poo, this frightened me so much, but apart from a little slimey streaky blood after pooing, her behaviour and energy levels were still the same so I had a word with the nurse at the vets and explained what I was doing and she asked what the problem was with RC so told me to put them back on that. (in fact she did not seem all that surprise that my kitten had an intolerance to Hills)

So after posting on here regarding food, my kittens are on the foods at the top of this post and have had no problems, no smelly poos, and I can feed Bozita 1 day and Smilla the next and it doesn't affect their bowels, they are growing really well on it. Personally I think it works out cheaper than Felix because all they would eat was the jelly and left the meat. Therefore I was using more.


Sorry about the long post
