Trellis is on a distinguished road
Thanks for the advice on feeding!

Fluffy (11 wks) is really loving the Hi-Life kitten pouches. He literally wolfs it down within seconds!

At the moment he is having half Hi-Life & half Whiskas each day (approx 1 pouch of each) as I can't afford to waste the Whiskas, but I have found Hi-Life in Morrisons and Pets at Home so I know I can get it easily and will move him fully onto that as soon as the Whiskas is all gone.

I have been giving a little of the cheap dry food, but seperate, for grazing, not mixed with the wet, so he's not eating much. I will finish the packet I am using and then switch to using Orijen as I have ordered a trial pack. I've also ordered some Applaws kitten to try for variety. I am gonna feed him primarily wet food, but will leave a little dry out when we're at work in case he gets peckish. I think I might donate my unopened box of Tesco dry food to the cat shelter (there are bins for donations in the supermarkets).

He really seems to be enjoying his food now and I am pleased to say his poo has returned to normal and is less pungent than in was a few days ago!
