Cat Foods

AnSliabhCorcra

I'm curious what brands of food you all use for your cats and how often you feed them and in what quantities?

I'm asking purely out of my own curiosity. When I first started owning cats, I used the run-of-the-mill supermarket stuff however on researching it, I couldn't quite believe how awful it was (4% meat from derivatives for example).

Nowadays, I use a combination of Royal Canine, Feringa, James Wellbeloved in wet food and Royal Canine dry. I've found buying it online to work out pretty good value.

Zooplus is great, mostly bozita wet at night, and free feed taste of the wild daytime (up to about 5pm)
Tried a few others, I stick to grain free, cats eat less and seem healthy, lovely coats, even my 16yr old boy.

Agree! Absolutely love Zooplus and all their accessories etc are the same as those found in-store and at a fraction of the price!

Hoped to free feee dry but turns out that my little bugger is a grubber!

Taste of the wild for kibble as default as it's grain free (unlike RC) ; works out cheaper then RC usually for higher quality :P Sometimes we rotate in other brands for variety (i.e. weight loss etc.) but ToTW is the default go to brand and we change around the versions on a regular basis.

For wet it's a rotation of Bozita (cans, chicken only), Catz, Feringa Duo, MAC's, GranataPet, Animonda Carny and O'Canis usually to stop them from going off them with Cosma & Schmusy as treat foods. Usually try to buy the 6/12 pack of mixed cans from one brand and buy a bit more when discounted. We have 6 cats but only 3 eat wet so they usually get 200g in the morning (I buy 200g cans when possible); then about 250g - 400g raw chicken (thigh if possible, if not breast) or turkey (thigh) with chicken necks / chicken hearts / turkey hearts thrown in a few times a week around lunch (split between three cats with the others sometimes trying a bit on a odd day). Kibble is out all day as we have a few cats who only eat kibble and at various times of the day so we've not tried to limit the kibble feeding (yet).
