Got to my bedroom and I had on my dresser a half eaten tube of Bonnie Bell Cherry Lipsmackers. LOL!

His whole demeanour has changed. I am so pleased. (I think canned wet food would have had the same effect as the raw.) Plus none of the cats harrass us to feed them now the way the did on kibble. It was like they all needed their kibble fix! It is one of the biggest changes I have noticed since switching from kibble; they all seem more satiated. Food for thought, eh? And I think quality canned is better than kibble alone. Glad your six are doing so well! If ALex hadn't taken to the raw diet (he was a hard sell), I was going to put him on mostly canned. He still gets a little canned on days he's being fussy.Knatoleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809822081515082096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-35296806734909033772012-04-20T17:57:40.957-04:002012-04-20T17:57:40.957-04:00Deb: A long time back, the cat we had at the time,...Deb: A long time back, the cat we had at the time, was having a lot of intestinal problems.

It doesn't take much to satisfy them, either.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06817710263282488135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-18208749731195974062012-04-20T14:04:58.542-04:002012-04-20T14:04:58.542-04:00Thank goodness I am in good company here..people g...Thank goodness I am in good company here..people give me the stink eye when I tell them my cats have wet and dry food.

No problems since putting him on mostly wet food. But I think I'm going to check out a more quality wet food than Friskies! Oh that Audrey! She is just the most gorgeous cat with velvet fur. She gleams with health. Guess it's easier to appreciate her beauty when she's not compromising my sleep or getting into mischief at my house! But how nice for you to have a young cat along with your seniors.<br /><br />BeckyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-4499498095145488602012-04-20T10:50:10.224-04:002012-04-20T10:50:10.224-04:00Cat..I buy it at our local Pet Store called Pet Va...Cat..I buy it at our local Pet Store called Pet Valu. Eagle Pack is the company and Holistic Select is 4 of their flavors. Holistic Select also comes in dry. Perhaps your pet store has something similar or can advise you on a good moist food. Whatever you do buy, if your cat refuses it just keep trying a little at a time. Sometimes adding a bit of moist to their normal ration of dry will get them going on it.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06817710263282488135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-51857117886144969162012-04-20T10:44:03.739-04:002012-04-20T10:44:03.739-04:00Welcome to the club! :)
