Mine are a total nightmare with food, they get bored quickly but would evil eye me if I even dared walk in at meal times with a tin!  :shify: 

They are crafty little puds and they unite to disprove if its not to their liking..... :sneaky:

you have to read the small print though

a 156gm tin of Applaws is a day's food for an average cat (according to the tin anyway) so although it costs over £1 it is cheaper than a day's supply of a lot of pouches, usually 4, and much better quality
I wouldn't want to feed more than one meal a day of complementary though  :scared:

With 7 cats I couldnt get away with buying just one brand, they do all love Gormet tho, the tins also  :)

Gooey gets very angry if he gets the same too often, the look of pure evil on his face when he checks in his dish and its the wrong food  :scared: :scared:
Thats when he bites my leg or if im wearing thick jeans he grabs and shakes them  :evillaugh:

I dont buy the foil trays, never seen them actually  :shify: I started buying the just nature when Saffron was here and find Tia likes it also so I buy it for her.

We go through 14 boxes of pouches, a few cans and a 3kg bag of biscuits a fortnight  :Crazy:

Tescos does pouches called just nature, there under £4 for 12 pouches and I find that goes down well here, maybe worth a try  :)

Price has just gone up on these they were cheaper than felix but not anymore, so expect the foil trays to follow, i knew 22p was too good to be true longterm :sigh:

Do they have dried food also? I dont believe 1 can of food a day is enough for 2 cats, it is 2 cats right?

I buy pouches and a tray of tins, sometimes whiskers or felix-never kittykat that just gets wasted, all the pouches are used straight away,  even my snooty strays wont eat the cans  :evillaugh:

they love pouches but i just dont see the point in me paying more when they will go through them quicker and when i cant recycle them

Can you find foil trays they like, it always comes down to having to stomach the cost, stock up when on offer. At least the trays can be recycled  ;D
I have 8 on a mainly wet diet so go through a lot, the only tins they all like are yarrah but they are more expensive than what your currently getting, zooplus have whacked alot of prices up since i last ordered so over a £1 a tin now.
