Gourmet Gold is branded as premium food, but I don't really think is is any better than whiskas/felix, although cats do seem to prefer it. Maybe it has more flavour/smell? - also they are either in gravy or pate. My personal opinion is if you feed whatever wet they like supplemented by a good quality dry of Daisy's choice  :evillaugh:, you can't too far wrong. I have tried virtually every premium food going but they don't really like it. I have bought all kinds of grain-free food for Alice but she favours purina-one sensitive. Purina also do one above purina-one, Pro-plan - AFAIK, it has more trace minerals etc in and a higher meat content. Kylie gets white fish for a treat and Alice gets tinned salmon or cooked chicken (no additives) for her treat. Alice also gets a bit of cooked mince or other meat. I draw the line at giving her ham or any other processed meats with chemicals (ie phosphates) in.

Whiskas supermeat and whiskas simply don't have any cereals in - mine don't like either  :tired: :evillaugh:

I'm afraid everyone has got an opinion on this one, you may regret asking lol!  mine have royal canin dry and three have felix as good as it looks which many
won't approve of but they eat it and the same cannot be said for every other type of food I've tried

Amber my little torti has a tiny appetite and has the little tins of gourmet pate or the trays from tesco of turkey and rice - she has a great love affair with whiskas simply
but it upset her skin

I've tried bozita and many of the other high meat content foods but they just won't eat them so am sticking with this!

While I've been out of work I've been forced to feed Daisy on whatever wet food is on offer at the shops,Whiska's,Felix or KitE Kat & for dry it was Purina One.
(I drew the line at the really cheap stuff!)
Anyway,I start a new job in the new year so I intend to feed her on a better quality of food.As I did'nt get my bag of Royal Caninmthey sent me a bag of their Exigent Savor Sensations,which she loves!!! :wow: so the dry is sorted now...

But for her wet food,what would be good for an indoor furball who is fussy?...
She's not to keen on the P@H Purely so it's a toss up of these;
(She wont eat gravy!)
