Wonder if PAH actually did a taste test at all as thats 100% bad rating from Purrs so far!

Perhaps thats why its limited edition - as long as you buy it the first time they aren't bothered if its a flop after that...  :tired:

Despite the bad press i couldn't resist getting the boys some of this.  They are unimpressed to say the least, Riley let it touch his lips but didn't drink any of it and Lucas just looked at me like I poisoned his cat milk  :evillaugh:

I just assumed it was less calories Des, but I didn't really look at the packaging - I would get some for Lucas but he is so skinny I am giving him more "full fat" stuff  :evillaugh:

Well, wont bother going looking for that on Sat then!! I couldnt' work out what the difference between cat milk and senior cat milk was, although Rosie's a bit bony, so I might treat her to some.
Please spay your cat

Ah very strange - it was in a christmassy aisle with jumpers, legwarmers and pixie outfits for dogs  :sick: :sick:

Definitely not missing much though, I reckon the boys will be happier with the good old milk - we got some more of that today and the turkey gravy ended up in the CP bin at Morrisons, hope one of the CP cats like it  :shy:

Mark, sounds like you had the same idea as me then! I thought I might as well get 5 as they love the type of gravy that comes in pouches etc and thats what I thought it would be  :tired: I did see the senior catmilk this time, not noticed that before  ;D

It actually reminds me of a simpsons quote...

"Good gravy!"
"Thanks! it is just brown and water..."

They don't sell it at my PAH, I saw it mentioned in one of your posts a week or so ago and rushed down tp PAH expectantly  :wow:  Couldn't see it anywhere and I went down all the cat aisles - doesn't look like the boys are missing out on much though!

I searched for ages and eventually asked - its in the xmas aisle. I'm tring to think what it smells like but nothing to compare it to other than its a horrible smell that makes me feel sick  :sick:

I haven't tried it personally :evillaugh:. I also bought 5 for £3 - Mine all turned their noses up at it and not surprisingly as it smells disgusting and it's as thin as water. I expected a thick gravy that actually smelt like turkey to add to the food. I expect the other 4 will go in the bin. No point even giving it to any of the fosterers as I know no cat will like it or benefit from it.

I did buy senior catmilk for clapton which I haven't seen anywhere else  ;D

Okay I wasn't really sure where to put this thread  :shify:

I have been meaning to ask for a couple of weeks, has anyone tried (well cats tried  ;) ) the PAH own Turkey Gravy (limited edition) drink? Its in the same packaging as the cat milk but I am guessing its a special thing for Christmas - I think it is in the Christmas stockings as well as being 5 packs for £3 (or £4 cant remember)

We bought the offer of 5 packs and all FOUR cats turned their noses up at it! (even feline hoover, Lucas  :rofl: ) they will eat it if mixed into their biscuits but even then they aren't fussed and refuse to drink it on its own. Don't really blame them as it doesn't look much like gravy, more light brown water  :sick: I thought they might like it as they have a habit of licking the gravy off the meat and leaving the meat behind, but this stuff is really not the same!

Anyone else tried it? What did your cats think?
