Hey cat lovers. There is a Star Trek movie marathon on, I won’t be getting anything done today!!!

C4c: I hope your kitty continues to enjoy his new fountain and it helps with his health issues; keep us updated.

FYI, after we briefly discussed TJ’s and their canned cat foods I looked at my Vet’s cat food recommendations and found she only included the chicken and rice recipe on her list; just thought I would pass that info along. I am going to check out all of them when I finally make it to TJ’s; maybe the other recipes fish content is high or they are high in carbs, IDK.

Sharon and Akari: I have had some Authority recipes on my cat food list to check out for a while. I am going to buy a few cans of Go! when I am near a pet store that carries it, thanks for the reviews!

Has anyone used freeze dried tripe? I am looking for some with no additives, just tripe. I was thinking about sprinkling a little on the cats’ canned food. Maybe this will make it taste better and I can add more of a variety to the ones that are addicted to kitty crack.

New Foods Review
Canned, I apparently made good choices because even my picky eaters liked these new recipes. Of course they only wanted them for a few meals, but they ate them again the next week when offered. I will be adding them to my rotation:
• Primal Turkey (freeze dried raw) – takes longer to hydrate than what is written in the directions
• by Nature Organic Chic & Liver – pate’ with a smooth, soft consistency, stays soft after refrigeration
• Verus NZ Lamb, Tripe, Veg & Green Lipped Mussel – pate’ with smooth, soft consistency with whole peas, stays soft after refrigeration; they of course did not eat the peas.
• Nutrisource – Chic, Turkey, Lamb & Fish – pate’, stays fairly soft after refrigeration
• Purina Beyond Chic & Brown Rice – pate’ with a firm consistency
• Blue Healthy Gourmet Kitten Chicken Entrée (from Akari’s list) – pate’ with a firm consistency
• Felidae (a poster named Barbara recommended) I found 5.5 oz on sale for 87 cents, woohoo! Chicken Turkey, Lamb and Ocean Fish and Chic & Rice – pate’ with a smooth, soft consistency, stays soft after refrigeration

Kibble:
• Fromm Beef Livattini – no one liked
• Fromm Duck ala Veg – big hit, everyone liked
• Purina Beyond Superfood Herring – everyone liked

I checked out the Annamaet cat kibbles that HDM mentioned her cats did well on. Annamaet Chic & Rice has crab meal (which I am sure makes it quite tasty) and on their website they wrote they use hormone and antibiotic free chicken in their recipes. Both the grain inclusive and GF look promising for my kitties, but I forgot to see if my pet store carries them.

Hope everyone is having a good Labor Day!!!
