Even the ones that say they fit multiple size cans are too big for Fancy Feast. You might try contacting the company. I never needed them for Fancy Feast (one reason I bought it when I had only one cat was that I could feed the whole can, and didn't have to worry about keeping left-overs). However, most of the standard-size covers I had were promotional items from the various cat-food manufacturers (usually came with the cans of food). |

Bobble We aren't required to do it, but we do have recycle. I recycle a lot of my items but can't claim that I do it with everything that is eligible. MaryL |

I use Wellness canned food, so there is no problem finding lids that fit. That's what I feed my cats, too. I buy the large, 13.5 oz cans (not sure how this would be represented in metric - approx. .4 kg or 400 g), which feeds my crew at least 2 meals. But I don't bother with pet food lids any more - instead, I bought a couple of small glass containers with lids, and I store the leftover in that. However, I don't have any problem with odor from canned food because I rinse the cans before I dispose of them. That uses very little water and solves any problem with odor or attracting insects. Yeah, same here. My tin cans can sit in the recycle bin for up to a week before I empty it, and I sure don't want them stinking up the house in the meantime! -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |

I have 2 and I got them from Petsmart but it was a few years ago. I bet you could get them online easily. |

Even the ones that say they fit multiple size cans are too big for Fancy Feast. I don't use the lids for FF, but the multi size lids fit the small Wellness cans just fine. I had two that I got from the same source and one fit perfectly immediately. The other one had to be "trained" to fit. Try heating it up a bit in boiling water and then when hot put it on a can and let it sit till cooled. You'll need to use gloves. |
