anybody want some cat food?
Hi, guys...
Well, the vet sold me some food to feed to one of my kitties for a supposed stomach/intestinal disorder (it was worms). Sold me a big box of this "Eukanuba Low-Residue Adult" canned cat food. Told me to feed it just to one cat (yeah, riiight...ever try to pull THAT one off in a house with 7 furkids?) Kitty in question just gave me a dirty look when I tried to feed him the food. After taking him to another vet, he was given some amoxicillin, which fixed him right up. The other vet won't take the food back, even with the receipt, because the package was opened (I have 10 unopened cans) Anybody want this stuff? I'm only asking enough for postage, I'm not looking to 'make' anything on this. I just want it gone, but don't want to throw it away. Like I said, 10 unopened can of"Eukanuba Veterinary Diets Low-Residue Adult" cat food. I can't feed this stuff to the other cats, or even the outside ferals...it's not meant to be fed to just anyone, only kitties with problems. Anybody want it? Anybody got any ideas on what to do with it? PB |

I'd give it to the local animal shelter... they've got to get problem kitties occasionally, and that stuff's EXPENSIVE! -- ~Karen aka Kajikit Crafts, cats, and chocolate - the three essentials of life http://www.kajikitscorner.com |

However, *then* I did a little research and discovered that this food is simply a highly-digestible food that produces less waste. I would think that it would be fine to feed this product to any of your cats, as long as they do not have health problems that require specific prescription diets. MaryL |

Well, the "donates" have it...I shall call around to the local
shelters, see who wants it. I would feed it to my other cats, but when I initially triedto feed it to Mr. Hooha (the problem kitty), the others gave me this look, like "And, you're not expecting US to eat that are you??" |

MaryL This is the diet that my Jasper is on. Of course, Luna seems to like it. I asked the vet about Luna eating it and the response was that all things considered, it probably was not enough nutrients for her...or not the right combo...whatever. my 2 pesos, Pam |

I think it's a wonderful idea! If you can't, or don't want to, sell it on ebay, list it on freecycle. Joy |
