Cat Food

Does anyone else use Trader Joe's canned cat food? It has no by-
products or wheat and has only ,.025% max magnesium? My cat really
loves it after having rejected serveral others including Science and
ProPlan canned food. I decided to wean him off his beloved dried
food because of urinary problems and despaired when he refused to eat
them. Trader Joe's even has a really nice pine nugget kitty litter
which I layer ontop of the clumping litter so he doesn't accidentally
ingest it.

Actually, what this should have said "BTW, feeding a cat a poor quality diet
can possibly lead to a UTI. Believe me, the cat finds no enjoyment in having
one.

same difference, don't be nice, I like you being plain and to the
point.

If you was sitting here and we was having a pop and a smoke, and you
was my friend, (knowing what you know) I would expect you to say, 9
lives is garbage Bear!
Git your **** together man!

what about whiskas? my cat has no teeth and only really eats whisaks
supermeat (normal and senior) as all the others tends to come in
chunks which she finds hard to deal with and the supermeat in nice and
smooth for her. i do sometimes get the chunks stuff and then mash it
up for her but she turns her nose up at it.

I would really like to get her something of better quality but all the
high quality cat foods seem to come in dry kibbles, at least here they
do, any suggestions?

hi ta bookie

Yeah, I just read this morning that wiskas and all them supermarket
brands are not healthy for your cat.

Sure it holds them up, puts some weight on them, there is some
nutrients in the food etc... but when you consider all of the
ingredients (far too many to list)...
what they put in the cans or pouches is not fit for consumption.

What they are putting in the cans is everything they couldn't sell to
the humans.
ground up bones and what not. as I say.. there is some nutrients
introduced into the food... but... it's a bottom feeding diet... it's
carcasses.

Anything worth eating has been sold to humans.

include Procter & Gamble (Eukanuba and Iams), Mars (Kal Kan, Mealtime,
Pedigree, Sheba, Waltham's), and Nutro.

See! The companies only make pet food to have a way to get rid of
their rubbishes.

however! upon closer examination, yule see that these companies make
MORE money on pet foods than they do human food products.

Cat Protector said, Blue Buffalo Spa Select has no by products.

Am I going to run out and by BBSS? sure.. Next time I buy a premium
brand, BBSS it is!

This is also going to save me alot of money in vet bills.
