    Is Iams food bad?

    Just because another very commercial organization (PETA) posts a very emotional website claiming Iams is cruel to animals does not necessarily make it 100% true. While Iams has admitted to animal testing, the research centre that was posted on Iamscruelty was not even owned by Iams or Proctor...

    Wet Food

    She LOVES her dry food!! I am feeding her Natural Balance Venison and Green Pea currently. As for her not liking the Iams, I would say out of all of them, she likes that the most. I have tried Merricks, Natural Balance Wet, Nutro (which she absolutely refused!). I have to be careful though...

    Wet Food

    OK now I am really confused! I was reading the article on the transition from dry to wet food and it indicates that the average cat will eat between 4-6 ounces of wet food per day. The Iams pouches are 3 oz each and there feeding instructions state 2 pouches per 5 lbs of weight. So in a day...

    Horrible kitty breath

    Can I ask what exactly does foul breath mean? Dita has what I would categorize as Kitty Breath! It smells a lot like a fish market. Would that be a foul smell? It seems to smell the worst when she gets up from her afternoon nap. I know it may sound a bit weird, but what exactly should a...

    Help with Wet Food

    I would like to try Meow Mix, but I can't find them here in Canada. They sell the dry food at the two grocery stores that I go to (A&P and Food Basics), but not the wet food. They do sell what seems like 50 different types of Fancy Feast as well as Friskies and a bunch of other junk. I have...

    Hello Everyone!! I currently feed Dita Natural Balance Dry food (less than 1/4 cup per day) and then 1 full package of Iams Select Bites divided up into two feedings, once in the morning and once at night.

    Just found a grub/worm in cat food! Advice pls...

    Its just such a shame that we have had so many problems with their products. Their Canadian Head Office and mill is right down the street from us and I would like to support companies in our local community, but we have just had way too many bad experiences to continue.
