Oh that is a good deal! Wish the Petsmart weren't so far away. I always stock up when the supermarket has it on sale - but it's $0.50 per can then.
It is very difficult to find anything that is not Purina related at least in market's in here, of course some really cheap ones are not Purina related, but I like to stay clear of those.JTbo, you are right Purina does make Friskies! So now I wonder what that vet was thinking. His thoughts came out as we were talking about the best foods for my cat who was in the ER with urinary obstruction. He was saying that many of the current high quality grain free foods were still resulting in many cats coming in with urinary crystals and he thought some of the older classic foods had stood the test of time and weren't so bad.
:nod: That's my general thinking on feeding the ferals. It's just supplemental, for the most part.I have a comment.
IF we are fairly sure they are decent mousers and hunters, it is not necessary to give them first rate food for active cats. As they will fill up with first rate food themselves, ie mice and other trofées.
As long we know they are good hunters, even cheap fairly low grade food is OK. This works in any case for the farm cats I do follow sometimes.
Yikes! I must be doing something wrong! Reading thru the posts on this! I can't afford all that canned food! I've been feeding the ferals chicken gizards, livers and breasts, turkey, ham, tuna at about 5 to 10 ounces a day along with the dry food that's out there 24/7! The chicken livers are $1.69 for about 20 ozs. Tuna is $0.74 a can, the turkey and ham are bits and pieces that they package cheap and sell at Walmart The chicken gizzards and livers get baked then fed to them. I'm disabled with no income so I give them what I can, they do get fed every single day though!
you know meat or animal by products in friskies and other brands that say meat by product is dead dog and cats chicken liver organs euthinized animals of any species this one show was talking about it because this one woman was eating cat food and the guy trying to help her was trying to tell her about the secret meat of meat or animal by product if it chicken by product then its any part of the chicken if it says liver by product its any animal liver even cats and dogs that vets pounds etc kill or road kill they find will i can right a book on this so i'm leaving at thisif you can, forget the tuna and chicken livers and get the 13 oz cans of friskies. these can be purchased for about $1 a can so it would be cheaper than the tuna, same price as the livers and would be much more nutritious for the cats.
i don't know if you have one near you but petco has the 13 oz friskies for $27.94 for a case of 24 cans, and you can get it delivered.
Actually, if you read through this thread http://www.thecatsite.com/t/245614/...by-products-meal-or-rather-not-think-about-it you will see that meat by-product only contains meat from slaughtered animals, not pets or road kill or 4D animals.you know meat or animal by products in friskies and other brands that say meat by product is dead dog and cats chicken liver organs euthinized animals of any species this one show was talking about it because this one woman was eating cat food and the guy trying to help her was trying to tell her about the secret meat of meat or animal by product if it chicken by product then its any part of the chicken if it says liver by product its any animal liver even cats and dogs that vets pounds etc kill or road kill they find will i can right a book on this so i'm leaving at this
