I have been using the regular pates lately there have been no coupons for them.  Does anyone know if the friskies plus or rise and shine have low carb options(have yet to go in store to see if any are pate/further look into this)

I was mainly using liver and chicken and turkey and giblets.  My cats are not fussy at all but needs to be fish free or limited fish due to urinary issues.

I'm pretty sure the Rise and Shine kinds are all chunks/gravy (high carb). I do think Plus comes in paté. . .yup, but seems like a lot of fish flavors. This one appears to have similar ingredients to Turkey and Giblets: http://www.friskies.com/Cat-Food/More-Friskies/Friskies-Plus-Classic-Pate-Homestyle-Casserole

I'm buying Friskies from here right now: http://www.doggiefood.com/frisies-canned-classic-pate-mixed-grill.html If I buy the 13-ounce cans, they're only 86 cents each after the 15% discount (code at the top of the page), plus they e-mail coupon codes all the time so sometimes I get 20% or 25% off, but always at least 15%. I've never found it cheaper anywhere else. And the UPS guy gets to haul it around for me :tongue2:!

Willowy is right...the Rise and Shine all look to be in gravy, so would not be low-carb. And the only Plus one that doesn't contain fish is the Turkey and Giblets, which is also in gravy.

Thought I was missing flavors cause there is so little selection on the rise n shine.  The plus I have gotten in past for the other cats as a treat, only one is food controlled diabetic others have no issues but I try to feed them all low carb, fish as a treat, or to trap cats.

Thanks Willowy:)!  Having a few cases delivered is tempting at those prices! Considering Petsmart has gone up so much and no coupons will apply. And they only have a case of each flavor in at anytime:S

I am running out of my stock, it is a sad time :p

Yeah, availability is the main reason I buy online :/. Walmart only has one case out at once, and Petsmart only has one case of each. And just try to get someone to go get you some cases from the back :tongue2:. So I make a monthly order, and the UPS guy teases me about breaking his back. He's just lucky I don't order litter online. . .:lol3:

Best bet locally is petsmart for selection and cost but the lack of coupons is adding up.  they used to offer $1 off on 24 cans then went up to 36 now have not scene coupons at all for the regular friskies-just the plus and other newer ones.

I go through ALOT! Doggiefood I am going to try soon as that is GREAT prices.

When we moved I ordered cat trees-like 8 or so 4 smaller ones came one day. Next day another ups actually met Fed ex as they were both bringing trees up...That was something else:S  Then few months later I ordered another tree.  Sadly all those trees but 2 are no longer here...they killed them.

I actually don't mind them meeting...its them meeting my mail carrier who delivers all our ebay stuff we resell.  That poor man must dread our house.  He is better then his sub.  The sub won't even knock he just leaves a notice.  Found out one day when I watched him walk up put mail in box and walk away.
