Hello there! I've been practically tearing my hair out trying to come up with a new food for my cats. I went through a bit of a rough patch financially, so I regrettably had to feed them some cheap grocery store-brand dry kibble. But now that I'm getting things turned around, I'm looking to switch my babies to a high-quality diet!
I'd rather spend a little more, because we all know nutrition is important for long, happy lives. That said, I'm still not fabulously wealthy, and I have five cats, so trying to find a wet food that is both high quality and won't bankrupt me has been the real challenge. If you have any suggestions of what to buy (or where, for a discount!), please, please, please help me! So far petfooddirect.com seems to have been my best bet for ordering, but I wanna see what the more seasoned vets have to say.
A bit about my cats and what I'm looking for:
As I said, I have five cats. One is five, one is almost a year old, and the youngest three are almost six months old. Two of them are getting rather fat, and one is arguably a touch chubby. I attribute this to the dry food, and particularly, as of late, to the low quality dry food. Nevertheless, their weight is something to consider. They're all indoors. None of them are particularly picky. One of them has some weird urination issues; I think it's behavioral/stress, but just in case, I'd like to get something that'll help avoid any crystals, if possible.
I'd also like to find something grain-free, limited ingredient, without fish, if possible. So, to sum up:
1. Wet food
2. Grain-free
3. Limited Ingredient
4. No fish
5. Weight management
6. For indoor cats
7. As inexpensive as possible!
I know that's a tough list, so do your best, but any help would be much appreciated!
