Hello Everyone
I live in Malta (central Europe) and besides having 6 cats in house i currently feed 16 strays almost all neutered (the once not yet belong to a new colony i just started to care off, last weekend).
I read lot of cat nutrition on the internet and i must admit it gets scary to learn what our pets food contains, at the same time with 16 ferals i really cant do miracles with my low budget and food here is very expensive. I am currently feeding the strays 'Simba' food in cans of 170g (main ingredient fish) together with Royal Canin for Strays dry food. Royal Canin in Malta came with an offer on the 15kilos bags of 35euros.... which at first it seemed like a good idea but when i bought it... the main ingredient was very disappointing.... cereals. I will be buying Bonmascota next as it is far cheaper and main ingredient is Chicken at least.
Simba cat food is expensive for 16 cats 170g per can and it costs 51c of a euro each, with 16 cats i have to use at least 6 daily and the cats have to have only dry in the evening It pains me.
Was reading food which is by Purina is the worst food, does anyone knows if it is true cause i was going to try Friskies/Felix both by purina, also what about Whiskas?
We do have cheaper food, some pet shops sell cans of 6 for 2.33 but am afraid of the quality, any suggestions? Probably i should not think too much as it is better than them starving...
When i`ll learn how to post pictures i`ll post some of my lovely ferals.
