No More Fancy Feast !

2cats4me · Jan 20, 2015

Wow , my cats have eaten two cans of the Great Choice 5.5 oz so far . I am glad they like it .

I am going to try the Daves next . I hope they like that one too.

Have you tried Soulistic? From what I heard, they are made by the same place that makes Weruva and BFF. I only buy the chicken ones. My fancy feast eater will even eat this, it is shredded chicken in a broth, and they all love it. I found Soulistic at Petco, it was less expensive than other brands I have tried.

Yeah , it is good to have one option like that . I tried it due to a review by @pinkdagger whose cats liked it .. I am glad I did ..

Hopefully they will like the Daves too .. That is $ 1.23 for a 5.5 oz can and I get a 10% for every 12 cans I buy ..

Great Choice. Is that Petsmart's house brand? I was going to say that I got a case of Weruva Paw Lickin Chicken from Amazon for $38.99. It's 24 5.5 ounce cans. Works out to $1.62 a can but if they don't like Soulistic they probably won't like Weruva either.

I find most cats enjoy the lower priced foods, mine love FF. Everything is good in rotation, as long as they don't get hooked on only one, then they get bored. Good luck with your quest! The bonuses are slowing at work so I too will search for economical options, especially if I retire.

Yes that was my issue with feeding FF . I fed them only that so they got addicted to it .. I learned my lesson there . We will do rotation now but still no FF ..

Yes , Great Choice is a Petsmart brand .. The 5.5 oz cans are similar to Friskies with a few minor differences .. My cats will not eat Friskies but they eat the Great Choice .

I can't really buy anything online as far as can food ..

I'm glad the Grreat Choice is working out well! I keep it as a constant part of my rotation and the cats like it. I find the same trend - the cheaper foods tend to be more popular. Kismet is huge on kibble, and she only dives into some wet foods. The ones she loves most? Fish flavoured Friskies and turkey flavoured Health Diet, both around $0.50/can. I tried to feed them Wellness, some in savoury chunks and some in pate, and it was like pulling teeth. I had to mix it into the cheap wet for them to eat it and it sat out way longer than any other food.

I can't complain, because I do save money, but I'm just glad I have raw to even out the quality levels a bit and she actually likes homemade raw.

Thank you so much . I had seen Great Choice in 5.5 oz cans at Petsmart before but never thought to try it . I was perusing through the reviews and saw yours on the GC so I decided to get a few cans .. So far my cats have eaten 2 cans .. Ocean Whitefish & Tuna , Liver & Chicken ..

Hound & Gatos Beef is a NO GO ...
It sat there all night and they never touched it .. This morning I gave them the other 1/2 with a little kibble on top and still not interested ..
I will try the Pork flavor next , then the Lamb, Chicken , Salmon flavor ...
They are challenging me but this time I will win ... Maybe

I tried the H&G chicken and it was a no go.

I don't get it .. It is really one of the best can diets there is and my cats would not touch the 3 flavors that I had ..

They like the Great Choice though. So that is one ..

I just tried Daves Beef & Chicken but they didn't like it . I am thinking it might be the beef so I am going to try the plain chicken next ..

I have not tried Great Choice but will give it a try. My kitties don't seem to like 'hooves'. I gave the case of H&G to a neighbor. Her 4 cats loved it. Go figure.

HELP PLEASE HELP.
Ok.
I live in Israel and where I buy my babies'a cat food do not have a big selection of dry and wet food without cereal. Their dry food is GO which they love and if by accident their plate is empty, little paws grab me talking all the time to show me!
The wetime food they eat is PL from Italy. I can get merrick chicken,meat,2 sorts of tuna and salmon. They liked one tuna and the salmon which of course i wouldn't give them. I just tried it. The rest they left so merrick is no good.
I just phoned another pet shop who told me that they have tons of wet and dry without grains, too many to tell me what and that i should go have a look-see.
That means a taxi drive.
i need advice. I'm sure they don't have the best but could somebody-somebodies give me lists to see if they have really good stuff.
Please help me.

Hello , I think the Merrick Tuna & Salmon flavor would be ok once or twice a week .. Is there a reason you do not want to feed the PL wet food " ?

I wish I could give you some food suggestions but I do not know what you have available there ..

I would suggest taking a ride to the pet store and get a few flavors to test on them and see which they like best ..
