It is actually a small group of pet owners(in comparison to the large number of pet owners on the planet) who participate in forums and study in depth the quality of various brands of cat foods. Most people will shop in a grocery store and buy brands such as Iams or Purina because these companies make their foods available to everybody.
Innova, Wellness, Felidae, Life's Abundace, Merrick and so forth are the kinds of foods that people must either go to special stores to find(if they're lucky enough to live in an area where they can access these stores) or they must special order it from a website or catalog and pay extra shipping fees. This is not a convenience for everyone. Many people do not have this option, either they can't afford shipping fees or cannot travel the number of miles necessary to obtain these special premium foods. So what I would like to know is why don't these premium pet food companies make their foods available to everybody like the big name manufacturers of Iams, Purina and Hills do. Don't they realize the profit that can be made in doing so, and the benefit in allowing every pet owner easy access to the best?
