So my mom agreed that I could have Nick, who is my cat Jackie’s brother (they are a bonded pair.) We visit my mom’s every weekend so the brothers can hang out.
Now I can afford to adopt both boys if instead of eating 2 pouches/cans of wetfood a day, they eat one and eat 1/2 dry & half wet. (My Mom has agreed to keep buying him the same amount of wet food she does now .... she just has to many cats at4 cats.) Now I know wet is better & I will have to see if I can switch my picky eater into the cheaper wet fancy feasts instead of bff or fancy feast Tuscany. ATM Jackie eats 2 pouches or cans & 1/4 cup dry per day. I’m on SSI and buy Jackie mainly wet at my expense.
Is it worth putting Jackie on less wet (probably) so he can have his best friend back? I’m leaning towards yes but I would like your input (I would feed them blue buffalo wilderness dry or taste of the wild dry.)
Jackie (lynx) is calmer when Nick (black) is around. They love to play fight with each other! They also hang out and sleep by each other. Oh & I love Nick, he was the one I wanted to adopt. Nick was the runt and always my favorite though I love Jackie to. We wanted to adopt them out together but were unable to. Jackie however was returned and VERY stressed from it so I adopted him so he could live with his (foster) mom (me) & feel secure ....... instead of being adopted out where he may or may not get a good home. The boys were so happy to see each other, we resolved to keep their relationship going.
So your thoughts?
