What cat food do you buy for your cats?

Question

What brand? wet or dry? do you feed them treats? what do you consider when purchasing cat food? thanks!

Answer 1

1 CAT HAS MEAT (tinned) BECAUSE SHE IS SKINNY.

1 CAT HAS MEAT (tinned) BECAUSE HE HAS A SORE MOUTH AT THE MOMENT.

THE OTHER 3 CATS ALL HAVE DRY BICKYS.

KITTY CAT MEAT.

GO CAT BICKYS.

YUM YUM VERY TASTY.   IF YOU USE DRY KEEP WATER OUT ALL THE TIME IT MAKES THEM THIRSTY.   HOPE THIS HELPS.

Answer 2

Lets see my cat likes the Fancy Feast dry & wet..make sure they have water at all times with the dry food.  She likes the Temptation treats and the Whisker Lickins-just dont give them too much. =P.  

Answer 3

Felidae cat and kitten formula and Raw meat. I chose the Felidae brand because it has no corn,wheat,soy,or glutens.

When I feed canned food I feed Felidae canned,Wellness,Innova,or merrick.

Answer 4

I feed mine Innova or California Natural.  Wellness is great too.  The best way to find a good healthy brand, is one that you CANNOT get in a grocery store.  Look at the first few ingredients on the list.  Are they actual meat products or fillers and by-products.  Consider if they fill with corn and grains for if they fill with fruits and vegetables.  The price always comes into consideration, but if you are only buying a huge bag once a month 30$ really isn't horrible.  Although they may be more expensive it is a way better diet for your cat.  You do not need to feed your cat wet food, if you do not.  I don't feed mine any.

Answer 5

I used to feed my cats Meow Mix but now I switched to Friskies Feline Favorites (made with carnation milk).   About once a day they are treated with a regular sized can of Friskies canned cat food, and every so often they are treated with a couple pieces of Pounce cat treats for hairball control. I have 2 very spoiled male felines.

Answer 6

Dry food,Royal Canin.I have 3 neutered male cats.As they don't have any urinary problems I buy RC indoor,exigent,light,etc.Cause they don't like when I give them the same food every day.When buying cat's food...well,I just try to buy super-premium brands.

PS.By the way...the more expensive  the food--the less I pay.Cause if the food is cheap--they eat more.And if it is an expensive super-premium brand,high-energetic--they less they need it per day

Answer 7

I consider whether or not it was recalled during that massive recall about 1.5 years ago. I get Purina as they were the only brand to not have some sort of recall. We leave a bowl of dry cat food out and then he gets Tuna or treats whenever. He also gets ice cream and loves to eat weird stuff like french fries or broccoli. I don't usually feed him the "wet food". That stuff has so much weird stuff in it...a can of Tuna seems so much better...he loves it.  

Answer 8

I buy all three flavors of "fancy feast"....(of the dry cat food)   I want my cats to have what they like and that would be it.   I also buy them the snack "temptations"    and they really love it.   I have a maine coon cat and a blue point himalayan.   (my kids)

Answer 9

I buy wellness but i live in Asheville, which is like a really awesome Hippie town. It has no preservatives and is healthy for any cats. They have different categories for food like indoor cat, kitty, Senior cat exec.

Answer 10

I buy Special Kitty seafood blend at walmart. It's cheap, and they thrive on it.

I give them bits of people food as treats, they won't touch those rubbery things you get in a can.

My older cat especially loves it when I give her my yogurt container to l**k out the residue.

Mine are indoor/outdoor cats.

Answer 11

Royal Canin. Partially because they are siamese cats (RC has breed specific food for them.) Also they would always throw up the Science Diet, and I found out that the vets only recommend it because they get perks from it. But when I do feed them wet food I usually go with Nutro or Science Diet, sometimes Fancy Feast.

Answer 12

Whiskers

My cat likes lamb or chicken in jelly

she hates things with gravey

Sometimes we buy cat buscuits for her also from Whiskers

When I buy cat food, I just make sure I get what she likes

all cats are different.

All the best!

Answer 13

My Bengal get's d**k Van Patten's Natural Balance because she has a food allergy (lucky for me it goes on sell every few weeks at petco).  She also gets Whisker Lickins Chewy salmon flavored treats and once every two weeks a mini can of soft cat food.

My big orange tabby likes the cheap dollar store cat food and won't eat anything but. they also eat any bug they can catch.

Answer 14

We feed our cats a single can each of fancy feast in the morning and about a 1/4 cup of Iams Adult cat formula dry food in the evening (after work).  This tends to satiate them better then just dry or wet, and it gives them a little variety.

We do give them some pounce every now and then (I think it has cat crack in it).

We consider reputation of the manufacturer and the quality of food as well as if the cats like it.

We tend to avoid a lot of seafood due to the potential kidney complications resulting from too much iodine, mercury and sodium.

Answer 15

I give my cat Iams, usually chicken (the orange bag) but sometimes other flavors.  

I also have a one year old kitten, and I give him both wet food and dry food.  In the morning, I give him half of a can of Fancy Feast (he likes all of the flavors) and then I put dry food in his bowl for throughout the day.  Then I give him the other half can of Fancy Feast that evening.  So he eats wet Fancy Feast once in the morning and once in the evening and dry food in between.

Answer 16

I buy my kitten Whiskers pouches (UK by the way), and always have dry food out for her too. I buy that because she doesn't like the cheap stuff, in fact one kind gave her the runs! poor little thing, I felt so guilty!

Answer 17

Royal Canin and Gourmet

Answer 18

it depends on what you can afford. The usual brand i buy is Purina cat chow indoor & occationaly it will by the Iams digestive (pink bag) to mix in. They love it. Yet the food they love the most but is so expensive is the Nutro Brand cat food (its like $14.00 for a 3.5 bag) and i have 5 cats so thats not really an option for me unless i get an extreamly good deal for it. As for wet food mine all love the new Meow mix stuff & for cat treats they love Temptations.
