I have run out of cat food and the dds are in bed!

[notnowbernard]

I cannot get to the shop and DP is at Glastonbury so nobody around to pop out

Thought there was another pack of food in the cupboard but no!

Is it ok to give him some tinned tuna (in spring water)?

yes
although he'll probably not eat much of it

tuna

I'm no expert but that sounds like it would be fine

especially since it is in spring water

I didnt think cats could digest Tuna properly? something to do with Mercury levels apparently

As a one off, a tin of tuna or salmon is fine cat food. Our cats love tuna, but due to the high levels of mercury they only get it once ion a blue moon.

our dog used to have baked beans when I ran out of dog food. probably not very helpful...

i ran out today and mine made do with a raw egg til i could get to the shop

Right, tinned tuna it is then. Will have to do until the morning when I can get to the shop

The only other alternative is sardines in a spicy tomato sauce or mackerel with a whole chilli pepper (probably not ideal)

Thanks all

He wolfed it down and licked the bowl clean

My cat loves tinned tuna. Have I been inadvertantly giving her mercury poisoning?
