Which dry food is your cats favourite?

[Fluffycloudland77]

Asbo kitty only likes cheap kibble but is severely intolerant to maize.

I’ve bought a sample of Lilly’s kitchen chicken on the basis that the more ruinously expensive the more likely he is to eat it.

Applaws has been previously rejected.

Any more brands I should be aware of?.

Mine have Royal Canin Persian. It's what they've always had. They aren't bothered about food at all. And eat with no issues. They get a pouch as a treat a couple of times a week.

I did look on zooplus but I thought I’d check what the other cats liked first. Mumsnet being just the kind of place for expensive cat food made by unicorns under a full moon.

The wild freedom sounds interesting.

each Never buy the big bags. It’s the death knell on any dry food.

Another vote for Arden Grange chicken

Purina Pro Plan Kitten is her favourite. I got a sample from the vet and she loved it.

Ours likes Sainburys own brand cereal free

Purizon fo good sample sizes for a couple of quid why don’t you try a few different ones?

Honestly? Whisk as dry chicken flavour, or GoCat tuna.

I've tried her with the naice stuff and she just looks up at me with a, "Seriously?" expression.

It’s annoying isn’t it? He’d eat whiskas too. Tried him on amionda carney once, total disaster.

I’m emailing various suppliers as we speak.

Purizon does look good too.

The small ones last a week I think you can buy a set of three

Perfect fit - £4.50 for 700g in Tesco, sometimes they do 2 bags for £7. I’ve tried lots of other types including James Wellbeloved, Science Plan, also some cheaper ones - but Perfect Fit is the only one they like.

We go between Applaws, Lily's Kitchen and Wainrights depending what's on offer.

I don't know why people rave about Royal Canin - it's full of rubbish!

I know! Royal canin has little meat and is full of wheat or maize or other crap

Mine loves meowing heads in the pink bag.

sainsburys hypoallergenic

or encore

sainsburys hypoallergenic is wheat free and has added nutrients/omegas/probiotics

& its only £3.50 for a bag that lasted us almost a month, but we supplement with Thrive complete wet food

I don't know why people rave about Royal Canin - it's full of rubbish!

Who’s raving about it?

OP asked what our cats prefer, & mine love RC They have turned their noses up at some of the “better” brands recommended here.

They also have wet food, & they’re very healthy, so I shall continue buying RC until that ceases to please them & then I’ll think again.

I forgot encore.

Encores really high in protein. I have a free sample of wild freedom coming my way.

Morrisons are doing it for £3!

Probably not my local morrisons though. Will check later.

Encore is the same as Applaws

It’s a shame the supermarkets don’t do the great big bags like zooplus. It doesn’t work out cheap if you have more than one cat. Purizon do wild buffalo! It’s brilliabg value.

Yeah but they go off things in big bags. Asbo ate applaws consistently until I bought the big bag.

Ok, yes it was a new recipe but I still blame the big bag size 😹

Morrisons had the encore so I’ve bought that to try when his little mouths healed up.

I find encore quite hard mind never took to it but they do like their wet which Sainsbury’s rip off exactly

Asbo ate applaws consistently until I bought the big bag.

🤣🤣🤣 Typical!

I'm sidestepping my cat's fussiness by buying two different brands of cat food and alternating them at each meal. She seems to prefer being kept on her paws.
