I don’t have the freezer space, sadly.spanglechick
If you’ve got freezer space you might want to consider Katkin Club.
KatKin - A fresh take on cat health – KatKin Club
We design a personalised, fresh and perfectly portioned meal plan for every cat, using their age, weight, activity level and current body shape. We ensure every cat gets the right amount of nutrients and daily calories, just for themwww.katkin.com
They claim to be complete etc. it doesn’t smell bad, Cat likes it, no or very little waste. his breathe doesn’t stink, and vet says he’s well and thriving.
He doesn’t like any poultry, never has in any format so I don’t buy the duck, chicken or turkey. Same with fish so that’s out too. So he eats the beef and lamb (which seems weird for a cat, to me. I can’t imagine them hunting cow in a natural setting). They do pork too. And treats and litter. But no dried food.
The biscuits I buy are also complete, made and sold by the independent pet shop in Norwood. If I buy four at a time delivery is free.
The Katkin Club food is delivered frozen (and well insulated) every month. I can change the order up to three days before, and they prompt me to do so if I want to. I find the cost acceptable. It’s a little more pricey than supermarket stuff but I’m not throwing out half a bowl of uneaten sludge, which has always been the case with cats passim.
If you fancy giving it a go, I can provide the incentive code that’ll give discounts to both you and me.
Thanks Epona. yes its pretty well healed now, its coming back with a vengeance the fur now. dread locks in a couple of weeks.Looks like he's healed really well! Gorgeous Stan
. But at least the distance was not high as the roof, so he was fine.
So I chuck some food. I know for a fact now that they have been given food at 3 am, they will be here again same time tonight...
So chuck him some food.
It was an eventful night last night. Just after 2 am, I heard a cat making noises. Looked out the bedroom window as I thought it has to be Akiro. He kept making wailing noises. I couldn't see him behind the garden wall, so put jeans over the PJ and went outside. Looked up and there he was stuck on the roof. Called his owner who didn't answer (it was afterall past 2 am). Sent her a text and rang her doorbell. No answer. So thought, damn it, can't leave him up there. I dont have a skylight as I am on the second floor. So knocked on my top floor neighbour's door. she didn't answer (she wouldn't anyway-not at this time of night). Then it hit me, the top communal stairway has skylight. So climbed onto the bannister and managed to open it, while trying best not to fall down onto the stairway from the third floor and break my neck
It took me over an hour of trying to get a hold of him. he tried multiple times to come down, but would change his mind as the jump was too high. He was very tired as I could see his sleepy eyes. Gave him some food which he eat straight away. I have a gym jump cushion in the flat which the girls use to cushion their jump from the storage cupboard. So I grabbed that. put it on the floor hoping he would jump. Since it was a cushion, it wouldn't be as dangerous as concrete floor. He was tempted a few times, but changed his mind. Eventually just after 3 am, I had an eureka moment. I lifted the cushion it over my head and covered the skylight. Within a few seconds he climbed onto it and I lowered him down. But I was lowering him, he got scared and jumped down onto the stairs
After the successful rescue I look out the living window, and these two monkey were looking at my window for food.
Go into the kitchen to make a well earned cup of tea and see this monkey in the garden
He looks very happy and at home!

I really, really hope Akiro doesn't climb on the roof again! Or if he does, there's another way to get him down!
and will see who is available to sort it out. no idea how long they are gone for. was he left on his own? many questions but dont was to ask until they get back
He's so cute.
Lilith's the same. I briefly considered taking her to Birmingham to meet my family, but considering how jittery she gets being put in her carrier for the five minute walk to the vet, I'm not putting her through the 90 minute train journey plus the tube ride beforehand. It would traumatise her. In fact when she had her cold in May, my usual vet was full and they got me an appointment at a branch on the other side of North London. I had to take a tube and a bus and it had to be a day when there were a bunch of screaming kids on a school trip. I use the Underground all the time myself and don't think anything of it, but that day I could feel Lilith's fear at being taken down into this echoey dark tunnel and getting into a cylindrical screechy machine.
