Middling stuff is fine.... Funnily enough, idiot cat hates Lily's kitchen too. And currently won't eat oily fish :rolleyes:
 
Last photo I promise!

Enjoying big hugs...

Thanks CRI exactly the advice I wanted. Some if the what food should I feed my cat websites are a bit conspira-looney. Or recommend I make my own cat food. Um. Maybe in another lifetime

My extremely fussy last resecue cat wasn't a big fan of cat food, and Im not a big fan of crap cat food so we had quite a battle. Trial and error lead to a compromise of a mixture of Encore, Nature's Menu, Applaws and Iams biscuits, frozen tesco coley portions and some chicken from my plate when i had chicken. He'd also occassionally eat Sheba, the steamed gently one (can't remember it's proper name).

I did look into 'make your own cat food' but decided against it in the end, lack of time as much as anything, and I also came to the same conclusion as you did about the 'what i should feed my cat' websites, some of those people are downright insane! :blink:

Good post. It's always worth considering what you are feeding and trying to avoid too much wheat or soya filler in some cheap foods (and of the ones you list, the ones I am familiar with are good), but there is no need to go nuts about it. I feed mine mostly Bozita wet with a bit of Royal Canin dry to top them up if they need a bit extra (one of mine used to have some sort of food anxiety and would gorge himself when we first got him, he was overweight at that point, but he has long since lost weight to a normal skinny Oriental build and settled down and they are all now good about regulating their own intake of food) and whenever they see the vet they are complimented on their good weight, condition, and coat.

Breeze - not actually barking at the neighbour's dog but snacking on cobwebs from the fence. Bit windswept today.

There you go Manter something to consider, is Idiot Cat getting his RDA of cobwebs?

I don't let the cats in the bedroom at night, Archie gets too excited and spends the night shrieking, padding around and kneading me before falling asleep on my head. So they get left in the living room with water and a litter tray overnight otherwise they bang at the bedroom door for hours on end. The living room which has a shaggy cream rug in it. A shaggy cream rug which I've just been trying to scrub cat puke out of. Lovely

Radar spends the night in the bedroom as that is the only time he gets cuddly, the other 2 are shut in the sitting room. If I let all 3 in the bedroom at night all hell breaks loose and we'd never get any sleep. The Ori boys are perfectly happy in the sitting room at night and Radar gets his cuddles in the bedroom.

Breeze tends to start the night out in "her" bedroom, but between 6 and 7, she comes in to stand (painfully) on my elbow and trill at me, or brings grey mousie (what was left of brown mousie has vanished) to play. If we've been away (or after I do something stupid like the tumble dryer incident,) she'll sleep in the bedroom and be quite cuddly.

In bed next to me right now. No idea where the Northerner gets to sleep.... But look at that belly!

Tis a magnificant belly (I'm sure more magnificant than Northerner's :) )
 
I was outside yesterday which seems to be a sign that the world is totally safe as far as the kittens are concerned - Loki saw me and came running across the road to say hello, nearly making the poor postman crash his bicycle :facepalm: :oops:

Sorry about your friend's cat fakeplasticgirl :( I suspect my boy might go the same way - he just doesn't seem to have any road sense at all
