Cheapest place to buy cat food in bulk??

r.a.i.n.b.o.w

Hi all, hope this is the right place for my query!

My 2 moggies eat Felix As Good As It Looks and Purina One (or the similar Sheba Essence or Whiskas Oh So Meaty etc). Both are pretty expensive when not on sale (around £4.50-£5.50 for a box of 12), but their majestys won't touch cheaper food.

So, where could I buy any of these at best prices?

Thanks! :money:

(ps: they're not allowed dry food for meals as one of them is prone to cystitis.)

We tend to bulk buy when we find them on offer! I think the Felix AGAIL might still be on offer in Sainsburys at the moment for £3 a box.

If you don't use the site already, keep your eye on www.petsathome.com They always have various offers on both wet & dry cat food & if you spend over £29 I think it is, delivery is free. I tend to stock up on my boy's favourite foods when they are on special & it's such a treat to have it delivered to the door, especially as I don't drive.
Occasionally they will have an offer that is only available in store & not available for online orders though, which can be a bit annoying.

Switch to tins and save a fortune. Felix tins are around £7 for 12 but they are 4 times the size of those expensive pouches.

As said above, Sainsbury's do a 12 box of AGAIL for £3 on special offer quite often. Pets at Home also do specials on AGAIL. There's no limit on how much you buy, so we just stock up to the max when these offers are on. Hope you've got good storage space!!

As others have said, keep your eye on offers in different stores. I can usually get Felix as good as it looks (yeah mine only it too!) on offer from somewhere when I buy in bulk.

HappyMJ - AGAIL isn't in tins is it?? I thought they only made pouches of that range!

AGAIL and Oh So Meaty are brand names for pouches. Felix does tins and Whiskas does tins it's not exactly the same but it is very close and at a much cheaper price. My cat hates PAH tins refuses it completely but loves AGAIL but she will eat the Felix tins with as much passion for the AGAIL. I give her up to 4 pouches of AGAIL a day (£1.00) or just 1 tin of Felix (40p).

Ah right. I gave up buying Felix tins or any other tins a while back as they just get thrown in the bin. Have 3 cats and they leave it to go bad in their bowls so i end up buying AGAIL pouches just so there's no waste!

Yes I admit the last little bit in a tin usually does get binned. It's silly but it's worth wasting a little and spending much less. Can't 3 cats eat 1 tin in one sitting? I thought if they'll have a pouch each that'll be close enough to 1 tin....

half a tin at most would be enough for my cats in one sitting but then they won't eat it all. With pouches, I give half a pouch to each cat, so I end up with half a pouch spare for next feed. That's all they will eat at a sitting usually.
