    Friday Cat - with 6 cats how do you spend 37 per month on Grau??????????????????????? Yo feed them a spoon a day each??????


    :D

    Cross posted ;) they get 100g (approx) per cat per meal, and as only 4 of them like it, an 800g tin lasts for two evenings ;)

    Ps. I have "only" five cats, not six, much as I'd like another, I don't think hubby would let me :rotfl:

    I know - I am sending Fred over to Spike.. do not tell Spike pls .. he will not even notice one extra ....with his new job and seeing 387646342 around every day - he will think he is just imagining things when he gets back home to Daisy ;)

    Oh thanks for that - what am I supposed to do about Fred though? Fred does not eat dry at all... Nothing/Nada/Ever

    Hmmmmmm

    But if you feed better quality like Grau, he won't need a much, though he would need more than the 100g per day mine have ;)

    OK so equivalent of 400 gram tin per 4 cats per day?

    Right now they have 2-3 tins per day (Fred double portions as he does not eat dry at all) but I guess Grau would be more filling so perhaps...... Hmmmmm

    Yes, but that is of course in conjunction with dry which is fed in the morning. I find that Grau fills mine up very nicely and it is eaten with enthusiasm, though they much prefer the meat varieties over the fish ones.

    My lot have dry out all the time, free feeding dry so to speak.

    George prefers dry actually.
    Fred won't touch dry EVER.

    The other 2 cats are normal... LOL
