Cats were munching in the kitchen apart from suicidal Macius the baby who wanted to nick Zarta's bone by putting his matchsticks paws into her cage.. sigh.....

OP if you can get to Manchester I can give you some wet cat food from our kitten's trial and error days. I have a lot of Bozita, so PM me if you can collect it.

That is a very kind offer, but unfortunately i'm not able to get to Manchester.

Why, are they indoor cats?

ETA

I have 6 rescue cats and they cost me about £11 per week.

There are no gardens round here so they have 2 litter trays.

Wow that's very good at only £11!

Ha ha, you caught me out!
I buy whole minced wild rabbit now, but my butcher used to give me the heads and offal which he trimmed when he sold rabbit to restaurants. It all went in the mincer...teeth and all...and the cats love it.

Amazon have some great deals on cat food. Might be worth a look:

As for cat litter,ask your neigbours if you can have their old newspapers & use that shredded up.OK you'll have to change it a couple times a day,but it'll be free....

Four tins a day, any food scraps they can beat the dogs to and anything they can catch!

Dalek, I am not sure which litter you are currently using but this one from Zooplus has recently got good reviews from a member on another forum
http://www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/cats/cat_litter/tigerino/tigerino_clumping/293795
She says it clumps even better than Oko and it's quite a bit cheaper.
I know these wood litters look very expensive up front compared to cheap clay ones, but as GR can attest they last for ages ( even if they cant contain ALL the cat poo pongs, eh GR? )

I'm currently using lidl's clumping grit litter - £1.79 for 10kg.

People are saying that wood goes further.
