Best cheap/own brand cat food

Not strictly own brand or cat food as such but one of my cats will only eat Felix AGAIL Ocean Feasts and only recently did I realise there were two different boxes. He looks at me in disgust if I buy the sardine one by accident. Anyway he mostly likes to lick the jelly off which really annoys me as it's a complete waste so what I do now is buy some really cheap ham - value slices and when he's crying and I know he's recently eaten I give him some ham. It's cheaper than opening and wasting a sachet of the good stuff and he chomps it all up.

Ham is much too high in salt for pets, please don't feed them this.

Thanks for that Fire Fox, rest assured he only gets a little a day but point taken

Good info about the Classic food, it's nice to see so many recommendations. I'll try mine on this next time I go shopping, see if she fancies it!

Not own brand, but I've had a stock up on a few foods today. They gave me a 10% off voucher in PAH for my next spend - think it's only valid for a short time.
Then got some Felix GAIL for £3 for a box on special from Tescos. This is for one of my cat who has been very poorly and off her food, but she will eat this!
Just about remembered to get a loaf of bread and some milk for myself!

I've just googled TopLife and there's a pet forum thread here which does suggest they are in partnership with Bozita.

Still only seems to be one flavour and Asda though. Haven't done the math to check costs against Zoo+ by the time I've bought Bozita on special, got 5% for bulk order and 5% cashback

Toplife is only cheaper than Bozita when it's on offer, but it does have the advantage of not having to be bought in bulk/ available from the supermarket for those that want that. Toplife jelly is definitely is not the same texture as Bozita unless Bozita have changed the product, so it's interesting to hear they are in partnership.

Butchers Classic is one of the best supermarket cat food - actually better for them than Sheba so you are doing them a favour!

I have saved SO much money & time shifting mine to Butchers classic (I used to buy food & litter at zooplus, Animonda carni, smilla or Bozita but needed to cut my expendire all around & Butchers was suggested, now I buy their litter at Asda too - wood chip/ fullers earth (50/50). Most major supermarkets now stock it

I changed them from GoCat to Burns dried & stuck with it - cheapest from Animed.com. Every £1 saved counts

Well order Bozita cat food from Zooplus after such great reviews

It arrived last Fri. To date my three cats have basically nibbled at it but not eaten a full bowl. I have mixed it with other food, tuna and sardines as well as on its own to no avail. Even the stray cat I feed has not eaten all of it and he normally eats anything!

Looks like I need to find another brand to suit the fussy foursome!
