online cat food shopping?

Hi folks, can anyone recommend a good (cheap) place to buy food online for my cats? I have a lovely man on the market who sells wet food, so it's dry that I would like to get a bit cheaper if possible.
Thanks in advance.

    Pet planet and Zooplus are both decent sites and they often have promotions on certain brands. I do only find them considerably cheaper when they have a sale/promotion on though.

    Pet Supermarket are also good.
  • Zooplus - I often get 10kg sacks with either 2 or 4 kg free & still cheaper than I can get the 10kg ones elsewhere

    They also do good offers & I can get a 10kg sack for around £35 - when the RRP of it is £60!

    I guess it depends on what brands you feed?

    SMashing, thanks guys. I will have a look at the ones you suggest.
    As for which brands...any really. They eat pretty much anything, the only ones they don't seem to like are the supermarket own branded ones, but otherwise they'll eat anything so long as they don't have the same thing too often, then they seem to get bored.

    You can always order Butchers Classic cat food from Tesco/Asda etc as part of general online shopping.

    My lot loved it, I forced them onto Animonda carny but TBH they prefer Butchers Classic. It comes in Fish or Meat variety.

    Ops- you after dry food I see....
  • I feed mine Burns - best quality value dried food - sometimes I get from local vets or from Petsupermarket or zooplus

    Our cat has to have food designed to stop his urinary tract crystals returning, which is lots cheaper on zooplus. also they do free delivery over £25. If you buy regularly it's worth paying for their discount plan too... I saved a further £15 last year by the time I'd removed the cost of the discount plan itself. (about £3 ish for 5% off every order) I do buy cat litter from there too though, and stuff for the rabbit, which probably makes it more worthwhile.

    Zooplus are great - I buy all my cats' dry food from there (Applaws). I used to buy the Applaws wet food as well, but they don't do the variety that my cats will eat, so I have to pay a small fortune to get it from Amazon instead.
