    I know :D

    All three were rescues and don't always get along. I never intended to have three, it just kinda happened :p

    I was looking after them until homes could be found, but then they told me their names, and once they have a name they're family. You can't rehome family.

    Trouble was found in an alley at 5/6 months, hissing, starved, wetting herself when anyone came near, and half feral. The local cat lady warned me it could be too late to tame her, but she came around after I spent three weeks sleeping on the floor next to her cage :rotfl:.

    Missy and dexter were 'found' dumped at 8/10 weeks. I assume they're siblings.

    Can't believe people can be such idiots :(

    At least I'm saving money on the heating with three fuzzy hotwaterbottles - does make it harder to convince myself to get up in the morning...
    That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.

    I'm having trouble logging into topcashback, but I think I've put together my order - Planning on placing it on Friday and wanted a last check on opinions.

    I'm aiming to get a wide selection of 'decent' wet food, so want people to tell me if any cr*ps slipped in (if you wouldn't mind). I know some people don't rate the Bozita, but I know they like it and it doesn't disagree with them.

    Whats it looks like atm:

    Dry
    4 x 10kg Porta 21 Feline Finest Sensible - Grain Free

    Wet
    16 x 370g Bozita Chunks in Gravy - Chicken & Turkey & Rabbit
    16 x 370g Bozita Chunks in Gravy - with Reindeer
    16 x 370g Bozita Chunks in Gravy - with Beef
    16 x 370g Bozita Chunks in Gravy - with Rabbit

    12 x 400g Lily's Kitchen Succulent Chicken Parfait for Cats
    6 x 800g Grau Gourmet Grain-Free - Turkey & Lamb
    6 x 800g Animonda Carny Adult Mixed Pack - Beef Selection
    6 x 400g Catz Finefood Can Mixed Trial Pack II

    Treats
    6 x 200g Feringa Cat Food Mixed Pack - 4 Varieties (free)
    6 x 70g Greenwoods Adult Cat Food – Tuna - 6 x 70g (free)

    Also
    2 x 14L Biokat's Micro Cat Litter

    I've already got around 10kg of Porta left in the fud bin, 30 tins of butchers classic (a mix of meat and fish), and two kilos of tesco value chicken wings in the freezer.

    Looks like with the discounts and cashbacks it works out at around the £200 mark for the bulk of a year of fud.
    That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.

    Just FYI (I know you've done your order now!) I feed Applaws dry food as it's 80% meat, and there aren't many dry foods which are. They then have Applaws or Encore wet food, depending on what they happen to like / have not rejected this month.

    If they had their way, they'd eat Whiskas and Iams crap, but I keep reminding them that it's the cat equivalent of fast food, and I'll starve myself before that happens. They don't listen. Or care.
    ;)

    Your cats are gorgeous, by the way - esp the first one!
