We used Blue, the kittehs loved it but it’s expensive so we switched to Purina Complete which they love and they don’t throw it up after eating and their coats look excellent. After the depression shows signs of recovering, then we’ll go back to Blue. I’m afraid that I can’t imagine that happening until things get much worse, plus we won’t have a chance of recovering until O leaves and we already know the GOP is appeasing and bowing and scraping to more people than Odinga.

I’ve never heard of Wilderness brand wet food. Is it good and how much is it and the size of the can? Thank you.

You bring up an excellent and important point I failed to make. If you love your kitteh, keep em indoors. They last longer, they’re safer and you don’t have to worry when they don’t show up on time. Plus, when you have an outdoors kitteh, the kittehs could have more than one family. If you live on a farm or out in the country, then it might be reasonably safe to let them go outdoors because they really do love the outside. The only thing I can think of is predators but if I were in that type of situation, I would consider letting them go outside; maybe talk to the neighbors as well as the local vet that people trust.

I know Blue is expensive, but that's a relative term when you consider their overall health, quality of life and saved trips to the vets. I usually buy the 20 pound bag at PetSmart when it is on sale (i.e., usual price is $35.00 but I got it last time for $31.00 and another $5 off coupon) and it lasts the two of them for about 1 1/2 to 2 months. They love it, they are healthy and, it sounds gross, but their poop doesn't really stink!

I made a mistake about the wet food, it's Wellness brand, not Wilderness. It is the chicken formula and it's grain free. The small 3 oz. can is about $1.39 and the larger is a little bit more. I could buy the larger one and save money but Stella won't eat it if it is older than two days once it's opened (I know, she's spoiled rotten!). She eats a half can at night and she usually indicates she wants it by sitting up on her spot and waiting. No meowing, no dirty looks, just assuming I will notice her and get up and prepare it. She's a cool kitteh!

I remember the comedian, Gallagher, had a funny routine where he talked about finally finding a cat food his cats would eat and then making the mistake of letting them see a stack of it in the cupboard 'cuz then, "They don't like Friskie-kitty anymore, noooo, they want Tender-vittles now!" "But, then I thought, if I was a cat, I wouldn't want the same thing every day. I'd want a little variety. How come they don't make butt-flavored cat food, or little birdie or mouse? Did your cat ever bring you home a tuna?!". He was hilarious.
