Baghira (my parents second cat, she is the sister to Sputnik) taught my parents to STOP buying the dry food which they used to buy...with my assistance. Last week mum and I bought a packet of kitekat dry food as I told mum to do the TEST...so we opened one new box of kitekat dry food and one box with the usual cheap one they got....the one from kitekat, which costs about 1.50 Euro or so more, was empty after 3-4 days...the other one needed about 2 weeks to get emptied and only got emptied faster at the end as I added the tin food on top of that instead of putting it in separate bowls.... Now yesterday my dad moaned if anyone would bother to feed the cats, where I told him that I did feed them twice already....and reminding him that mine are pretty fine with eating mainly dry food.... So he told me if I can teach my cats then to stay away from parents cats tin food... so mum and I went to the store again and bought kitekat dry food again...and voila...their cat Baghira was way more interested in that dry food than on his cheap can food he was using So finally the message got through to him that the money value on the box itself does not decide how much it costs to feed the cats...cause if they buy cheaper dry food which they don't like and so begg all the time for can food, then it gets costly with the can food....(they eat 4-5 cans per day, due to them being 7 cats). And now finally we can start to feed them after my plan, which is to use apprx. 2 boxes of kitekat per week plus 4-5 cans...which comes at a cost of 6,75 Euro a week....instead of 10.80 Euro, which was the case before with 1 box cheap dry food plus 4 cans per day tin food... Thank god, he got it at last
