[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 573183, member: 1233"] I really wish that I could get husband to see how quality food makes such a difference in the cat's life in so many ways. He will talk about it like he agrees, but if we run out he goes to the nasty cheap stuff. It drives me batty. This is the first Morgan his been on this food because I was unable to go and get it for quite a while (it is very hard to get around our feed mill and until lately I smply couldn't manage it with the health issues). husband INSISTED that the cheap stuff was fine, blah blah blah. When we did change foods? WOW. husband has spent this time telling EVERYONE how awesome the food is, how it is actually cheaper because the animal eats less and the box isn't as stinky and blah blah blah. But rather than even bother to open his mouth when we were getting low, or taking twenty minutes to go to the store, pay, and drive home, he lets us run out and then he wastes money on the cheap stuff. Those 2 mouths of food were ALL that the cat ate. The humane society will NOT give the animals food from an opened bag, they only take factory sealed bags. He told me that it was okay to do the cheap stuff because we would just donate what the cat didn't eat, and he KNOWS that you can't. I know he knows, because he told me about it. Donna, you are the one who first told me about TOTW. You posted that dog food analysis link a couple of years ago. It had a link Occupational Therapist (OT) a cat food analyss (not there anymore that I can find) and I checked it out and found a store near us. We ALL appreciate it, esp Cap'n Morgan and Tyler. thank you because he usually ends up dealing with the litter box, lol. You should have heard him about a week after we switched. He had a cold when we switched and when it cleared us he was shocked at how little the box smelled, lol. husband also got a scolding because changing a cat's or dog's food should be done slowly and gradually. Cats esp are very sensitive and it is easier than easy for their systems to get all messed up at abrupt diet changes. Then you have a lot of other problems because they don't feel good and can't always make it to the box or they vomit. Yuck.
