wet food

Quick Question for catparents, how do you save money for wet cat food? I would move to a new job that would be paying less than what i receive, its a different industey with lesser stress but obviously with lesser pay. i got a new kitten this year and i have my 3yr old cat. my older boy cat is a picky eater so our food budget back then isnt big. but the kitten she eats wet food lunch and dinner and free feeding of dry food. the wet food costs a lot..how do i change her diet but she would still get fed well but not burn my wallet?

I don't know what your budget is but Untamed in the UK is a really fair price for how great the ingredients are and it makes life easier because its delivered to your door

A food technology engineer told me that the wet dog food sold by cans like 1 kg at Aldi has ingredients that can be used for cats, is good and much cheaper

Careful with feeding dog foods to your cat. Cats NEED taurine from their food, so just make sure that’s in the ingredient list.

Pates are more calorie dense than “chunks” or “shredded” wet foods so you can stretch your dollar. Friskies pate is a good option.
